ABSTRACT

Ticks infestation considerably reduces milk yield of dairy animals due to blood sucking and poor feed intake. NDRI has conducted field trials on using polyharbal medication comprising neem and nirgundi leaves in eight villages of three districts in Haryana during 2019-2020. When the medication was used with 203 animals in 47 dairy farms, ticks were effectively controlled. Nirgundi seedlings were distributed to 600 farmers in Haryana for further upscaling the technology usage. Farmers incurred an expenditure of only Rs. 140 to 240/ animal/year as compared to Rs.1440/animals/year using allopathic treatment.
