Nice photologue Ashish bhai, this place is unbelievable. You photos are picked up nicely. Place is very well organised, neat and clean. Even the goats seem to be arranged as per colour

Can you please advice whether anyone can visit and the procedure / contacts?

Hi! Aashish
those cows are HF crosses not Jersey. jersey will be brown.

One can go to any Agricultural university farm to see many of these. of course both dairy and agri may not be at one place. But that demo farms do exist in KVK's ( Krishi Vignan Kendra) there will be one KVK in every district.

any one interested in seeing most modern dairy farm , visit Chitale dairy farm
::Welcome to Chitale Dairy::



MX6 you are right it is merino breed of sheep. famous for wool production. Raymonds mentions Merino percentage in its woolen suiting. Actually it is wool percentage . Merino is breed name

I am not aware about what is difference between hf crosses and jersy.
Guide told me that those are jersey.

I also heard that chitaley dairy near sangali is most modern dairy but wait for one more year and 12mati will have most modern and largest dairy in India.

I have 40 more pics to post tomorrow.

For other details, wait for tomorrow.

HF is Holstein Frisian. Best Milk breed in the world. originated in Holland

Jersey is form Jersey Island in english channel

Just search Google for Jersey cow images. You will immediately know the difference.
Similarly HF will be either white and black or white and brown patches.

Jersey is more tolerant of tropical temperatures like India than HF

Btw, in 12mati area, dairy is side business of almost every farmer.

Anyway, Amul is now bringing in Gouda cheese (Hollands cheese). I loved the cheese and milk in Holland. Incidentally, cheese is called Kaas in dutch.

This place is just 10km away from my home and i visited that place first time.:

The farm is already famous for decades as model farm.
Tourism development started just 3 years back.
The place is visited by foreign tourist to get the view of Indian rural life.

HF crosses are found every where in almost all villages where there is a dairy co-op. kolar has huge population of the same

How much did they charge you per head ( just out of curiosity) is food included or extra?
