A new facility in Gujarat will start producing 25,000 cattle embryos each year, aiming to raise milk output across the state.
A specialised centre in Gujarat has been set up to generate 25,000 cattle embryos every year. The initiative is part of the state’s effort to enhance dairy productivity by improving the genetic quality of its herd.
The embryo production target of 25,000 units is expected to supply high‑performance stock to dairy farms, potentially increasing milk yields per animal. By focusing on advanced reproductive technologies, the centre aims to accelerate the adoption of superior cattle breeds.
Gujarat, already a leading milk‑producing state, hopes the programme will reinforce its position in the national dairy sector and contribute to higher farmer incomes. The project aligns with broader agricultural modernization plans promoted by the state government.
