From Hisar district, two blocks Adampur and Hisar-I were selected randomly. From selected blocks, two villages, namely, Siswal from Adampur and Dabra from Hisar-1 were selected by random technique. From each selected village, 50 women were selected randomly, thus making a total sample of 100 women. From selected villages, 20 women who were interested in training on dairy farming were selected purposively. Majority of the respondents belonged to middle age group, illiterate, married and joint family of medium family size. Eighty-four per cent respondents had no social participation and had small herd size. Most of the respondents (25%) had medium land holding and lived in pacca houses.
