ABSTRACT

This current scenario of dairying in India calls for intensive efforts directed towards enhancing the milk production, productivity and the acceptance of recommended dairy farming practices at the household level. Enhancing the knowledge of dairy farmers arid farm-women would be the first step towards attaining a higher-level adoption level of the recommended dairy practices by them. Knowledge is a pre-requisite to the proper utilisation of improved dairy farming practices by the dairy farmers and farm women, and is ultimately linked with the increased economic returns from dairying. Knowledge has been a subject of interest to the researchers and several efforts have been conducted in different parts of the country in the past in this regard. However, these efforts are sporadic in nature. The present article is an effort to compile the studies done so far relating to knowledge of dairy farmers and farm-women and draw certain meaningful conclusions. This effort could be of great utility to the extension managers, policy planners and all those involved in dairy development to devise suitable dairy development activities and also in proper targeting of these activities.
