Subject 636.2 Ruminants and Camelidae Bovidae Cattle
 
Description Cattle rearing is a major source of livelihood for the marginal farmers of Himachal Pradesh. About 91.5% families in this hilly state are rearing one type of livestock or other (1991 census) thus represents a significant individual financial investment. Hybridization and upgrading of Zebu cattle in combination with conventional rearing system has created some concurrent problems and one of the major problems in cross bred cattle is the obstruction of intestinal tract. Intestinal obstruction is a trivially life threatening abdominal disorder of large ruminants, which require prompt investigation and treatment. The acute abdomen arising out of intestinal obstruction represents a significant workload. Furthermore, patients with intestinal obstruction have a significant morbidity and mortality affecting the economy of the farmers.
