The aim of study was to investigate the effects of environmental factors on the lactation milk yield (LMY), lactation length (LL) and calving interval (CI) of the Anatolian buffalo. For this propose 2034 Anatolian buffalos’ pedigrees in Istanbul between 2012 to 2017 were used. The overall mean and standard error of the LMY, LL and CI were determined as 1223.9 ± 6.83 kg, 230.99 ± 0.89 kg and 417.51 ± 1.73 days respectively. The effects of the province, calving year, lactation number, season and calving age on these characteristics were determined. Also effects of the province, calving year, lactation number, season and calving age on LMY, effect of province, calving year and season on LL and calving year, lactation number and calving age on CI were statistically significant (p<0.01), Phenotypic correlation were calculated between LMY, LL and CI also.}, number={1}, publisher={Zootekni Federasyonu (ZF)}
