The present investigation on studies on supplementation of green Azolla (Azolla pinnata) on growth performance of Osmanabadi goat kids was conducted under Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, Post Graduate Institute, Dr. P.D.K.V., Akola for period of 60 day. Twenty goat kids between (3 to 6) month of age were divided into four groups on the basis of nearness to age and body weight as T1 (Intensive feeding +Conc), T2 (Intensive feeding +Conc.+100 g green Azolla), T3 (Intensive feeding +Conc. +200 g green Azolla) and T4 (Intensive feeding +Conc+300 g green Azolla), respectively. In intensive feeding dry, green and concentrate was provided as per thumb rule (ICAR, 1985) to all groups. The average daily dry matter intake per kid per day was higher in treatment T4 (0.64kg) followed by T3 (0.62kg), T2 (0.58) and T1 (0.57), respectively. The average daily gain in body weight of experimental kids was more in T4 (0.098kg) followed by T3 (0.087kg), T2 (0.069kg) and less in T1 (0.068kg). The average total gain in body measurement (chest girth, body length and body height) of kids which received green Azolla treatments showed significant effect with concentrate mixture. The total cost per day per kid for T1, T2, T3 and T4, were found to be Rs.6.98, 11.21, 15.11 and 19.01, respectively, but cost of feeding per kg body weight was found.Rs.105.62, 106.46, 87.07 and 77.30, respectively. From the result it may be concluded that supplementation of green Azolla (Azolla pinnata) and concentrate in the diet is beneficial to increase body weight gain and health of the experimental goat kids.Keywords

The present investigation on correlation studies on socio-economic status and adoption of recommended practices adopted by goat owners under MAVIM in Akola district district, Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, Dr. PDKV, Akola during the year 2016-2017. The data of 125 goat keepers belonging to SHG’s under MAVIM were collected by personally interviewing with the help of pretested structure. The information about selected characteristics of goat keeper’s viz., age, education, family size, family type, flock size, occupation and annual income, sources of information, infrastructural facilities, and sources of motivation, knowledge and adoption was summarized for drawing the conclusion. Finally revealed that majority of the goat keepers were young (49.60%) and middle age (48%) groups. Over one third of those were high schooled, notably cent per cent goat keepers belonged to medium size family that too majority lives in joint family (52%). Majority of the goat keepers had medium flock size (2 to 4 goats) however, goat keeping as major occupation with annual income between Rs. 27,000 to 54,000/-. The important constraints reported by goat owners were non-availability of pure breeding buck, lack of knowledge about breeding practices, housing requirement, non-availability of grazing area. To overcome the constraints it is proposed to train the goat owners of SHG to develop pasture land at Gram Panchayat level for economic feeding of goats and providing loan facilities to goat owners for purchasing foods and fodders, construction of sheds.Keywords

The present investigation on management practices adopted by goat owners of self-help group under MAVIM in Akola district was carried out in Akola district, Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, Dr. PDKV, Akola during the year 2016-2017. The data of 125 goat keepers belonging to SHG’s under MAVIM were collected by personally interviewing with the help of pretested structure. Finally revealed that majority of the goat keepers had knowledge about feeding of leaves of bushes (100%), extensive method of rearing (35.20%) and type of housing (40.80%), goat insurances (64%) and duration of feeding of colostrums (84.80%). The goat keepers in majority were found to be aware and adopting the practices of buck for natural service (100%), kaccha or packka type of housing (40.80%), extensive method of rearing (35.20%).The important constraints reported by goat owners were non-availability of pure breeding buck, lack of knowledge about breeding practices, housing requirement, non-availability of grazing area. To overcome the constraints it is proposed to train the goat owners of SHG to develop pasture land at Gram Panchayat level for economic feeding of goats and providing loan facilities to goat owners for purchasing foods and fodders, construction of sheds.Keywords

The present investigation on effect of various fertilizer on yield of green azolla (Azolla pinnata) and its feeding value to Osmanabadi goat kids was conducted under Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, Post Graduate Institute, Dr. PDKV, Akola for period of 60 day. 03 treatments were studied namely T1 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit, T2 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit with fresh cow dung (2 kg), T3 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit with SSP (20 g), respectively. The mean yield of azolla on wet basis under various treatments i.e.T 1 , T2 and T3 were 4.28, 5.77 and 5.13 kg/pit, respectively and yield of azolla on dry matter basis 49, 66 and 60 kg/pit, respectively. The DM and CP value 5.56, 5.68, 5.67 per cent and 23.82, 25.60, 24.89 per cent, respectively. The CF and TA value were 13.58, 14.96, 14.33 per cent and 13.77, 14.94, 14.52 per cent, respectively. The EE and NFE were 4.02, 4.16, 4.09 per cent and 44.80, 40.34, 42.17, respectively. The goat kids from T2 groups consumed more DM than that of T3 and T1 goat kids groups. The average daily DM intake was 0.570, 0.620 and 0.580 kg/day/kids in T1, T2 and T3 groups, respectively. The average daily gain in body weight of experimental kids was more in T2 (0.097 kg) followed by T3 (0.087 kg) and T1 (0.082 kg). The average total gain in body weight was more in T2 (5.15 kg), followed by T3 (4.90 kg) and T1 (3.59 kg).Keywords
