To explore use of homoeopathy in treating domestic animals such as cow, dogs and poultry Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT) has partnered with Central Council for Research (ccr).
The collaboration will roll out three pilot projects – Newcastle disease in poultry, infertility in cattle, and potential anti-cancer effects in dogs. It aims to develop innovative veterinary treatment practices and deliver practical benefits to livestock farmers. The initiative, led by the university’s College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, aims to support farmers with cost-effective and farmer-friendly treatment methods. The OUAT’s department of veterinary pharmacology and toxicology will evaluate the effectiveness of homoeopathic treatments as a safe and affordable alternative to conventional ways. The second project addresses infertility issues in cattle, a major concern in dairy farming.
