Hello,
I want to start diary farm in mangalore.we have 3acres agriculture land.plz suggest what are the basic requirements needs,initial we want to start with 2 cows, how much investment ,which type cows need to buy ,

Hello Sir
The shed may be constructed on dry, raised ground and should be well ventilated.
A standing space of 2 x 1.05m for each animal is required.
Purchase healthy/freshly calved animals in their second/third lactation. If need be,vaccinate the newly purchased animal against disease.
Animals may be purchased in phases. Purchase of animals may be made in such a way that subsequent purchase is made when first two animals purchased are at late stage of lactation.
Feed the animals with best feed and fodders and daily feed requirement is about 2.5 to 3% of body weight of animal.
 

Hi,

It is not advisable to have dairy farm with less than 20 animals as the cost effectiveness is not achieved.


Since, you are very new to this I would suggest you take help of a good consultant.
