Empowering Dairy Farmers: Sukumar Sharma Leads Educational Session on Genomic Imported Semen Benefits at AIT Meeting in Hasanpur
At a pivotal AIT meeting held in Hasanpur, Begusarai, Mr. Sukumar Sharma, the Business Manager of ABS India, led an insightful session attended by 55 dedicated AITs. This gathering served as a critical platform for educating and empowering farmers on the transformative benefits of using genomic imported semen in dairy farming.
Mr. Sharma highlighted the advanced genetic technologies behind genomic imported semen, which allow for precise selection of superior traits such as higher milk yield, better disease resistance, and improved fertility rates. By adopting these genetic advancements, farmers can significantly enhance the overall productivity and profitability of their dairy operations. The use of genomic semen also ensures the propagation of desirable traits across generations, leading to a stronger and more resilient cattle population in India.
Furthermore, the session addressed the long-term economic benefits of investing in quality genetics. Mr. Sharma emphasized that while the initial cost of genomic imported semen might be higher, the return on investment is substantial, with farmers seeing noticeable improvements in their herd’s performance and health. This, in turn, contributes to a more sustainable and efficient dairy farming model, aligning with the broader goals of modern agriculture in India.
By educating farmers and AITs on these critical aspects, ABS India is playing a key role in driving the adoption of cutting-edge technologies in the dairy sector, ultimately supporting the growth and development of a more productive and prosperous agricultural community.
