Abstract/Description: | One humped or dromedary camel (Came/us dromedaries) is an important livestock species uniquely adapted to hot and arid environments. Camels in India are primarily reared for carting/draft, agricultural operation, transportation in addition to the secondary utility of milk and hair production. It is important livestock specie contributing significantly in rural economy and livelihood of desert dwellers in western Rajasthan. It still plays a very distinctive role in various agricultural operations and rural transportation in dry land farming. The Southern region of the Rajasthan has large camel herders' population. These herders not only move in different parts of this region for grazing but also visit adjoining area of Gujarat every year in search of better fodder resources. The present study highlights the socio-economic and marketing pattern among camel herds of Raika camel herders in southern Rajasthan. |
