The Nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus), also known as the Indian antelope, is herbivorous mammal native to the Indian subcontinent. Its population has significant growth in recent years, leading to concerns about its impact on the local ecosystem in various regions of India. The population of Nilgai has increased significantly in the Kaushambi district of Uttar Pradesh, raising concerns about its impact on the local flora and fauna. Nilgai were found to be capable of causing extensive damage to most agricultural crops. Damage to wheat (Triticum aestivum), gram (Cicer arietinum) and mustard (Brassica campestris) crops was caused not only by foraging but also through trampling, resting in field and daily movement of the animals.
The effect of Nilgai on flora and fauna in Kaushambi UP is a complex issue. This research paper aims to investigate the impact of Nilgai on the flora and fauna and agricultural crop-raiding with the possible management strategies that can limit or reduce crop damage of Kaushambi a district in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. So it is important to manage Nilgai populations in order to protect the environment and ensure the coexistence of Nilgai with other animals. The study utilizes a combination of field surveys, data analysis, and ecological modelling to understand the Nilgai's role in shaping the local ecosystem and its implications for conservation and management.
