- #6How do good animal husbandry practices benefit farmers?Ans : Animal husbandry is the scientific management of animal livestock. It includes various aspects such as feeding, breeding and disease control.
As the population increases and as living standards increase, the demand for milk, eggs and meat is also going up. Also, the growing awareness of the need for proper treatment of livestock has brought in new limitations in livestock farming. Thus, livestock production also needs to be improved. This improvement can be brought about by good animal husbandry practices like providing good food and preventing diseases in the cattles that will benefit farmers to obtain better quality and quantity products.
