“…W hile the majority of beneficiaries (89.38%) of IMDS were found to have a medium level productive and reproductive performance of Murrah buffaloes . The study found that such development initiatives ought to be encouraged in order to raise both the socioeconomic standing of farmers and the level of animal milk production (Jadoun, 2013).…”

The Green Revolution in the late 1960s enabled India to overcome a severe food shortage and achieve food grain self-sufficiency. Recent trends in crop farming witnessed a multifold shift towards paddy and wheat specialization in Haryana. The sustainability of the future agricultural production system in terms of soil, water, climate and market characteristics is threatened by continuous mono cropping of the rice-wheat cropping system. Increased rice-wheat mono cropping trend necessitates diversification on account of ecological concerns. So, farm diversification is an important strategy to maintain sustainability of the Haryana state agriculture. This article briefly discusses the various diversification initiatives performed in Haryana and their effects.

“…Longer dry period causes economic losses to the farmers. A glance of the Jadoun et al, (2015) found that the average dry period of Integrated Murrah Development Schemes (IMDS) beneficiaries was 102.02 days and for beneficiaries it was 111.49 days in Haryana. The longer dry period in the present study could be attributed to the wide variation of breeds and management practices in the different states.…”

“…The milk production is mainly depends on the productive and reproductive performance of cattle and buffaloes reared by the farmers. The previous studies on the productive and reproductive performance of dairy animals were customarily studied in a localized manner and for a specific species for instance, Bohra et al (2007) in Almora district of Uttarakhand; Kumaresan et al, (2009) in the eastern Himalayas; Kumar et al, (2013) in Rajasthan; Jadoun et al, (2015) in Haryana state; Meena et al, (2015) in Faizabad district of Uttar Pradesh; Sachan et al, (2015) in Unnao district of Uttar Pradesh. Therefore, keeping in view the need of the comprehensive study which covers the large area, consideration of dairy development in the state as well as all the major species i.e.…”

The productive and reproductive performances of dairy animals have direct effect to milk production and profitability of dairy enterprise. The present study was carried out to analyse the productive and reproductive performance of cattle and buffaloes reared under farmers’ management in three states of differential dairy progress in India. Haryana, Maharashtra and Odisha states were purposively selected from highly, moderately and least dairy progressive states, respectively. The total sample size was 900 containing 300 dairy farmers from each state. The finding shows that the productive and reproductive performances of buffalos in Haryana are better than Maharashtra and Odisha. The productive and reproductive performances of Crossbred were found better in Haryana as well as Maharashtra than Odisha. In Haryana, very few farmers reared Indigenous cattle but the performances were better than Maharashtra and Odisha. The better performance of Haryana may be due to being home track of elite Murrah buffalo, Tharparker and Sahiwal breeds of Indigenous cattle, agro-climatic situations, veterinary services and managerial skills of dairy farmers. To improve the productive and reproductive performance of dairy animals in the moderately progressive (Maharashtra) and least progressive (Odisha) states efforts should be focused on breed improvement, better veterinary infrastructure and enhance the managerial skills of the farmers

Livestock markets perform major exchange function of animals in India. These markets play a considerable share in the economic gain of farmers and act as a social and cultural migration hub for the domestic and foreign tourists also. But they are largely unorganized and dominated by informal traders. The structural base of livestock markets determines the sales pattern and the major price value of animals is bagged by middlemen. These markets are functioning under the jurisdiction of the state governments and supervision is under the control of the local bodies. The different marketing strategies in the markets and pricing are affected by qualitative and quantitative factors of animals. The major constraints regarding the livestock markets are the lack of facilities and unawareness of knowledge among the sellers and buyers. The role of livestock markets in disease transmission is also a matter of concern. Details regarding animal movement will facilitate epidemiological studies to prevent contagious diseases from outside the country. In the present COVID-19 pandemic, conventional livestock markets are closed and virtual markets based on online platforms such as Facebook, WhatsApp and E-commerce sites are coming up and these transformations are absolutely inevitable.
