Focus on the balanced nutrition of animals in extreme summer

Animal Husbandry: It is essential to focus on the balanced nutrition of animals in extreme summer.

• Many times the green fodder is not available in the required amount and of which the farmers are forced to use dry fodder. Dry fodder has very little digestible matter in it.
• To realize full production potential of the animal compounded feeds with at least 16 percent digestible crude protein must be offered to the dairy animal.
• Multicut fodders must be sown at this time. Guinea grass and Napier grass are good at this time.
