Indigenous Technical Knowledge(ITK) are part and parcel for day to day living and livestock rearing in the study area. ITKs were followed for increasing milk production, retention of placenta, livestock breeding, livestock health management and care of new born. The present study was undertaken with the objective of collection and documenting the ITKs of farmers regarding livestock management which is being practiced generation after generation. Here in this paper an effort has been made to collect the ITKs as a part of ICAR sponsored NASF ad-hoc research project entitled “Developing Climate Resilient Adaptive Strategies for Empowerment of Farmers” which has been implemented in University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad from 2019 to 2022. Various indigenous technical knowledge are collected by analyzing the journals and newsletters, deep interaction with the farmers of study area, contacting the local resource persons and documenting oral histories without scientific validation. Indigenous technical knowledge is succor for people to solve most of their problems by using their logic and innovative mind. The shift towards the modern scientific drugs in livestock rearing has decreased the use of ITKs but they are still in use as a first aid to treat various animal diseases. There is need for further documentation and scientific validation of ITKs from the every part of the country
