dc.description.abstract | A study was conducted to examine the housing and summer management practices of buffalo farmers in the Namakkal district of Tamil Nadu. A random sample of 120 farmers was selected for this study. The findings revealed that 75% of the farmers housed their buffaloes in thatched roof sheds with mud flooring, accounting for 91.66% of the cases. Additionally, 16.66% of the respondents provided cement concrete mangers for their buffaloes. Most farmers were found to heap dung in manure pits, which was later utilized as farmyard manure. The buffalo sheds generally had proper ventilation. The study suggested that enhancing the knowledge of housing management among buffalo farmers in the Namakkal district could lead to improved buffalo management and subsequently better livelihoods. | |
