Farmer’s feedback:
The farmers were
benefitted with this
technology as it gave better
income by decreasing kid
mortality and increased
body weight gain especially
the weaning weight as
more milk yield from post
partum does thus the ARD,
Keonjhar also promotes
this low cost feed Body weight gain in kids during weaning

Farmer’s feedback:
The farmers were satisfied with
this technology of usage of
KMnO4 as teat dips post
milking as this practice was
capable of decreasing the
incidence of Mastitis by 65%
which was a main cause of low
milk yield and economic loss to
farmers.

Farmer’s feedback:
The farmers are
encouraged to take up
this avenue of
diversified poultry
farming in form of
quail due to less cost,
space, disease
incidence and feed
consumption and most
importantly early
sexual maturity as
compared to poultry
