for the Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative (PPLPI). The purpose of these papers is to explore issues related to livestock development in the context of poverty alleviation. Livestock is vital to the economies of many developing countries. Animals are a source of food, more specifically protein for human diets, income, employment and possibly foreign exchange. For low income producers, livestock can serve as a store of wealth, provide draught power and organic fertiliser for crop production and a means of transport.

  • Chapter 8 Value Chain
    Chapter 8 Value Chain Chapter 8 Value Chain 8.1 Marketing 8.1.1 Milk (1) Distribution Channels In Pakistan, 34.058 million ton of milk was produced for human consumption in 2007/08.1 Cattle colonies in urban cities provide a plenty of milk to urban consumers, while most of rural producers consume milk by themselves and sell only surplus at the rural areas. Although the production of processed milk has been increasing, 97% of the milk sold is fresh milk. In this section, the present situations regarding distribution channels, prices, mechanisms to determine prices of milk, and the related associations; and the limiting factors and the possible countermeasures for value chain improvement of milk are described as below. (a) Urban cities: In urban cities such as Karachi, Hyderabad and Sukkur, cattle colonies were established and provide large amount of milk to urban areas. Table 8-1-1 depicts the number of lactating animals and the size of production at those colonies.

This study was aimed to measure the water quality of eight different creeks around Port Qasim. Samples were collected and analyzed using standard procedures during February and March, 2009. The parameters including pH, Conductivity, Total Dissolved Solids, Salinity, Dissolved Oxygen, Nitrate, Phosphate, Sulphate, Chloride, Calcium, Potassium, Zinc, Iron, Cobalt, Chromium, Manganese and Cadmium were determined. The result shows that Bakran creek and Gharo-Phitti creeks are heavily polluted compared to other creeks. This study recommends that wastes from the industries or sewerage should be treated before being discharge into the creek system. Key words: Creeks, Port Qasim, nutrients, Gharo-Phitti, Bakran INTRODUCTION Pollution of water bodies is a major concern in the developing nations. According to various workers (Fakayode, 2005; Emongor et al., 2005; Furtado et al., 1998; Ugochukwu, 2004; Altman and Parizek, 1995) anthropogenic activities i.e.

  • Purpose of Dairy Its Maintenance and Product
    1 Article Manual Food Technology By Arjun Shukla B.Sc Biotechnology M.Sc. Zoology (Entomology) Mitali Gupta B.E (Electrical & Electronic Engg.), M.E. Control System Purpose of dairy its Maintenance and Product 2 Introduction: India derives nearly 33% of the gross Domestic population from agriculture and has 66% of economically active population, engaged in agriculture. The share of livestock product is estimated at 21% of total agriculture sector. The fact that dairying could play a more constructive role in promoting rural welfare and reducing poverty is increasly being recognized. Milk production alone involves more than 70 million producers, each raising one or two cows/ buffaloes primarily for milk production. The domesticated water buffalo is one of the gentlest of all farm animals; hence it can be breeded easily. The dairy sector offers a good opportunity to entrepreneurs in India. India is a land of opportunity for those who are looking for new and expanding markets. Growth prospects in the dairy sector are very bright. Dairy development in India has been acknowledged the world over as one of modern India’s most successful development programme. India is the second largest milk producing country with anticipated production of about 78 million tons during 1999- 2000. The production of milk products stood at 3.07 lakh tones in 1999-2000. Production of milk powder including infant milk food has risen to 2.25 lakh tons in 1999- 2000, whereas that of malted food is at 65000 tons. Off late market for milk products is showing a steady increase. Dairy farming has been part of agriculture for thousands of years, but it was usually done on a small scale on mixed farms with little distinction between dairy cattle and beef cattle.
