Solution(By Examveda Team)

Average period of lactation in buffalo is 281 days.
The lactation length is about 280 - 300 days in the Murrah breed and about 320 days in the Nili-Ravi breed.
Milk yields range from 1500 to 1800 kg for the first lactation with a steady increase to a peak in the fourth lactation, and are then maintained at peak levels until the ninth lactation.
