dc.description.abstractClean milk production practices and their determinants were explored in the present study. Sixty dairy farmers from five milk co-operative societies formed the sample. Knowledge, attitude and adoption regarding clean milk production practices apart from training need were studied. Most of the respondents had an ambivalent attitude towards clean milk production. Knowledge of clean milk production practices related to the milch animal was low for a majority of respondents. The knowledge of practices related to the milker was medium whereas it was either medium or low in the case of knowledge related to milking utensils. But, as regards the practices related to cattle shed and surroundings majority were highly knowledgeable. The highest training need was for practices related to the milch animal. Majority of the respondents were medium level adopters of practices related to the milch animal and milking. As for practices related to the milker, majority were low level adopters. As regards adoption of practices related to milking, a large majority were either medium or low adopters. It further revealed that most of the respondents were high level adopters of practices related to cattle shed and surroundings. The respondents’ knowledge of clean milk production practices generally was medium even as the level of adoption was high. The knowledge in all five domains of practices related to clean milk production practices was highly significantly correlated with the level of adoption corresponding to each of the five domains. Attitude towards clean milk production practices was also significantly correlated with the level of adoption. This indicated that attitude and knowledge pertaining to clean milk production practices have significant roles in enhancing the adoption rate of the same. That apart, the study revealed that family education status and seminars/trainings/workshops attended on dairy farming were significantly correlated with level of adoption of clean milk production practices.en_US
