Response of feeding fenugreek seed powder as supplement on lactating buffalo

Abstract

This research investigates the impact of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) supplementation on lactation performance, breeding health, and other physiological parameters in buffaloes. A controlled experiment was conducted over a six-month period involving lactating buffaloes divided into two groups: a control group and a fenugreek-supplemented group. Data on milk yield, milk composition, reproductive health, and metabolic parameters were collected and analyzed. The results indicate that fenugreek supplementation significantly enhances milk production and improves breeding health without adversely affecting metabolic health. This study provides valuable insights into the potential benefits of fenugreek as a dietary supplement in buffalo farming.
