Textbook Of Animal Science By Dr. D. Sreekumar, Dr. P.V. Sreenivasaiah
2014 | 171 Pages | ISBN: 8192970574 | EPUB | 3 MB


Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) has mandated a course on Animal Production for undergraduate (UG) students pursuing towards a degree in Agricultural Sciences (Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry etc.). The course is being offered in all the Agricultural Universities in India. The syllabus embraces a variety of theory and applications in general livestock management. Many publications, both Indian and foreign, are available on Animal Sciences; but, they are either very descriptive on all or some of the topics included in the syllabus. Some of them are expensive and some others do not include all topics envisaged in the ICAR UG syllabus. Therefore, it is in the fitness of things that a concise textbook including the UG course on animal production is prepared to facilitate both the teacher and the taught. With this in the background, this book is prepared for UG students of Agricultural Sciences on the basis of ICAR syllabus. The information on different management practices with respect to cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goats, pigs and poultry and an overview of the livestock industry have been compiled and presented in a very simple and condensed form for the benefit of students and teachers. Further, to help learning and evaluation processes, each chapter contains exercise with both Objective and Subjective questions; answers for the former are given separately. Many other types of questions, in general, and objective questions, in particular can be formed limited only by the imagination of the teachers/evaluators.
