RADHAKRISHNAN MINISTER FOR ANIMAL HUSBANDRY © Government of Tamil Nadu 2020 "I have reoriented the Agriculture Sector, ushering in a Second Green Revolution with focus on integrated farming and development of the Animal Husbandry and Dairy sector. The State Government’s unprecedented investment in this sector by providing milch cows and sheep and goats to poor families and by organizing farmers’ fairs (Uzhavar peruvizha) in all the 16,564 Revenue Villages has resulted in higher growth in the Agriculture Sector" Speech delivered by SELVI J JAYALALITHAA, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu during the 57th Meeting of the National Development Council at New Delhi on 27.12.2012 "Livestock farming is an important for the livelihood and economy of farmers. The farmer depend on the milk, meat and eggs that are produced by the livestock that they rear for their sustained livelihood. Livestock that help the farmers in the agricultural operations are seen as their best friends. Besides plaguing livestock also provide manure to enrich the farmers fields. The increasing production of livestock products has transformed livestock rearing into an avocation with immense export potential" Address of the Hon'ble Tamil Nadu Chief Minister during the inagurual function of Advanced Intitute for Inegrated Research on Livestock and Animal Sciences and Veterinary College on 09.02.2020 at Thalaivasal, Salem District.

Executive Summary The Department of Agriculture Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) began work in January 2013 on a Scenario analysis for the management of Bovine Johne’s Disease in Queensland (Scenario Analysis, Attachment 1) as part of its normal response to a disease or natural disaster. The Queensland cattle industry asked the Queensland Government for information to help them assess different bovine Johne’s disease (BJD) management options. In June 2013, the early findings of the Scenario Analysis were discussed by Dr Jim Thompson in an industry forum. -

Parés i Casanova, Pere-Miquel Dep. Producció Animal ETSEA, Universitat de Lleida (Catalunya, SPAIN) [email protected] RESUMEN La raza bovina “Albera” es una raza catalana, de efectivos reducidos, localizada en el E de los Pirineos. A pesar de ser bastante numerosos los estudios científicos realizados en la raza, sobretodo en el campo genético, no se disponen de datos sobre su aptitud sarcopoiética. En este breve artículo presentamos los datos comerciales de una canal procedente de un añojo castrado de esta raza, comparándolos con los de otras razas cebadas por el mismo ganadero. La canal “Alberesa” presenta una conformación R y un estado de engrasamiento de 3, y un buen peso canal en caliente, incluso superior al de las razas comparadas. -

Revisiting AFLP Fingerprinting for an Unbiased Assessment of Genetic
Utsunomiya et al. BMC Genetics 2014, 15:47 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2156/15/47 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Revisiting AFLP fingerprinting for an unbiased assessment of genetic structure and differentiation of taurine and zebu cattle Yuri Tani Utsunomiya1†, Lorenzo Bomba2†, Giordana Lucente2, Licia Colli2,3, Riccardo Negrini2, Johannes Arjen Lenstra4, Georg Erhardt5, José Fernando Garcia1,6, Paolo Ajmone-Marsan2,3* and European Cattle Genetic Diversity Consortium Abstract Background: Descendants from the extinct aurochs (Bos primigenius), taurine (Bos taurus) and zebu cattle (Bos indicus) were domesticated 10,000 years ago in Southwestern and Southern Asia, respectively, and colonized the world undergoing complex events of admixture and selection. Molecular data, in particular genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers, can complement historic and archaeological records to elucidate these past events. However, SNP ascertainment in cattle has been optimized for taurine breeds, imposing limitations to the study of diversity in zebu cattle. As amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers are discovered and genotyped as the samples are assayed, this type of marker is free of ascertainment bias. In order to obtain unbiased assessments of genetic differentiation and structure in taurine and zebu cattle, we analyzed a dataset of 135 AFLP markers in 1,593 samples from 13 zebu and 58 taurine breeds, representing nine continental areas. Results: We found a geographical pattern of expected heterozygosity in European taurine breeds decreasing with the distance from the domestication centre, arguing against a large-scale introgression from European or African aurochs. Zebu cattle were found to be at least as diverse as taurine cattle. -

Meta-Analysis of Mitochondrial DNA Reveals Several Population
Table S1. Haplogroup distributions represented in Figure 1. N: number of sequences; J: banteng, Bali cattle (Bos javanicus ); G: yak (Bos grunniens ). Other haplogroup codes are as defined previously [1,2], but T combines T, T1’2’3’ and T5 [2] while the T1 count does not include T1a1c1 haplotypes. T1 corresponds to T1a defined by [2] (16050T, 16133C), but 16050C–16133C sequences in populations with a high T1 and a low T frequency were scored as T1 with a 16050C back mutation. Frequencies of I are only given if I1 and I2 have not been differentiated. Average haplogroup percentages were based on balanced representations of breeds.

Unit 6 Animal Husbandry
UNIT 6 ANIMAL HUSBANDRY Structure Introduction Objectives DairyingIDairy Farming Animal By-Products Cattle Breeding Development of Dairy Industry In India Poultry Development Sheep Development Piggery Development Fishery Development Cattle Insurance Summary Answers to SAQs - 6.1 INTRODUCTION The origin of livestock wealth is as old as the evolution of human society. !n fact, this living wealth and the human society are interdependent. There is no denyir g the fact the livestock wealth apart from being the main source of National health is a tc 3k of economic prosperity specially in a country like India, where about 82 percent of the p: ~pulationis ruralite and the economy is agro-based. The present status of animal husbas ndry and dairy enterprise has emerged out of age old development activities. In this unit, not only the dairying activity, but all the allied activities like pot~ltry development, piggery development, sheep development, fisheries developm :nt, dairy industry and cattle insurance have been taken. Objectives After studying this unit, you should be able to explain present system of dairy farming in India, list various dairy products, discuss development of dairy industry in different five year plans., describe the present status of poultry, sheep, piggery, catile,and fisher J farming, discuss the role of insurance in dairying, and discuss problems and prospects of dairy industry. 6.2 DAIRYINGIDAIRY FARMING This section deals with the history of cattle and buffaloes, their classification aczo ding to the purpose of keeping cattle, milk production and its utilisation, animal by-produc ts, cattle breeding and dairy industry. The Pre-historic Draft Concept Indian cattle cannot be studied without delving deep into over 5000 years of history snd understanding the cattle needs of the country of those days.
