The seminar included discussions on sustainable dairying practices and methods for integrating cow dung into bio-gas production. The proposal aims to convert 50% of cow dung and urine into bio-gas within five years, creating sustainable livelihoods for farmers. The dried manure will be used for organic farming. The forum also called for eco-friendly dairy techniques and humane animal handling practices.

The recommendations from the seminar will be sent to relevant authorities for implementation, with further studies suggested to optimize the use of cow dung in dairying.
