Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine phenotypic variability of individual coagulation ability and coagulum characteristics of buffalo milk in the country. Examines the individual milk samples from 209 buffaloes reared in three herds in different regions of the country. Measurement of individual coagulation ability and characteristics of the coagulum were using Programmable Computerized Renneting Metter - Polo Trade, Italy. It is significant variation, which features in all three indicators. The lowest variational coefficient signs for A30, which characterizes the hardness of the coagulum - (0.251). In the other two signs established variational coefficients significantly exceed this one. There were differences in variability in different farms in the studied parameters.
