Animal Husbandry with various domesticated species of livestock is an important sector of the rural economy of India for the past hundreds of years. Its role in augmenting income and employment, specially of the weaker sections of the society and in improving the nutritional status of our population needs to be promoted untiringly. With these objectives in view the book was first published in 1964 and since then it has gone through seven revised editions.
A spectacular reputation of the 7th edition entrusted further responsibility to enhance the quality of this 8th edition. Most of the chapters have undergone significant revisions, rewritings, reorganizations and discussions with updated informations and thereby enriched the latest edition. Three new Chapters viz., An introduction to Microbiology, Rabbit and Yak have been incorporated. Inclusion of Glossary, new photographs, diagrammes, necessary tables, along with important biochemical formula will positively attract the interested readers. The revised edition is a real comprehensive integrated text to provide educational concepts and self study guide for students, researchers, teachers, livestock extension specialists and administrators interested in the study of Animal Husbandry.
The in-depth scientific documentation on the rearing aspects of all the important species of farm animals in one single volume is the main highlight of the book.ISBN-9788120412606
