Soil organic matter content, total porosity , mean weight diameter,  water aggregate stability percentage and particle size distribution were  measured. The results showed that the MWD and WSA% as a function of some soil constituents( organic matter, total porosity, clay, silt and sand )  was represented by a highly  significant linear equations.

As for the laboratory part of the study, it was conducted in the laboratories of the Department of Life Sciences at the College of Science / Dhi Qar University for the purpose of separating the genetic material (DNA), conducting polymerase chain reaction and electrophoresis, and identifying genetic mutations in the studied genetic segment on the prolactin gene, The animals in the station were fed according to the season and year in terms of the availability of feed and the percentage of costs involved in raising cows, as well as depending on the general state of cow productivity.
