Paper Details

Women are essential to the success of the diary industry. They provided feed for the animals, milked the cows, separated the various diaryproducts from the milk, cared for the cattle at home, wove, cleaned the shelters, and learned about better practices for raising and caring for livestock and preventing livestock diseases. And therefore, women must get their fair portion of livestock income. Women's contributions to rural livestock production cannot be discounted; hence, there is an immediate need to market their activity and provide training to the women for raising cattle. Women put in an average of 8.3 hours each day to cover all aspects of diary production. The present paper attempts to understand the role of women in diary farming and the constraint which are in the development of diary farming as well.
