The Indian sub-continent possesses largest livestock population in the world and the animal rearing is one of the income generating viable business of rural people. They are getting income by way of milk, meat, wool, leather etc. However, the productivity of domesticated animals is poor due to complex factors which are varied.

This book apart from meeting the needs of field veterinarians will also serve as a useful source of information to undergraduate and postgraduate students of veterinary colleges.
