Abstract

Buffalo is considered as the dairy animal for modern times due to its higher adaptability and productivity in the changing climatic conditions. In India, large part of the milk production comes from small and medium dairy farmers. Buffalo contributes 45.44% to the total milk production in India. With only 3.65% of the total buffalo population of India, Punjab contributes 7.91% of the total buffalo milk production. In Punjab, around 70% milk production comes from small and medium dairy farms with herd size of 2 to 10 animals, another 25% from large/commercial herds and the rest from domestic (1%) and peri-urban dairies (4%), which are concentrated around big cities. In Punjab, buffaloes produce about 56.38% of the total annual milk production in the state. The current study was conducted in three agro-climatic zones of Punjab by selected 90 buffaloes farmers in the district viz. Hoshiarpur, Patiala and Mansa by simple random sampling method. The economics of buffalo was calculated on lactation basis. The average age at 1st calving was 43 months, and inter-calving period was 469 days, lactation length (days) was 281 days, dry period (days) was 188 days, average milk yield (liters/day) was 8.3 lts/day. The lactation-wise total cost of rearing buffalo was highest in 2nd lactation i.e. Rs. 95393 and the net profit was Rs. 52335 in 4th lactation period. Thus, buffaloes contribute positively to the income which makes its rearing beneficial financially.

印度旁遮普邦水牛生产性状及泌乳经济评价
水牛被认为是现代的乳制品动物,因为它在不断变化的气候条件下具有更高的适应性和生产力。在印度,大部分牛奶生产来自中小型奶农。水牛占印度牛奶总产量的45.44%。旁遮普仅占印度水牛总数的3.65%,却贡献了7.91%的水牛奶总产量。在旁遮普,大约70%的牛奶产量来自2至10头奶牛的中小型奶牛场,另外25%来自大型/商业牛群,其余来自集中在大城市周围的家庭(1%)和城郊奶牛场(4%)。在旁遮普邦,水牛生产的牛奶约占该邦年牛奶总产量的56.38%。目前的研究是在旁遮普的三个农业气候带进行的,通过简单随机抽样的方法,在Hoshiarpur, Patiala和Mansa地区选择了90名水牛农民。水牛的经济以泌乳为基础进行计算。平均产犊日龄43个月,间歇期469天,泌乳时长281天,干期188天,平均产奶量8.3升/天。泌乳总成本在第2期最高,为95393卢比,第4期净利润为52335卢比。因此,水牛对收入有积极的贡献,使其饲养在经济上有利可图。
