The strategy for meeting this goal involved producing a superior progeny by breeding local non-descript cattle with semen from home-born exotic bulls of high genetic merit and then back-crossing the crossbreds with high genetic merit semen of Indian dairy cattle breeds. The superior progeny of cattle and buffaloes represented the modern ‘Charkha’ providing gainful self-employment and remunerative livelihood for millions of families in their own environs.

Climate Change Adaptation has been the core mandate of BAIF ever since climate change started impacting the lives of various communities adversely. The resulting damage to the already depleting natural resources, fragile ecosystem and fast disappearing flora and fauna took its toll on the livelihood of Rural India. After assessing the vulnerability of rural communities for whom farming has been the only means of survival, BAIF adopted a climate-sensitive approach with focus on conservation of natural resources and restoration of livelihood, food security, stability and happiness of the rural families.
BAIF partnered with Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) – a Programme of the Consultative Group for International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) for implementing various Climate Change Adaptation, Climate-Smart Agriculture and Climate Research initiatives.
