Dear All,

Can some one who is already running dairy farms clarrify the land requirement for green fodder?

As per KVK's and other government resources 1acre is required to feed 5cows. However, i believe that we can feed upto 10animals with 1acre of green fodder like Napier. Since the latest types of napier such as co-4 / RBN production is touching nearly 100tons per acre per year, we can easily feed 10animals based on 30-35kg greens per day per animal.

Please clarrify me.

Many thanks,
Satish
 

Hi

If you are cultivating the latest improved variety then yes you can feed more number of cows. You can also give the data to KVKs .
