The dairy sector in India is a substantial part of agriculture. The advent of precision dairy farming technology has contributed to better farm management, health monitoring of milching units, improved productivity and ease in managing operations with reduced wastage. In India particularly, the prime focus is upon the strengthening of the milk cooperatives based supply chain by adjoining small holding farmers to the state milk federations. But the awareness, promotion and adoption of in-farm technologies such as milking machines, RFID cow collars, silage makers, ICTs, etc. are at the low pace. The reason is major portion of unorganised sector with low herd size. As per the research indications, it has been found that encouraging the development of organised dairy farms can help to cater future rise in demand of milk products both domestically and internationally. With the help of systems approach, this work is an attempt to showcase a holistic scenario of technology adoption in the dairy farms of India to help the decision makers and policy planners to make efforts in the desired directions.
