The Kerala Livestock Development Board (KLDB) is set to launch the Centre for Advancement in Livestock Productivity and Research (CALPR) at Mattupetty near Munnar in Idukki. The centre aims to foster advanced research and genetic progress in the State's livestock sector, with a focus on genomic selection, embryo transfer technologies, in-vitro fertilisation, and modern reproductive techniques suitable for Kerala's climate and agro-ecological conditions.
Minister for Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development Bindu Krishna will inaugurate the centre on November 9, alongside the launch of a new Herd Management Software and the Statewide rollout of Ovum Pick-Up–In Vitro Fertilisation/Embryo Transfer technology.
