The effect of magnetic field dependent (MFD) viscosity on the onset of ferroconvection in a ferrofluid saturated horizontal porous layer is investigated theoretically. The bounding surfaces of the porous medium are considered to be either rigid-ferromagnetic or stress free with constant heat flux co
