This study was carried out in the sub-prefecture of Tioroniaradougou on 30 cattle farms to identify the real conditions of milk production in the area. The lack of reliable data in the sector as well as the lack of control over milk production parameters prompted this study. Over two months, a survey was carried out on these farms followed by the collection and estimation of the different amounts of milk on the said farms. The results showed that 63.33% of breeders are of Burkinabé nationality, 23.33% of Malian nationality and 13.34% of Ivorian nationality. The Fulani were the most numerous (70%), followed by the Malinkés (16.67%) and Senufos (10%). Most of breeders (86.67%) were illiterate. Almost all breeders used night park, and the herd was made up of Zebus (93.33%), where cows represented 47.33% of the herds. The diet was based entirely on natural pasture, only 20% of breeders distributed food supplements. The herds were watered in the rivers. Total milk production produced in the 30 farms during the month was 9,408 L with a variation of (130 to 615.5 L/Farm). Regarding the daily milk production in the villages, it varied from 9.33 +/- 0.46 L to 13.27+/-2.88 L. This study made it possible to highlight the characteristics of cattle breeding and their low level of production in the sub-prefect.
