Abstract: The inclusion of sodium bicarbonate in the diet of lactating animals has been a topic of research due to its potential benefits in improving milk production and overall health because maximum. milch animals are in sub acute rumen acidosis in their early lactation due to the feeding pattern of high level of concentrate feeding. This study was done to observe the impact of sodium bicarbonate supplementation in buffalo and cattle feed, emphasizing its effects on milk yield, feed intake, rumen pH, and general health parameters. The findings suggest that sodium bicarbonate can enhance productivity in buffaloes by optimizing rumen function and nutrient absorption.
