Introduction

The dairy sector in the India has shown remarkable development in the past decade and India has now become one of the largest producers of milk and value-added milk products in the world. The dairy sector has developed through co-operatives in many parts of the State. During 1997-98, the State had 60 milk processing plants with an aggregate processing capacity of 5.8 million litres per day. In addition to these processing plants, 123 Government and 33 co-operatives milk chilling centres operate in the State.

With the increase in milk production. Maharashtra now regularly exports milk to neighbouring states. It has also intiated a free school feeding scheme, benefiting more than three million school children from over 19,000 schools all over the State.

Indian dairy industry

Dairy is a place where handling of milk and milk products is done and technology refers to the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes.

Dairy Industry in India

More than 2,445 million people economically active in agriculture in the world, probably 2/3 or even more ¾ of them are wholly or partly dependent on livestock farming. India is endowed with rich flora & Fauna & continues to be vital avenue for employment and income generation, especially in rural areas. India, which has 66% of economically active population, engaged in agriculture, derives 31% of Gross Domestic Product GDP from agriculture. The share of livestock product is estimated at 21% of total agricultural sector.

Indian Buffaloes: (Dairy business Directory 1996)

Buffaloes are classified into two categories;

1) reverine (depending upon variation in their habitat & genome)

2) swamp

Swamp buffaloes: - 48 chromosomes

  South east asian countries

  Stocky animals, marshy land habitat

River Buffaloes: - 50 chromosomes

- massive in size and curled horns

- Prefer to enter clear water

World’s Buffalo population:

  147 million

  about 142 millions in Asia & Pacific

India:

  leading most buffalo populated country

  78 millions most of reverine

Milk production: About 95% of world buffalo milk (45.3 million tonnes) is produced in Asia &Pacific, while 64.4% is produced in India (FAO.1992)

From 1950 to 1992 milk production in the world increased by 4.26%

The % of total bovines slaughtered;

Total bovine slaughtered (%)

  World 17.1 to 17.4% or - 1.6% per annum

  India 15% per annum

  Asia 6.6%

Increasing trend of buffalo population in most of the Asian countries in Brazil and Italy

BREEDS

Classified on phenotypic & geographic locations;
Cockril (1982) = Buffalo river type; two sub groups;

1. Horns are closed and set close to head & are down swept ;eg. Murrah, Ravi, Mehasana, Jaffarabadi, Sambalpur

2. Horns are sickle shaped and unswept: e.g. Bhadawari, Kalahandi, Kanara, Manda, Nagpuri, Pandharpuri, Surti, Tarai & Toda

Buffaloes found in the north –eastern states and the eastern coastal region of India & in China South east Asian countries e.g. Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Srilanka, Burma, Laos, Kampuchea, Bangladesh etc. have been classified as swamp buffaloes on the basis of their genetic constitution (2n=48) & natural habitat.The breeds includes in these groups are Manda & Palakhemundi.

Production performance

Growth: The average birth wt.(Indian buffaloes) low 21 kg  High 41 kg
Higher in male calves than in females
Average daily gain of 548 gm between 3-6 months
                                       404 gm between birth to 36 months
Body weight at first calving- ranges from
                                       367 kg (Dharwati) to
                                       531 kg (Nili Ravi)
Higher growth rate in reverine breeds than swamp

Reproduction Performance: -
Most of the buffaloes are considered to be seasonal breeds with maximum calving taking place from July to November in almost all breeds
Buffaloes come in oestrus in cold month and are sub-fertile during hot month
Sub-fertility-> due to poor thermoregulaion in buffaloes and
Poor nutrition -> poor heat symptom-low heat detection (only ligno-cellulosic material straw /dry roughages)
