In the present study, practices adopted and constraints perceived in scientific dairy farming by KVK trained dairy farmers were compared with non-trained dairy farmers. Hundred trained and hundred non-trained dairy farmers were selected by random sampling technique from the villages of Amritsar district of Punjab. The data were collected through personal interview with the help of a structured interview schedule. The trained farmers were found to have better adoption than non-trained farmers. The respondents faced more constraints in breeding, feeding and health care. Some of the major constraints mentioned by the respondents were poor conception rate, lack of knowledge of common contagious diseases, their causes and control measures and non availability of mineral mixture in the study area. The present investigation concluded that the training programme on scientific dairy farming had a positive impact on adoption of technologies by dairy farmers despite many constraints
