Abstract: Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (GADVASU), established in Ludhiana in 2006, focuses on improving livestock production, health, and disease prevention through teaching, research, and extension programs. A study was conducted in 6 districts of Punjab to assess the constraints faced by beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries in access of livestock technology transfer services of University. The study identified key challenges, including low education levels, limited direct interaction with the University, poor access to technological services, and difficulty comprehending extensive information during short training sessions. To address these, it recommends increasing in-field extension activities like training programs, awareness camps, etc. Expanding outreach by adopting more villages is also crucial for effective knowledge dissemination.
