Meat

Mehsana

B tier

Mehsana buffalo of north Gujarat are a dairy breed developed from Surti and Murrah influences, important to cooperative milk unions that made the region famous for dairy enterprise. Meat is secondary to milk but steady from culls and surplus males. Lean buffalo meat from Mehsana systems suits everyday Indian curries and grilled boti when young. Cooperative-linked cold chains sometimes improve meat hygiene relative to informal markets.
