Abstract

Dairy sector had a crucial role as it supplement the family income, back up household nutritional security and generate employment in the country Indian for million’s. To improve the productivity of dairy animals is one of the major challenges faced by dairy farmers which were mainly influenced by productive and reproductive traits. Considering the above facts there is a vast scope for increased productivity through improved transition period management. The transition period of a cow is generally defined as 3 weeks before calving to 3 weeks after calving. During this period, dairy cows are highly susceptible to metabolic and infectious disease; therefore, prior identification of disease may be especially useful at this time. Thus keeping these points in view the above study was conducted for the assessment of incidence and various dairy farm management practices followed by the farmers. An expost facto study was conducted in Mathura district of Uttar Pradesh. First hand information was collected from 100 dairy farmers. The study stated that the incidence of prolapse was highest in the buffalo (7.41%). The results of metabolic disorder incidence reveal that the occurrence of milk fever was 2.21, 3.65 and 1.23 in indigenous, crossbreed and buffalo respectively. It can be concluded that the result shows that the incidence of RFM was highest in crossbreed animal followed by buffalo and indigenous animals. It was further seen that the occurrence of mastitis is highest in crossbreed animals. Thus it can be concluded that measures should be adopted for better management of transition period among farmers. Specialized trainings and tailored programmes can be arranged at grassroots level to enhance the knowledge of the farmers regarding improved practices.
