Synopsis

Chhattisgarh, located in central India, is endowed with abundant natural resources, extensive forest cover, and diverse agro-climatic conditions. The state is characterized by a significant tribal population, which contributes to its rich cultural heritage and preservation of traditional knowledge systems. Agriculture and livestock rearing form the backbone of the rural economy, supporting the livelihoods of a majority of the population. Owing to its high forest and tree cover, Chhattisgarh provides a favorable environment for biodiversity conservation and the development of indigenous animal genetic resources. Traditional livestock management practices followed by rural and tribal communities further play a vital role in conserving native breeds and maintaining ecological sustainability. Buffaloes constitute a critical component of tribal livelihoods in the Bastar region, providing draught power, milk, and socio-economic security under resource-constrained conditions.
