Diploma in Livestock Extension at DUVASU Mathura Offline Course

DUVASU takes pride in having started the need-based diploma courses in Livestock Extension in the state. These diploma programs were started with the financial support under "Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojna" in the College of Veterinary Science & Animal Husbandry in 2013 under the self-finance scheme and since then, these programs are going on successfully. Realizing the importance of livestock resources, veterinary education has been strengthened over the years, however, in view of the limited availability of qualified veterinary graduates, it is not possible for a government to make their services available in each and every village. Further veterinary doctors too require well-trained support staff to cater to the technical services more efficiently. Livestock Extension workers are essential for efficient veterinary services which include healthcare and management of livestock including artificial insemination services at the village level. They also assist in public health services and control of zoonoses, endemics, and epidemics under the guidance of expert veterinary professionals.
