Mehsana

A tier

Mehsana buffalo arose in northern Gujarat as a productive blend of Surti and Murrah influences, combining solid yield with the rich milk Gujarat dairies need for powder, butter, and fluid sales. The milk is white and high-fat, slightly less extreme than pure Murrah yet excellent for commercial processing. Flavour is familiar Indian buffalo dairy—sweet, full, and clean when cooled promptly. Amul-era cooperative systems made Mehsana country a milk powerhouse. Cooks use the milk interchangeably with other buffalo milks for paneer, kadhi, and sweets. Breeding farms still select Mehsana for farmers who want volume without fully abandoning regional type.
