Features: In China, households raising dairy cows account for over 2/3 of the total dairy cow population, making them a crucial component of the country's dairy industry. The development of household dairy farming has brought economic vitality to urban suburbs and rural areas, increased the income of dairy farmers, and promoted the growth of China's dairy sector. The idea that "one dairy cow can enrich a family" has become widely recognized. In the future, as rural industrial structures adjust and internal adjustments within the livestock sector continue and deepen, the proportion of household dairy farming in China's dairy industry will likely increase further. To meet the demand for basic knowledge and practical techniques in dairy farming among dairy farmers, help them solve problems in dairy production, and improve the economic benefits of dairy farming, we have compiled the book "Guide to Household Dairy Farming." This book focuses on introducing the current status and existing issues in household dairy farming, dairy cow breed improvement, reproduction techniques, nutritional needs and feed processing technology, feeding and management of dairy cows at different stages, dairy cow health care and disease prevention, the production of high-quality raw milk, and the construction and planning of household dairy farms.
