Fifteen lactating buffaloes in mid lactation with similar age, body weight and milk yield were selected from dairy farms of the local farmers and divided into three groups of five animals each. Control group (T1) was maintained as per farmer's practices, while groups T2 and T3 were fed on concentrate mixture (@50; of milk yield) and roughage but ration of group T3 was provided additional urea-molasses-mineral block (UMMB) @ 300g/day/head for 180 days. The average milk yield (kg/day) was significantly (P 0.01) higher in group T3 (7.78 ± 0.37) than in groups T2 (7.25 ± 0.19) and T1 (5.65± 0.27). The milk fat content also improved significantly (P 0.01) in group T3 over control group. It was concluded that feeding of UMMB alongwith balance diet improved milk yield and fat percent as well as reproductive performance in lactating buffaloes.
