Study showed that very few farmers were known the scientific method of goat rearing and Azolla feeding before training programme whereas, after training programme they were adopting 78.3% in housing, 70.0 % in breed awareness, 61.5 % in vaccination, 55.0 % in deworming, 69.0% in green fodder production, 50.0% in concentrate feed, 52.0% in Mineral mixture, 47% in flushing and 35.5% in Azolla feeding.
