Abstract
Dairy Melas have emerged as significant platforms for disseminating dairy farming technologies, improving market linkages, and enhancing farmers’ knowledge. The present study assesses the effectiveness of the Dairy Mela conducted by the National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI), Karnal, Haryana, from February 26 to March 1, 2025. A total of 250 dairy farmers were surveyed to analyze socio-economic characteristics and their perception of the mela on their knowledge and farming practices. The study highlights key areas of success and suggests improvements for making future Dairy Melas more effective.
