Livestock has played an indispensable role in the Indian economy. Animal husbandry is culturally
and economically integrated into the society. Livestock is a source of protein, livelihood and draught
power. Diverse enterprises like Apiculture, Sericulture, and Pisciculture have been reared
traditionally for many years. Indigenous stock has higher resistant to diseases and can better adapt
to climate change. They act as a buffer to crop failure and sudden monetary losses. Rearing a wide
variety of animals like yaks, camels and Mithun apart from cattle, sheep and goat are unique
characteristics of animal husbandry in India. Technological backwardness, financial constraints, and
inadequate veterinary services are few issues that hinder the progress in the sector .
