Course Details

Dairy farming is a class of agriculture for long-term production of milk, which is processed for eventual sale of a dairy product. Dairy farming consists of raising mother animals and collecting the milk that they produce after giving birth. Though cows are the most commonly farmed animal within the dairy industry, there are other animals that are also raised for their milk. 

As we all know India is the largest milk producer and the second-largest milk products producer in the world. And therefore, there are plenty of opportunities in dairy farming careers in the country. Dairy Farm is completely related to Milk Production and Animal Management. Dairy Courses are mainly related to all areas of dairy farming in India. The main subject, when we talk about dairy is Dairy Technology, which plays a key role in the growth of the dairy industry. Dairy farming comes under animal husbandry, where the cows and buffaloes raised for milk.

Dairy farming management includes breeding and care of milch cows and high-yielding cattle, procuring milk, and processing of milk into a variety of dairy products. The production process needs engineers for the maintenance of processing plants and dairy technologists for working on the processing of milk products. Breeding and care of cattle are mainly taken by Veterinary Scientists. Dairy technologists work for procuring milk from rural-based small dairy farmers or as supervisors in large dairies, monitoring the procurement and collection process.
