Impact of Livestock Sector on Pakistan EconomyShakeel Ahmed
The document discusses the impact of the livestock sector on Pakistan's economy. It notes that the livestock sector contributes 10.8% to Pakistan's GDP and employs 35 million people. Pakistan has great potential in the livestock sector due to its natural breeds of buffalo and cattle. The government has implemented innovative approaches to improve the sector, such as artificial insemination programs, establishing feed mills, and providing loans and training to farmers. The document concludes that further development of the livestock sector could significantly benefit Pakistan's economy.
The document discusses nutritional management strategies for livestock during times of scarcity caused by natural calamities. It describes how floods can damage crops, stored feed, and water sources. It recommends using fallen leaves, crop residues, and aquatic plants as alternative feeds during floods. It emphasizes balanced feeding for different classes of livestock based on their nutrient needs. Complete feed blocks and urea treatment of straw are presented as techniques to improve the nutritional value of available feeds.
1. Goats are an important source of livelihood and nutrition for small farmers in India. India has the largest population of goats in the world at 148.88 million.
2. Goat farming is less capital intensive than other livestock and goat meat (chevon) and milk production are major contributions to India's agricultural economy. India ranks first globally in goat milk and second in goat meat production.

“Future & Scope In Animal Husbandry Areas’’Harsh Mishra
This document discusses the scope and future of animal husbandry in India. It notes that animal husbandry provides livelihoods for many rural households and contributes significantly to agricultural GDP. While productivity remains low compared to global averages, the livestock sector is growing and demand for animal products is rising with economic development. Improving genetic potential through crossbreeding and better management practices can boost productivity and alleviate poverty. The future of animal husbandry lies in meeting the growing demand through increased productivity in a sustainable and inclusive manner.
This document provides information on various breeds of goats, their care and management. It discusses housing, feeding, breeding and health management. Some key breeds mentioned include Black Bengal, Sirohi, Jamunapari and Beetal. Housing can be extensive with grazing or intensive with confinement. Nutrition should be balanced to meet energy, protein and fiber needs that vary based on age, health and production stage. Breeding management includes deworming, trimming and vaccinations. Newborn kids require colostrum and weaning begins at 6-8 weeks. Health care focuses on parasite control, vaccination and record keeping.
This document discusses the importance of balanced diets for optimizing animal production. It defines key terms like balanced diet and animal productivity. It explains that animals cannot synthesize minerals and must obtain them through diet, but feed and fodders alone do not provide all required minerals. The document outlines various nutrients needed in animal diets and how balanced rations are necessary to meet nutritional needs as sole feeding of one ingredient is insufficient. Balanced rations can lead to greater returns through improved health, fertility and productivity. The consequences of imbalanced feeding like reduced growth and milk production are also described.
Feeding for quality feedlot handbook for pakistan Dr. Waqas Nawaz
This document provides guidelines for purchasing and feeding cattle to improve meat quality for export markets. It discusses purchasing cattle from local markets in Pakistan, which often have internal parasite infections that decrease weight gain. It recommends deworming newly purchased cattle and feeding them a starter ration to help them learn to eat from feed troughs. The document provides nutrient requirements for different classes of cattle and considerations for feedlot design, including site evaluation and layout planning. The overall aim is to provide Pakistani farmers and feedlot operators information to finish cattle in a feedlot and produce higher quality beef for export markets.
This document discusses three breeds of buffalo found in Pakistan: Nili-Ravi, Kundhi, and Azi-Kheli.
The Nili-Ravi breed is considered the best dairy breed in the world. Originally from the Punjab region, they are now found across Pakistan and known for their excellent milk yield and quality. Kundhi buffalo are found in Sindh and parts of Balochistan, thriving in irrigated areas. They yield an average of 2000kg of milk over 320 days. Azi-Kheli buffalo are from Swat and yield around 1800 litres of milk per lactation. They have varying coat colors from albino to black.
Care and Management of Pregnant Cows and EwesPervaiz Dar
Pregnancy is central to care and management of animals. Healthy Pregnant Animals means a Healthy and Prosperous Farm. Pregnant animals need special care for example they need suitable ration to reduce the possibility of diseases like milk fever and ketosis at the time of calving and also to ensure adequate milk production. There are other aspects which need to be cared about pregnant animals which we discuss in this presentation.
1. There are over 20 goat breeds found in India. The major goat farming regions are the northern temperate region, northern western arid and semi-arid region, and southern region.
2. Important goat breeds include the Jamunapari, known for its size and dual meat and milk purpose. The Beetal is considered superior to the Jamunapari for its prolificacy and adaptability. The Sirohi is native to Rajasthan and reared for both meat and milk.
3. Goat breeds are classified according to their functions which include milch breeds known for milk production like the Jamunapari and Mehsana, meat purpose breeds, and dual purpose breeds suitable for both
Food animals are those considered for human consumption, mainly cattle, buffalo, sheep, goats, pigs and poultry. A small number of species provide the majority of meat despite thousands being theoretically suitable. Meat consumption varies between geographical regions based on availability, religion, and customs. Conventional foods in one area may be unconventional in others, for example Hindus abstain from beef and Muslims avoid pork. Meat is defined as the edible muscle and offal of food animals.
Challenges in intensifying India smallholder dairy production: Health risks a...ILRI

Three projects are described: 1) A study in Assam evaluating knowledge gains from hygiene training, finding improvements but also ongoing risks. 2) A study of peri-urban dairy farms assessing zoonotic disease prevalence and antibiotic residues. 3) A scoping study in Bihar to identify animal health problems limiting production. The conclusion emphasizes the need for a one health approach to improve productivity while reducing human health risks from milk.
'Beef cattle finishing in the feedlot' is a brief document on the basics farmers and investors need to know before they engage in cattle pen fattening exercises. It emphasizes the pitfalls that must be avoided and the best courses of action, particularly under the economic conditions prevailing in Zimbabwe right now. However, i have tried as much to share the why, but when you need the how, you may have to contact me or animal business experts. I hope you will all find the document useful.
Major economic traits of cattle and buffalopratee5
Selection and judging of the breeding stocks are the first and foremost steps to start with any breeding programme. For this, a no. of phenotypic and behavioral traits are taken into consideration. Breeding plans for cattle and buffalo should aim to meet the quantitative and qualitative demands of milk and meat in the country. From a practical standpoint, traits with a measurable or at least readily recognizable economic value are generally to be given the most emphasis.The economic traits are typically those that affect either the income obtained or the costs of production. So, a thorough understanding of economic traits of livestock is of utmost importance.
present status of pakistan feed industry and its problems-pptDr. Waqas Nawaz
Pakistan's livestock sector contributes significantly to the economy and rural incomes, but animal production is low due to feed deficiencies. The major feed resources in Pakistan are crop residues, grazing lands, cultivated fodders, and cereal/legume byproducts. There are over 200 feed mills, but few produce compound feed. The feed industry operates below capacity due to issues like poor storage leading to damaged crops. Challenges facing the industry include a lack of investment, modern technology, and support from the government.
India has the largest livestock population in the world, including cattle, buffalo, sheep, goats, pigs, and poultry. Livestock makes significant economic contributions, providing 25.6% of agricultural GDP and supporting the livelihoods of over two-thirds of rural people. However, livestock productivity is low compared to global averages, with much potential for improvement. Increased demand for animal products presents opportunities for the livestock sector, but challenges remain around feed, health, infrastructure, and market access. Addressing these challenges through policies, technology, and financing could further enhance livestock's role in poverty alleviation and the rural economy.
UMB (Urea Molasses Blocks) are convenient blocks that contain molasses, urea, cereal bran, salt, and sometimes cement or lime. They provide nutrients to animals and can be made and sold as a source of income. The blocks are made through a process of preparing ingredients, mixing, molding, cutting, and drying. Good quality blocks are well mixed with a hard texture that does not easily break. UMB should be fed as a supplement, not the main diet, and only to ruminants with sufficient water provided.

Economic Analysis of Poultry Egg Production in Quetta Districtsanaullah noonari
The poultry sector is one of the most organized and vibrant segments of the agriculture industry of Pakistan. This
sector generates direct and indirect employment and income for about 1.5 million people. Its contribution in agriculture
and livestock is 6.4 percent and 11.5 percent, respectively. Pakistan has been producing 10,000 million table eggs and
1,196 metric tons of chicken meat annually. Thus the egg poultry (layers) farmers in district Quetta, Baluchistan are
incurred total expenditures of Rs.526950.00 per farm, respectively. However, the selected egg poultry farmers paid
equipments of expenditures of Rs.73450.00 per farm, expenditures rearing Rs.151500.00. The labour cost paid by the
selected egg poultry farmers was Rs.100000.00 per farm. As far as marketing expenses are concerned the selected
egg poultry farmers incurred Rs.162000.00 per farm. Thus the selected tomato growers in district Quetta, Baluchistan
incurred a total average cost of production of Rs.526950.00 per farm. It was also observed that the selected egg
poultry farmers in the Quetta, Baluchistan area earned a total physical productivity of per 1000 bird farm (18 dozen
eggs/bird for 900 birds, 900 spent hens weighing 1.5 kg each) and earned a gross income of Rs.1430200.00 per farm.
It was further estimated that the selected egg poultry farmers after incurring all expenditure and sale of produce earned
net income of Rs.71133.00 per farm at a benefit cost ratio of 1:0.81. High profit was observed in poultry egg farming
in Quetta.
Ostrich farming has potential economic benefits for Pakistan but is currently hindered by regulations classifying ostriches as wildlife. The document argues that ostriches should be classified as livestock based on opinions from experts in wildlife conservation and agriculture. Doing so would encourage ostrich farming in Pakistan and help address future meat demand and export opportunities while benefiting related industries. Immediate action is needed to classify ostriches as livestock to develop the ostrich farming industry in Pakistan.
Breeds OF Diversified species of Poultry.pptxHarshiniAlapati
The term “Poultry” refers to all the domesticated species of birds reared for the purpose of eggs, meat and feathers. Species of birds under this category includes chicken, ducks, quails, turkey, guineafowl, geese, pheasants, emu and ostrich. The domesticated chicken is most widely propagated in commercial purpose to meet the demands of eggs and meat. The other species of poultry are less popular.
Duck account for 7% of poultry production, mostly confined to the coastal states of the country.
Japanese quail farming is gaining attention with better feed efficiency, lesser production cost.
Turkey, guinea fowl and gesse farming is confined to state and central govt farms, educational and research institutions.
Emu and ostrich are reared for skins, leather and oil besides ornamental purpose.
I.DUCKS
Ducks are reared for the purpose of eggs (Khaki Campbell), meat (Pekin) and ornamental (crested). Duck eggs are popular in north –eastern states, West Bengal and Kerala; where they are mostly reared in free range system.
Mostly reared under extensive or semi intensive system.
Indigenous ducks are highly disease resistance and can survive by grazing in the rice fields, canals, ponds, marshy lands, irrigation tanks and rivers. Hence they are more popular than Khaki Campbell ducks.
The egg weight will be 65-80g, depending on the breed / variety. They can lay 120- 180 eggs per year for 2 to 3 years.
Ducks lay most of their eggs during the night and early in the day, which suits the nomadic system of rearing;
Ducks consume spilled grains in harvested fields, and insects and snails in wet fields by foraging, and so supplement part of their feed requirement on their own, which greatly saves feed cost making them economical to maintain;
Ducks require less care and attention in management than chickens
The major disease challenging the ducks are duck plague, for which all the ducks are vaccinated periodically, starting from two months of age.
Breeds of ducks are classified based on the size and utility. Skin of most breeds is yellow except Aylesbury and Muscovy which have pinkish white. Egg colour is usually light brown except Indian Runner – white eggs, Rouen – blue as well as white eggs, Cayuga and Black East Indie – initially black later stages blue colour
TURKEY
Turkeys are native of North and Central America. These are kept only for meat. In India turkeys are almost non-existent and constitute less than 1% of total poultry population. Turkeys belong to single breed, however there are different varieties of turkey which differ in size, plumage colour and fleshing properties. There are 7 standard varieties of turkey namely Bronze, White Holland, Bourbon red, Narragansett, Black, Slate, Beltsville small white. The varieties of turkeys used commercially are Broad Breasted Bronze, Broad Breasted Large White and Beltsville Small White. Due to high cost of feed combined with poor feed efficiency, turkeys are often fed with vegetable.
The document discusses the growth of the chicken meat industry in Asia and Pakistan. It notes that Asia accounts for 35% of global chicken meat production, led by China. Pakistan's chicken meat industry has grown significantly since the 1960s and is now the 7th largest globally. Chicken meat is an important source of protein and nutrients for Pakistanis. It provides many health benefits and helps address deficiencies in animal protein consumption. The industry continues to expand annually in Pakistan.
India has a large livestock population that is an important source of rural income. Meat production in India is dominated by goat, sheep, pig, buffalo, and cattle, which account for about 75% of total meat production. Processing meat and poultry products involves calculating carcass yield percentages, classifying different types of meat, and understanding specifications for various animals. Key animals discussed are goat, sheep, pig, buffalo, and cattle. Information provided includes ideal slaughter ages, dressing percentages, and meat color and texture for each type.
This document provides an overview of the livestock and poultry sectors in Pakistan. It notes that livestock contributes 11.4% to Pakistan's GDP and discusses population trends and herd sizes for various livestock.

Livestock and poultry sectors in Pakistan a Report By Allah Dad Khan Mr.Allah Dad Khan
Livestock, including cattle, buffalo, sheep, goats and poultry, make up an important part of Pakistan's economy, contributing 11.4% to GDP. The livestock population in Pakistan has grown significantly between 1955 and 2006. The report outlines the various livestock production systems and notes constraints like inadequate feed, disease epidemics, and lack of infrastructure and investment. The livestock development policy aims to increase productivity and move towards more commercial, market-oriented farming through private sector-led development and enabling public sector support. Similarly, the poultry development policy focuses on facilitating private sector-led intensive production, processing and disease control to supply domestic and international markets.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
