摘要

This paper describes the uptake of five dairy production technologies artificial insemination, deworming, vaccination, concentrate feeding and mineral mixture feeding - in the Nagpur district of India's Vidarbha region. The survey was carried out in 21 villages and data were collected from 210 dairy farmers. The major reasons for the non-adoption or discontinuation of these technologies were: non-availability of service; lack of knowledge among farmers; and withdrawal of free/subsidized services by government. The implications for dairy development are discussed.
