1.	write a short note on animal husbandry in mari nagar
Answer» The animal husbandry i.e.. livestock rearing includes cattle breeding, goats, fowl rearing, etc. Livestock production provides stable income, food security, fuel and nutrition for the family, in rural areas. In India, more than 70 million small and marginal farmers have got alternate livelihood options from animal husbandry.If the distribution of livestock rearing is taken into consideration, the poultry accounts for the largest share. The other animals which include camels, asses, horses, etc., are also found remunerative. In India, we have about 28.7 crores of cattle including 9 crores of buffaloes.The performance of Indian diary sector has been remarkable in the past few decades. This is mainly because of implementation of’Operation Flood. It is a system whereby all the farmers can pool their milk produced according to different gradings and the same is processed and marketed to urban centres. In this, the farmers are assured of fair price and minimum income from the supply of milk to urban areas.The animal husbandry is undertaken to develop organic farming by developing green manure and the animal waste is being used to produce gobar gas in rural areas. Meat, eggs, wool and other byproducts are also emerging as important productive sectors in animal husbandry.\xa0
