National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) has developed an android based software that can be used on
phones as well as tablets.
The mobile application, named 'Pashu Poshan', was launched by the Union Agriculture Minister Radha Mohan
Singh.
With the help of this software balanced ration is formulated while optimizing the cost considering animal
profile, i.e. cattle or buffalo, age, milk production, milk fat, and feeding regime etc.
To use this application, the farmer needs to provide complete animal profile, including breed, age, milk production, fat content in milk
apart from food items being currently fed to the animal along with the cost in order to formulate the balanced ration formula.
Use of this application will boost milk output and income of dairy farmers.
