Housing and Management of Lactating Buffaloes
While planning large dairy farms, it is important to consider that the “buffalo is not a black cow” and that she has her own species specific requirement that are influenced by her anatomy, physiology, behavior and temperament. Thus it is important to design systems that will make it easy for buffaloes to adapt well to a given system. On the other hand, improper systems will lead to behavioral changes and could also lead to disease, injury and loss of productivity.
