On this occasion, Dr Rakesh Kumar Sharma HoD talked about the role of balanced nutrition in animal reproduction along with care of pregnant animals while Dr Khushpreet Singh of the same department highlighted tips for getting maximum results following artificial insemination. He also discussed common reproductive problems of dairy animals. Technical literature published by the university, mineral mixture bags, Uromin licks etc. were distributed to the beneficiary farmers free of cost as START-UP kits.
