Summary:The paper reports work in the Ounagha region (Essaouira-Morocco) on a camel feed comprising press cake and pulp from the Argane tree. The enriched diet improved the microbial quality of the produced milk. This diet could help producers to develop a more nourishing, uncontaminated product in Morocco where camel milk is a significant dairy product.
