The study was planned to see the effect of strategic nutrient supplementation on performance of lactating buffaloes in Katni district of Madhya Pradesh. The 12 healthy early lactating Murrha buffalos of 3rd lactation were selected on the basis of body weight, milk yield and milk fat from the dairies of nearby area of Krishi Vigyan Kendra Katni and they were randomly divided into 2 groups of 6 buffaloes in each group. Haemato-biochemical parameters were analysed. Nutrient intake of the animals was compared with the nutrient requirements given in feeding standards. The diet were strategically balanced by supplementing deficient nutrients in the diet. The results revealed that maximum weight loss occurred in buffaloes of T1 (control) group while, it was minimum in those maintained in treatment (T2) group. The milk yield and milk composition like fat, solid not fat, protein, lactose and TS were improved in the treatment groups. The hemato-biochemical and serum mineral concentration data clearly indicated positive effect of dietary treatments on buffaloes.
