Even today people find it easier to raise dairy animal. Dairy animal husbandry has been beneficial in terms of income, which is why people are giving more emphasis to dairy farming. At the same time, some animal breeders complain that they do not get any special benefit even by doing dairy farming. If you want to start dairy farming, then know the important things before buying animal, only then you will get the desired profit from this business.
Keep these things in mind before buying animals.
Before starting a dairy, people make a good budget and directly buy and raise animals. Many times after buying animals, cattle owners have to suffer losses because new people do not know the important things related to animal. Animal buyers will be able to benefit only when they follow three important things.
Check the health
Most cattle owners buy only high-breed animals, such as cows or buffaloes. Before buying good-breed animal, check whether the animal is sick or infected. To check this, feed the animal; if it is ruminating normally, it is healthy. Apart from this, if water is flowing from its eyes or nose or saliva is flowing from its mouth, then also do not buy the animal.
Check the temperament
When buying cows and buffaloes, it is very important to check their temperament. Some animals kick while milking, so milk them yourself and check them before buying. Apart from this, most cows and buffaloes are monogamous. This means that they give milk only when milked by one person, so it is also important to milk them yourself before buying. Pamper them, if they do not behave normally then do not buy them.
Do not buy animals calving for the first time.
Most cattle owners want to buy cows or buffalo pregnant for the first time so that they can raise them for a long time, which is wrong. The milk-giving capacity and temperament of a cow or buffalo cannot be judged at the time of milking when it calves for the first time. So try to buy animals of second or third calving. Animals of second or third calving give milk to their full capacity.
Also, keep these things in mind.
After buying animals, taking regular care of them is very important. Do not keep the animals hungry and fix a time to feed them three times a day. Animals should never be fed anything. Always give fresh fodder or hay to the animal. There should not be any kind of foul smell in it, otherwise the animals may fall ill. Some people feed the animal with the leftover food from the night before. Sometimes giving stale food also spoils the health of the animal.
