dc.description.abstract | Livestock is the integral part of agricultural systems all over the world. However, in India, climate change has become a serious concern for ensuring nutritional security for the growing population. Small ruminants, especially pastoral farming, serve a major livelihood option and are embedded deep in the culture of resource-poor small and marginal farmers of arid and semiarid western India. The breeds of these arid and semiarid region are well adapted to the local climatic condition and have amalgamated themselves to very harsh climatic factors in the region. The local native animals of this region have their own adaptive mechanism of altering physiological, neuroendocrine, biochemical, cellular, and molecular process to encounter the stress; still, they need to endure stressful conditions due to high temperature, low feed, and water scarcity. All these constraints expose the sheep production into heat stress, nutritional stress, water stress, walking stress, and their combinations. All the stress factors affecting sheep production directly and indirectly and ultimately lead to compromised performance, lower efficiency, and increased mortality and affect the immune system. Giving the poor farmer’s economic security, under changing climatic scenario, sheep production has to be sustainable by combating the detrimental effect of different mitigation strategies. In the present chapter, the mitigation strategies have been discussed which include genetic improvement, breeding management, grazing management, nutritional management, utilization of unconventional feed resources, antioxidant supplementation, water management, shelter management, and disease management. Basically, all these strategies are based on a physical modification of the environment, genetic modification, and improved nutritional management. To get optimum production under changing climatic scenario, holistic approach is needed as per the environmental conditions and available resources. | en_US |
