Abstract: The opening balance (herd strenth of murrah buffaloes as on 01/04/2012) was 150 heads (32 males and 118 females). The weight at first caving during currentthe current year was 535.71 kg. Buffaloes produced 82098 kg milk. Overall wet and herd averages were 5.66and 3.59 kg, respectively. On an average 62.92% of the total females were in milk.The milk analysis of 872 samles revealed fat, SNF and total solids per cent as 7.88.9.81 and 17.75, respectively. Herd strength for next year was maintained. The opening herd strength of Murrah buffaloes as on 01/04/2013 was 165 heads (38 males and 127 females). In all, 47 animals were deleted from the herd due to various reasons, whereas 57 animals were added due to new births (23 female and 34 male). The new calvings were well distributed over all the months of year, except April 2013 and March 2014 when no calvings took place. The male-female ratio of new calvings was 1.48-1.00. The closing balance of the buffalo herd as on 31/03/2013 was 175 (129 females and 46 males).
