The final product will be jennies lyophilized milk. At the beginning of the project the main focus was the study of the breed Asinina of Miranda because those were the animals chosen as milk producers. Then it was also important to study this type of milk once jenny milk has many interesting properties, such as the fact that is a hypoallergenic milk and also because its constitution is similar to human milk. This type of milk is gaining the attention of specialists and producers for these reasons. The project was developed in a 46,675ha area of land in Beja (Alentejo). The animals were divided in separate facilities according to the production cycle. The production plan was conceived in order to reach the desired final product. After characterization and organization of the farm, financial analysis of the project was elaborated. If the producer adopts the market price for the final product (up to 300€/kg of lyophilized milk) the project will be viableporfarm projectdonkey jennies milklyophilized milkfinantial analysismaster thesis201921871
