Animal production | Introduction to Husbandry
Animal production can be referred to as the act of selective raising the livestock for health and economical purposes. It is the management and care of animals in which the genetic qualities and behavior of animals are further developed for profit. Animal production is a very important part of agricultural production, mainly due to the effective use of plant production as a source of all types of feed and the major part this industry plays in maintaining the landscape.
This mainly involves submontane and mountain areas where the pastoral breeding of cattle and sheep predominates. The principle aim of animal production is to produce meat, milk and eggs for the domestic market and for effective export.
The type and importance of animal species that are used for livestock production varies between regions and with the categories of livestock owners. The different species play important roles for food production and income generation and have also other important non-food functions.
Efficient livestock production requires good management practices which include appropriate feeding and health care and the selection and development of breeds that are well adapted to the specific production environments.
