Livestock provide many important benefits including meat, dairy products, clothing, fertilizer, draft power, land management, conservation, fuel, recreation, and culture. However, livestock farming in Nepal faces limitations such as being labor intensive, cultural and religious barriers, requiring large land areas, high initial costs, competing with human food needs, disease outbreaks, and lack of proper markets and veterinary services. These problems can be addressed by establishing separate livestock departments, research centers, poultry farms, veterinary hospitals, milk plants, foreign assistance for livestock, increasing hatcheries, and providing more facilities for farmers.
