Maqola haqida umumiy ma'lumotlar
Background: Dairy cattle is a major part of agriculture in Baghlan province. Farmers breed dairy cows as per classic methods without any science-based intervention which results in inefficient and ineffective dairy productions. The present study aiming to investigate the present status, progress, and the future of such classic husbandry practices. Materials and Methods: This study undertaken at Baghlan province, 54 villages of two animal-enriched districts including Baghlan-e-Markazi and Pol-e-Khumri. The research method was qualitative in which, relevant questionnaire was designed and distributed to randomly to 390 farmers with tolerance of 5% error. Data were recorded on percent of females participating in dairy cows nurture, the experience of farmers with dairy cows nurture, breeding method of dairy cows in the targeted area, type and percent of artificial inseminations, breeding of local cows, speed of breeding process, access of farmers to milk production resources and factors that in turn motivate or threaten the dairy cows nurture. SPSS (version 26) software was used for descriptive analysis of the gathered data. Findings: Results showed that the engagement of women in dairy cattle breeding is very low. In case of artificial insemination, sperm of Holstein and Brown Swiss generations is used for breeding local cows, and the access of dairy cattle breeders to the factors of production is relatively good compared to a few years ago. Based on the results of the study, it is recommended that for breeding of native cows, the sperms of Holstein Freeze and Brown Swiss strains are highly invaluable as results in good, adapted and effective breeds in Baghlan province.
