NDRI trains 600 dairy farmers of Bihar

Six hundred dairy farmers from Bihar have been trained by National Dairy Research Insitute to boost milk production in the state.

"The farmers should realise the concept and importance of scientific dairy farming and must adopt latest technology used in breeding, feeding, healthcare and management of cattle," said Sushil Kumar, director of NDRI.

Bihar has got immense potential of improving milk production, Kumar said while addressing the concluding function of the training programme.

The dairy farmers, including 14 women, from 21 districts of Bihar were being trained since last December at Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) here on scientific dairy farming.

Sharma also asked the trained farmers to share their knowledge among other dairy farmers of different dairy cooperative societies in the districts.
