Major Research Accomplishments
- Designed and developed information package consisting of multimedia (using Macro media Director and Flash softwares) , e-book and video film on clean milk production and tested at field leve
- Carried out Information needs assessment of farmers for clean milk production
- Studied prevalent practices in clean milk production and delineated constraints in adoption of recommended practices in the states of Haryana, Rajasthan, West Bengal and Kerala
- Participatory Extension Model on Integrated System for Knowledge Management Deploying Interactive Multimedia was developed
- Identified problems and priorities in feeding dairy animals and fodder production and delineated technical options by participatory process
- Developed a PTD model for low-external-input sustainable feeding of dairy animals
- Linear reciprocal linkages, the strength of linkages and subject matter area of links in Dairy knowledge information system were analyzed using a linkage matrix.
- The protocol of estrus synchronization developed at NDRI was tested at field level through farmer participatory field trials and a success rate of 68.1% was recorded
- The new extension approach of FLS was validated as a tool for transfer of reproductive management technologies and 44% gain in knowledge was obtained
