Mastitis is a complex disease of milk producing animals having huge economic implications world wide. The disease is caused by various pathological agents and has both clinical as well as subclinical manifestations. Economic losses associated with mastitis originate mainly from a decrease in milk yield, discarded milk, veterinary services expenses, cost of veterinary medicines, reduced animal value, labour expenses, deterioration of milk quality and sometimes death of animals. Mastitis leads to significant changes in milk composition and thus, considerable changes in milk fat percentage and solid not fat (SNF) content of milk which renders milk quality deterioration. Management of lactating animals has quite a significant role in prevention of mastitis at a dairy herd. Awareness of dairy farmers can help to regularly monitor and ultimately reduce the number of cases of mastitis resulting in decrease in economic losses due to it, thereby enhancing of overall profitability.Keywords

Rabies is a dreadful disease which affects not only animals but humans also. It is considered to be zoonotic disease because it can be transmitted from animals to humans. This infectious viral disease affects nervous system and causes inflammation in the brain. Once the clinical signs appear in the affected animal or individual, the disease is almost always fatal. There is no specific treatment for rabies and hence prevention is the only way to keep the disease away. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to create awareness about rabies so that maximum population can be prevented from this fatal disease.- Field Evaluation of Productivity of Gobhi Sarson (Brassica napus) under Cluster Frontline Demonstrations in Faridkot District of South-Western Punjab

One hundred fifty three front line demonstrations (FLDs) were conducted on farmers’ fields to demonstrate the effect of improved technologies on the productivity of canola type gobhi sarson var. GSC-7 using cluster approach in district Faridkot of Punjab during Rabi 2016-17 and 2017-18. The productivity of gobhi sarson under demonstration plots ranged between 19.2 to 20.4 q and 19.9 to 20.8 q/ha, respectively, for year 2016-17 and 2017-18, whereas, under farmers’ practice, the productivity varied from 14.1 to 14.2 q and 16.6 to 17.1 q/ha for the respective years. The maximum value of extension gap to the tune of 5.10 q/ha was recorded in cluster IV followed by cluster III and V (4.75 q/ha), cluster II (4.65 q/ha) and the least was in cluster I (4.10 q/ha). The technology gap in the demonstration plots over potential yield was the lowest i.e. 1.80 q/ha in cluster IV, whereas, the highest technology gap was recorded in cluster I (2.70q/ha). The technology index was 8.09 per cent for cluster IV and the highest (12.13%) for cluster I while the mean technology index was 9.48 per cent. The value of net returns per ha under demonstration plots was Rs. 71594 and Rs. 72170, whereas, farmers’ practice gave net returns per ha of Rs. 40626 and Rs. 52626 for the year 2016- 17 and 2017-18, respectively. The benefit: Cost ratio varied between 3.76 to 4.05 for 2016-17 and 3.73 to 4.04 for 2017-18 under demonstration plots while the value of same under farmers’ practice varied between 2.46 to 2.55 and 2.80 to 2.93, respectively, for year 2016-17 and 2017-18.Keywords
