Agriculture is the art and science of cultivating the soil, growing crops and raising livestock. It includes the preparation of plant and animal products for people to use and their distribution to markets. Agriculture provides most of the world’s food and fabrics. Cotton, wool, and leather are all agricultural products. Agriculture also provides wood for construction and paper products. These products, as well as the agricultural methods used, may vary from one part of the world to another. Start of Agriculture Over centuries, the growth of agriculture contributed to the rise of civilizations. Before agriculture became widespread, people spent most of their lives searching for food—hunting wild animals and gathering wild plants. About 11,500 years ago, people gradually learned how to grow cereal and root crops, and settled down to a life based on farming. By 2,000 years ago, much of the Earth’s population had become dependent on agriculture. Scholars are not sure why this shift to farming took place, but it may have occurred because of climate change. When people began growing crops, they also began herding and breeding wild animals. Adapting wild plants and animals for people to use is called domestication. The first domesticated plant was probably rice or corn. Chinese farmers were cultivating rice as early as 7500 BCE. The first domesticated animals were dogs, which were used for hunting. Sheep and goats were probably domesticated next. People also domesticated cattle ...

Animal Husbandry - Poultry Farming The population has reached its peak, especially in a country like India. The population explosion has led to a greater demand for basic requirements such as food, shelter, clothing, etc. To meet the increasing requirements and demands, we need to apply a greater effort. One such effort to meet food demand is animal husbandry. Animal husbandry includes cattle farming, poultry farming, fisheries, apiculture, etc. Table of Contents • • • • • • What Is Animal Husbandry? Animal husbandry is the science of farming animal livestock. It includes caring, breeding and management of livestock. Animal husbandry is a large-scale business where animals that provide us food are reared, bred, sheltered and cared for in a farm or in regions which are specially built for them. Animal husbandry is the branch of Here, let us know more in detail about Poultry farming and its management. Also Read: What Is Poultry Farming? In poultry farming, rearing and management of fowls are done for two purposes- • Production of the eggs. • Production of meat or flesh. In order to meet the quantity and quality requirements, a variety of strains (breeds) are raised. These improved strains include layers which produce eggs and broilers that provide meat. Leghorn and Aseel breeds Since poultry farming is a profit-making business, its primary focus is on maximum production with less expenditure. For this reason, cross-breeding of local and foreign breeds was started. Cross-b...

Introduction For living, a large number of farmers are dependent on animal husbandry. Animals, particularly bullocks, provide a major source of power for both farmers and dryers in addition to milk, meat, eggs, wool, and hides. About Animal Husbandry Animal husbandry is the management, as well as treatment of farm animals for human earnings, in which genetic characteristics of the animals are also taken into account for better production. Animal husbandry in the modern era is based on production systems that are tailored to the type of land available. In the more developed parts of the world, intensive animal farming is displacing subsistence farming, with beef cattle kept in high-density feedlots and thousands of chickens raised in broiler houses or batteries. Animals are frequently kept in greater numbers on poorer soil, such as in the uplands, and are sometimes allowed to roam freely, foraging for themselves. History & Importance of Animal Husbandry For the availability of food at a time when hunting is ineffective, Domestication was not a single event, but a process that occurred over time and in different locations. In the Middle East, sheep and goats accompanied nomads, whereas cattle and pigs were associated with more permanent settlements. The wild animal which was domesticated at the very first was the dog. Half-wild dogs, possibly beginning with young individuals, may have been tolerated as Dairy Farming Dairy farming is an agricultural practice that involves the...

The notion that “like begets like” was already current in biblical times. Long before the science of animal genetics developed, all species of agricultural animals were subjected to Some of the most significant research in Animals represent renewable agricultural resources because they reproduce, and animal scientists have studied animal reproduction assiduously since the 1930s. These investigations began in the Animal Animal Food sciences and other post-harvest technologies A group of sciences and technologies underlie the processing, storage, distribution, and marketing of agricultural commodities and by-products. Modern post-harvest technology helps provide inexpensive and various food supplies for consumers, meets the demands of a variety of industrial users, and even creates replacements for Research having particular significance to post-harvest technology includes Agricultural engineering includes appropriate areas of The use of mechanized power and machinery on the Agricultural production presents many engineering problems and opportunities. Agricultural operations—soil conservation and preparation; crop cultivation and harvesting; animal production; and commodities transportation, processing, packaging, and storage—are precision operations involving large tonnages, heavy power, and critical factors of time and place. Facilities designed to aid farm operations help farm workers to minimize the time and energy requirements of routine jobs. Four primary branches have...
