Presently, Azolla green fodder feeding is being considered essential for lactating dairy animals. Azolla is nothing but floating fern in shallow water, which is very rich in protein, essential amino acids, and vitamins. Azolla can be easily digested by the dairy animal because of its high protein and low lignin content, green Azolla can be used as feed supplement for the milch animals (500-1000gm per day) which could increase the milk production by 7-13%. The front line demonstration of Azolla cultivation in the programm area could bring changes in feeding management of dairy cattle.en_US
