Efficient management of a dairy farm is the key to success
Cattle feeding cost a total of 70% of the milk production
Cattle are fed with fodder, grains, brans, green fodder, straw, oil cakes and other such cattle feed.
The feed for a normal adult animal is 15-20 Kg of green fodder and 6 Kg of dry fodder per day.
During the last trimester of pregnancy, the animals must not be taken far away for grazing and uneven paths for grazing must be avoided
Poor animal health is one of the principal constraints to increasing small-scale dairy productivity, as it results in high morbidity and low production.
