The present study revealed that the total cost of Rs. 34.39 was incurred in the production of a bird. The net return per bird was Rs. 0.61 and per batch was Rs.1525. Break even point was identified and it was 2278 birds per batch. The farm was maintaining 2500 birds per batch which was greater than break even quantity. The producer’sprice was Rs.28.85 per bird and Rs.72, 125 per batch. The cost incurred by retailer per bird was Rs. 4.6 and Rs. 11,500 per batch;of which, transport cost was the major component. It could be revealed that the producer share in consumer’s rupee was 64 per cent. The marketing cost and marketing margin altogether occupied 36 per cent in consumer’s rupee. In quail farming, cost of feed, inadequate credit and getting license were the major problem. By overcoming these problems through government support in terms of providing financial, market facilities and extension services, quail farmers can run the business in a profitable way thereby there is a vast potential for reducing protein deficiency and creating employment opportunities for young people.","PeriodicalId":407606,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116733997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Aloe vera contains 1.0-1.5 per cent TS out of which, polysaccharides occupy 55 per cent, sugars 17 per cent, minerals 16 per cent, proteins 7 per cent, lipids 4 per cent and phenolic compounds 1per cent on dry basis. It also contains many vitamins A, C and E. Vitamin B1 (thiamine), niacin, Vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamins B12 (cyanocobalamin), choline and folic acid including the important antioxidant. Health benefits of Aloe vera include wound healing, halts the cancer tumors, prevents kidney stones, lowers high cholesterol, reduces high blood pressure, stabilizes blood sugarand ends constipation. These days researchers are also concentrating to utilize Aloe vera as an ingredient in dairy and food formulations. Aloe vera gel or juice are used to incorporate in different dairy products like flavoured milk, ice cream, Dahi, yoghurt, Lassi and also food products like RTS and edible coatings etc.","PeriodicalId":407606,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129196588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lal Peda is a popular heat desiccated traditional dairy delicacy of eastern India specially Uttar Pradesh. It is prepared by blending of Khoa and sugar followed by heat desiccation until characteristic reddish brown colour appears. The Lal Peda is deficit in fibre so the developed Lal Peda was prepared with addition of oat. This product is manufactured since long time yet not glamorized as other Khoa based sweet products like Burfi , Peda etc. The main reason behind this is, these products centered into specific areas and have not proper focused by research scientists and extension workers. So the experiment was carried out on low calorie, low sugar and fibre enriched Lal Peda . The Lal Peda samples packed in polythene bags coated with nisin as a bio-preservative to check the preservation ability of the developed Lal Peda . The Lal Peda samples were packed in commercial Nasco sampling polyethylene bags using MAP equipment Reepack® and MAP mix 9000 Gas mixer, manufactured by PBI DAN5SENSOR A/S, Ringstead, Denmark. Three different combinations of gases i.e. 75 per cent CO 2 :25 per cent N 2 ,50 per cent CO 2 :50 per cent N 2 and 25 per cent CO 2 :75 per cent N 2 were used to pack the Lal Peda samples. The samples packed under air were kept as control. The samples were stored in a BOD incubator (Remi Elektrotechnik Ltd., New Delhi, India) at 20 and 37 o C and were analyzed for sensory attributes at an interval of 10 days.

The study was undertaken after conducting transfer of technology programmes on different improved goat production practices in above adopted villages of NAIP project. The adoption of vaccination, deworming, ecto-parasiticides, mineral mixture, concentrate and green fodder feeding were 3.57 per cent, 17.14 per cent, 26.42 per cent, 2.14 per cent, 35.0 per cent and 9.28 per cent, respectively. However, after the NAIP project, intervention i.e. organized animal health camp, training and demonstration, the overall farmers adoption trends were higher in respect to vaccination, deworming, ecto-parasiticides, mineral mixture, concentrate and green fodder feeding as 59.28 per cent, 75.0 per cent, 74.28 per cent ,57.85 per cent,74.28 per cent and 59.28 per cent, respectively. The overall improvement in the attitude of the goat rears with respect to adoption of goat husbandry technologies would be possible through the demonstration of efficient technologies needed for healthy goat rearing which has not only created awareness but also improved the attitude of goat rearers.

The main issue of caged system poultry industry is managing the poultry droppings that build up in the manure collection pit beneath the cage. If not managed properly this waste material can create odour and attracts flies. Composted poultry droppings, on the other hand, can be an excellent resource for improving the soil health and fertility. During the storage of poultry droppings in the manure collection pit, huge quantity of nitrogen is lost in the form of ammonia. When composting a low C/N ratio material such as poultry droppings, it may be beneficial to add carbon instead of adding nitrogen which would boost the nitrogen immobilization and reduce volatilization. Adding a dry material with high carbon content in the manure collection pit periodically would reduce the moisture content of poultry droppings and temporarily immobilize the NH 4 + by arresting the microbial activity for a short while. Keeping in view the present study was undertaken by applying dry coir pith into caged pit manure collection system to minimize the ammonia volatilization. Periodical application of coir pith into manure collection pit maintained the in-house ammonia concentration below 25 ppm which was 34 ppm at the beginning. After a period of three months, poultry droppings along with added coir pith were scraped out and allowed for composting and this compost found to be rich in N (2.08 %) with optimum C/N ratio 13.54:1.","PeriodicalId":407606,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123817195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
