Abstract


In European countries where agricultural practices are conducted on scientific lines, dairy farming has been of late becoming more and more popular. Together with stock breeding, it has in many instances replaced cereal growing. Essex, which was originally a county of arable farming worked by English farmers, has given place largely to dairy farming and stock rearing in- troduced by Scotch farmers who settled down there not long ago. The reason evidently is that dairy farming is much more profitable than arable farming when it is run on business lines. But if we turn our attention to India, things appear to be very different. There is hardly a dairy farm worth the name at the present mo- ment. It has not caught the fancy of the ryot.
