With a daily milk output of 26.59 litres, a four-year-old Andhra Pradesh Murra breed buffalo has broken the record for milk production. Muthyala Satyanarayana, a milk farmer, is a resident of Mandapeta town in Andhra Pradesh's Dr. BR Ambedkar Konaseema district. Eight years ago, he bought the buffalo in Telangana's Nizamabad.

The buffalo set a record for daily milk output of 26.58 litres and won first place two times in competitions held at the state level in Mandapeta and Vijayawada. Two female and four male buffaloes were born from it.

According to media sources, Muthyala Satyanarayana said that the other two male buffaloes were with him while the other two male buffaloes had been taken by Semen Collection Center authorities. He said that when a female buffalo reached the age of four, she began producing more milk each day than her mother.

According to Central Herd Registration Scheme Officer D Rajeswara Rao, who confirmed the situation, high-yielding buffaloes have been identified in and around Mandapeta as part of the scheme in order to increase daily cattle milk output throughout the nation.

Every day, Satyanarayana feeds the buffalo with maize, figs, and bran while spending Rs 500 on fodder. In addition to residents of the Dr. BR Ambedkar district, many people from neighboring districts have been traveling to Mandapeta to see the buffalo with the highest production. Such natural miracles are known to occur sometimes. For instance, a 210-gram egg laid by a chicken in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, last year beat the record for the largest egg ever laid in India.

The bird belonged to a poultry farm in the Talsande village in the Kolhapur district, according to a story by the Times of India. According to experts, the egg laid by this Hy-line and W-80 type of chicken may have three to four yolks. On October 16 of last year, Dilip Chavan, the owner of this chicken farm in the Chavan Mala area, discovered the enormous egg for the first time.
