Online published on 4 September, 2020. Abstract Systematic search for the prevalence data on the gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) of buffaloes in India for the period 2011 to 2018 from free databases was carried out and 23 eligible studies obtained thereby were recruited for the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of GIP in buffaloes of India was found to be 46.67% (95% CI=37.67 - 55.82%). Meta-analysis showed that there is statistically high heterogeneity for the prevalence estimates reported in recruited studies. The present study reported that there is a high prevalence of GIP in Indian buffaloes which might be responsible for the low productivity in buffaloes in India over the years and needs to be controlled by adopting scientific, management and therapeutic practices supported by consistent surveillance.
