Starting a Profitable Dairy Farm in North Bengal
A practical starter guide to setting up a small dairy operation — breeds, feed, costs and common mistakes.
Dairy farming can be a steady income source in North Bengal, where demand for fresh milk keeps growing. Here is how to start smart.
Start with the right breed
Crossbred cows often balance milk yield with hardiness for local conditions. Start small — two to three animals — and scale as you learn.
Feed is where farms succeed or fail
Feed is usually the biggest running cost and the biggest lever on milk yield. Balanced, lab-tested dairy feed pays for itself in output.
Plan your costs
- Shed and basic infrastructure
- Animals
- Daily feed and fodder
- Vet care and vaccination
