Maharashtra Government launched Vidarbha Development Programme Package (VDPP) in year 2004 to increase milk production in Vidarbha region. The study was conducted in Nagpur district, where 101 cross bred dairy cows were distributed among 86 farmers, scattered in 39 villages of 12 Tahsils. The study highlighted the correlation of profile and adoption of improved dairy cattle management practices by beneficiaries under VDPP. The attributes namely education and socioeconomic status were found highly significant. Whereas land size, total annual income, dairy herd size, daily milk production, daily milk sale, milk production from purchased dairy cattle social participation, utilization of communication sources, knowledge level, attitude towards dairy farming, economic motivation and training on dairy farming were significantly correlated with adoption of improved dairy cattle management practices. Independent variables like age, family size, family member participation in dairy farming, number of purchased dairy cattle and experience in dairy farming were non-significantly related with adoption level of improved dairy cattle management practices.
