Challenges Faced
Not availability of the persons in harvesting season and due to lack of time people those who trained are not giving enough time to care for their livestock. Very often they go out in search of other job. They are not, still, aware about the importance of better livestock management for the source of income.
How the challenges were overcome
The continuous efforts of the animators and the constant meetings with the people helped our staff in getting cooperation from few persons. The Adhikar team motivated them through training programme and community meeting for better Livestock Management.
Present Status or Changed Situation
As a result few people started practicing the better livestock management and the above mentioned person is an example. He is earning more income than before from his livestock because he is getting more milk. So he is taking utmost care of his livestock by feeding, taking them to veterinary hospital etc. By seeing the result other people in the target villages started getting interested. Good rapport is developed between the people and the staff.
