They form a symbiotic relationship with the cyanobacterium Anabaena azollae, which fixes atmospheric nitrogen, giving the plant access to this essential nutrient. Azolla has been used successfully as a protein supplement to replace meal in diets for livestock. According to Ambade et al., (2010), milk yield was increased by 15 to 20% after feeding azolla in the diet of dairy cows.

This study was conducted in the Karauli district of Rajasthan to assess the training needs of farmwomen engaged in dairy farming. It was found that the out of the five major farm operations studied, the farm women needed training the most in housing. The minor operations preferred the most for knowledge need were proper design of cattle shed, selection of breeds, compounding balanced feed using locally available ingredients, vaccination and banking and insurance.

Crossbred dairy cattle milk production and milk fat depends mainly on feeding management with adequate availability of nutrients in their feed materials. It comprises the major protein supply for milk production. The demand of milk is increasing for nutrition of population in country. Presently, Azolla green fodder feeding is being considered essential for lactating dairy animals.

Animal Nutrition constitutes 60-65% of total cost in dairy enterprise. The objective to reduce the feeding costs needs emphasis on knowledge and utilization of latest feed technologies which can reduce the productivity gap. Extension plays an important role in diffusion of any such technology and local para-veterinary professionals are one of the key agents for this. Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University (GADVASU) Ludhiana offers two year diploma course in Veterinary pharmacy at Veterinary Polytechnic College, Kaljharani, Bathinda (Punjab).

The physiological responses, dry matter and water intake of Sahiwal and Karan Fries (Holstein-Friesian X Tharparkar) heifers were monitored under two feeding regimes i.e. feeding regime-1 (NRC, 2001) and feeding regime-2 (15 % higher energy than NRC 2001, by supplementation of molasses). Six each of healthy heifers of Sahiwal and Karan Fries (18-24 month) were selected from ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute (ICAR-NDRI), Karnal. Before start of actual experiment, the animals were given 15 days adaptation period on both the feeding regime.

The dairy farming in our country is entirely different from other developed countries. The reason is that small and marginal farmers feeding of dairy animals produce the bulk of production in our country. In terms of buffer use in nutrition, it has been defined as a salt of a weak acid which neutralizes acids that occur in feeds or acids produced during digestion and metabolism of nutrients. The experiment was carried out on 16 healthy crossbred cows nearly similar age and in late stage lactation to study the effect of feeding buffer on milk yield and fat per cent of raw milk.
