The study was conducted to assess the alternative solution of constraints perceived by farmers in adoption of scientific dairy farming practice (SDFP). It is evident from the study, that poor conception rate and repeat breeding, preference to grow cereal crops rather than fodder crops, non-availability of vaccine and medicine in veterinary hospital and lack of knowledge in making value added dairy products were the major constraints in adopting SDFP by majority of farmers. Considering the prevailing constraints in the study area, appropriate strategy should be formulated by KVK with the assistance of line department or with other agencies for upgrading the knowledge of farmers as well as adoption of SDFP.
