Research Intersts: Dairy industry of Pakistan is buffalo oriented. The buffalo is a water animal and thrives well in irrigated areas, where it has easy access to water and plenty of fodder. It is word’s second most important milk producing species after cattle. Buffalo is considered to a neglected species and its high milk potential for milk yield is underutilized. During early lactation, buffalo has greater requirement for energy, but energy intake may be limited by its capacity for dry matter intake. The energy intake may be increased by feeding more concentrate or supplemental fat. Feed large amount of concentrate alters ruminal fermentation and often depresses milk fat synthesis. Thus it is imperative to add different fat sources in the diet of early lactating animals to improve energy status of lactating buffalo.
Research Intersts: Animal Production especially in the area of Animal Breeding & Genetics with particularly reference to quantitative Genetics/Population Genetics. The interest lies in estimation of environmental and genetic parameter estimation in livestock species. The research area is focused in meat animal breeding and data analysis for growth, production and reproduction traits. The genetics resistance against diseases in farm animals is also research interest.
