The introduction of very simple and "easy to do" "Surf Field Mastitis Test" by our scientists will help an early diagnosis of the disease by the farmers themselves for adopting the curative measures. University Veterinary Hospital and Animal Reproduction clinics are engaged in the treatment of animals and are dealing with gynaecological conditions. Our clinical scientists have initiated outreach programmes with ambulatory clinics to some villages. Research on medicinal plants by our pharmacologists has revealed a large number of indigenous herbs with remarkable antibiotic, antidiabetic , hepatoprotective and antiulcer activities.
