Dairy farming constitutes a large and considerable livelihood for most households in rural India. It usually includes rearing of milch cattle like cows, buffaloes, goats and sheep. To make this better and extend a helping hand to this large community, Fullerton India Gramshakti along with several cattle feed manufacturers, government and non-government veterinary health organizations and their doctors, milk processors organize Cattle Care camps to share knowledge and inputs on cattle rearing, dairy farming, cattle care and upkeep, artificial insemination, milk marketing and more. This encourages households involved in dairy farming to adopt and cope with modern and innovative methods of cattle care that would lead to producing more milk comprising of higher fat content, increase the lactation period of the animal as well as ensure it is in the best of health through the lactation period.
