Abstract

The present survey was undertaken to analyze the constraints faced by the urban and peri urban dairy
farmers in around Hyderabad city of Telangana. A sample of 100 farmers (50 farmers each from Urban and
Peri urban areas) was selected through simple random sampling technique. The data was analyzed by
Henry Garret’s ranking technique. Twenty constrains were identified in the study. The study indicated that
high cost of fodder and concentrates was perceived as a major problem (with a score of 76.19) followed
by high cost of dairy animals as the second major constraint (with a score of 76.11) and high incidence of
prolapse of uterus in dairy animals ( with a score of 23.09) was a twentieth constraint.
