In temperate and arid zones, animal

husbandry plays an important role in therecycling of nutrients, while it is lessemphasised in the humid tropics. Thecaring, training, and nurturing of

animals is considered an art in manyfarming communities.



Some key functions of Animal

Husbandry are:-

Farm animals can have many functions

on a farm, but not all farms are suitable

for keeping animals.

Organic animal husbandry puts a central

focus on the welfare and health of the

animals.



In order to obtain a sustainable farming

system, it is crucial to select the right

kind and number of farm animals.

Sheds and beddings must be developed in

a way to ensure the welfare and health of

the animals.

Cattle Farming

Cattle is mainly classified intotwo types :-

• Dairy Animals

• Draught or Draft Animals



Dairy Animals

Traditionally dairy farming had been in thehands of small farmers and landlessagricultural laborers in the villages. The moreaffluent farmers kept cattle for their ownneeds. Milk and ghee were not adulterated.With the increase in population and fasturbanization the demand for milk and milk

products has gone up and the traditional dairyfarming has been revolutionized into moderndairy farming.



In India Buffaloes are the major sources of milk

because buffaloes have a long productive lifeof 20 years and are most productive animalsand even buffalo’s milk is rich in proteins,fats, tocopherol, calcium, phosphorus and

contains less cholesterol, sodium andpotassium.



Cattle Diseases

Animals are susceptible to various diseasescaused by virus, bacteria, fungi and parasites.

Healthy state of an animal is a must to obtainfood and work from them. Besides the animalmeat or milk may get contaminated by thediseases causing organisms.



Some [Local/Desi] breeds of cows with resistance to dieses are

Gir Sahiwal

Red Sindhi

The exotic {Foreign} breeds of cows that have been used for cross-breeding are

Jersey {USA}

Brown Swiss {Switzerland}

Holstein-Friesian {Holland}



Symptoms of diseased animals:-

The animal stops eating and becomes lethargic,

looks tired and remains isolated. The animal shrives with high body temperature. The animal shows excessive formation of saliva

which sometimes hangs from the mouth. Blisters appear on skin surface, eyes turn red,

and the animals may have a running nose. The animal passes loose dung and coloured

urine. The lips and ears of the animal droop. Milk-yield, egg-laying capacity or working

capacity of animal is reduced.



We can prevent the animals from diseasesby:-

• Providing proper shelters.

• Ensuring animal hygiene and proper disposalof dead animals and animal wastes.

• Periodic screening of animals for diseases andimmediate isolation of diseased animals.

• Providing proper diet and suitable medicinesunder the advice of a veterinary doctor.

• Hygienic handling of all animal products.

• Compulsory Vaccinations. Back



Draught or draft

animals:- In the early years of farming the farmers used

bullock with he-buffalo or oxen to farm. But

according to the recent senses many of thefarmers use the machinery instead of draftanimals because it is an easy task and has noneed to be feeded. But very very few farmers

use the old tradition of using bullock.Back



Poultry Farming:-

Poultry is derived from the word poultwhich means chicken, the young one of the common domestic fowl includes the

birds like hen, ducks, turkey andpigeons. The practice of raising hen,ducks, geese, turkey and pigeons for

eggs and meat is called poultry farming.



• India is 5th largest country in the worldin poultry production after China, formerUSSR, USA and Japan.

• The egg-laying poultry bird is called hen[Egg layer], while the one groomed forobtaining meat is called chicken or

broiler.



Poultry products are a rich source of

animal proteins and provide our body

the right kind of fat for maintaining

sound health. Poultry birds offer

certain advantages than the livestock.

They have a short life span and aremuch more prolific breeders than the

livestock.



Advantages of poultry farming

are: Investment involved is small.

Area required is small. Maintenance is easy.

Returns are quick.



Indigenous breeds of hen are:-

Assel

Ghagus

Basara

Chittagong

Brahmal Coachin



Foreign breeds used in India

are:- White Leghorn

Rhode Island Red

Black Minorcha

Plymouth

Light Sussex



Diseases for Poultry Birds:-

The poultry birds suffer from a number of

diseases caused by bacteria, Virus,

Fungi, Parasites and nutritionaldeficiencies. These diseases can be

controlled by prevention measures like

proper cleaning, Sanitation, spraying of

disinfectants at regular intervals, properfeed and timely vaccination of the newly

born chicks. Back



At last we conclude that cattlefarming is the major scheme foran country to develop its foodproduction and could be far

from an Famine.
