Indo-Israeli Centre of Excellence for Animal Husbandary & Dairying, Hisar, will be built by Haryana State in collaboration with MASHAV. The centre will operate in the field of research and training for cost-effective and innovative localised animal husbandry in India and dairy technologies for the intensive dairy production system of global standards to enhance per capita availability of milk.[1] It is located within the Government Livestock Farm at Hisar in Haryana state of India.[1]
History
[edit]It will be established with a cost of INR 15 crore (150 million),[2][1] based on a Memorandum of understanding signed between State Government of Haryana with MASHAV in April 2015.[3][4]
Objectives
[edit]Haryana aims to be the leading state of the country in milk production. Israel, a leading country in terms of its dairy management techniques, can be a good model for the State to follow. Israel and India produce 36 liter and 6.868 liter milk per milch animal respectively. Israeli technical assistance can help Haryana become a leading state in terms of milk production.[2]
