In buffalo production system, male buffalo calves are removed by farmers. Because, farmers don't want to give milk to calves and secure milk from dam for sales. Normally, the infertile, unbred buffaloes and neglected male buffaloe calves are being used as meat animal and the most of the farmers do not rear male buffalo calves that may be culled or sold.
