He urged departments to ensure veterinary support, livestock healthcare and extension services reach rural producers efficiently, particularly those in remote areas who depend heavily on dairy farming for income and livelihood security.

The article highlighted concerns that bureaucratic systems can slow implementation and reduce the effectiveness of livestock development programmes. Officials were advised to spend more time interacting directly with farmers, understanding on-ground challenges and ensuring schemes are implemented in ways that create measurable improvements in productivity and rural welfare.
