Abstract :  In this study an attempt was made to estimate the cost of milk production in buffaloes. A total sample size of 480 dairy farmers was selected for the present study from Kanchipuram, Erode, Nagapattinam and Erode district of Tamil Nadu. The cost components were classified into fixed cost and variable cost. Among the different cost components the variable cost engulfed a lion share of 92.32 per cent and the share of fixed cost was only 7.68 per cent. Among the components of vari- able cost, the labour cost was the highest (27.02 per cent). The expenditure on concentrate feeding (26.34 per cent) was slightly lower than the labour cost followed by cost of dry fodder (18.87 per cent) and green fodder (17.37 per cent). In the total cost of production the total feed cost was the major component (62.57 per cent). Among the different categories of farmers the cost of production per litre of milk was the lowest in landless farmers’ category (Rs.7.83) and was the highest in small farmers’ category (Rs.7.91) Key words: Buffalo – milk – cost of production.
