with the Animal Husbandry Department ensures that these services reach the community effectively,
improving both animal health and farmers’ economic resilience.”
The awareness camps focused on educating villagers about common livestock diseases and preventive
care, highlighting the economic benefits of adopting scientific livestock rearing practices, and
