Almost nine months after the notification by the state government and Kamdhenu University still awaits for the 24 research stations from four other agricultural universities. The students, being at the receiving end suffers because of the delays. Currently they have only one livestock research station with the university, located in Himmatnagar.
The university lacks a statute of its own and so follows the Common Statutes for Agricultural Universities of Gujarat. Sources suggests that hardly any research has been taken under observation since it started in 2015-16 and claims to have a livestock of barely 10 to 12 cows. The university genesis states that it aims at conducting researches that are need based and “lab to land” kind in animal sciences. After a meeting of the Vice Chancellors of four agricultural universities and the Kamdhenu University the set up will take another three months. The 24 research stations to be transferred are from Anand Agricultural University (10), Junagadh Agricultural University (8), Navsari Agricultural University (2) and Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural (2).
