important suggestions for dairy farming

Protect all the dairy animals from direct cold winds during the winter months. Crack/sore/chapped/injured teat (s) should be treated with teat dips (Glycerin: Povidine/Betadine 1:5). It should be used after every milking. New born calves need special care during winter months. They are susceptible to Pneumonia and large number of them dies due to this disease. Keep them warm by providing clean and dry bedding. Deworming should be done in calves regularly. Get your animals examined after 3 months of artificial insemination for pregnancy diagnosis. Do not feed green, sprouted, soiled or rotten potatoes to dairy animals. These can cause serious and fatal poisoning
