Annals of Veterinary Science and Dairy Technology (AVSDT) aims to serve as a premier platform for disseminating high-quality, peer-reviewed research that advances the fields of veterinary science and dairy technology. The journal seeks to:

• Provide a forum for research findings that promote the health and well-being of animals, particularly in veterinary medicine, veterinary pathology, and animal husbandry.
• Contribute to the advancement of dairy science, focusing on innovations and technologies that impact dairy production, food safety, and sustainability.
• Support interdisciplinary collaboration among researchers, practitioners, and policymakers involved in animal health, veterinary sciences, and dairy technology.
• Foster the growth of knowledge in both theoretical and applied aspects of animal sciences and dairy production to enhance global agricultural practices, food security, and public health.

Scope of the Journal
