FAQs on Animal Husbandry Video Lecture - General Awareness & Knowledge - Bank Exams
| 1. What is animal husbandry? |  |
Ans. Animal husbandry is the branch of agriculture that deals with the care, breeding, and management of livestock. It involves various practices, such as feeding, housing, breeding, and disease prevention, to ensure the well-being and productivity of domesticated animals.
| 2. How important is animal husbandry in agriculture? | |
Ans. Animal husbandry plays a crucial role in agriculture as it provides a sustainable source of food, fiber, and other products derived from animals. It contributes to the economy by generating income for farmers and supporting rural livelihoods. Additionally, it helps in maintaining the ecological balance by recycling nutrients, managing organic waste, and reducing the environmental impact of livestock farming.
| 3. What are the key components of animal husbandry? | |
Ans. The key components of animal husbandry include:
1. Feeding: Providing appropriate and balanced nutrition to animals based on their age, breed, and purpose, ensuring their growth, health, and productivity.
2. Housing: Creating suitable living environments, such as barns, pens, or sheds, that protect animals from extreme weather conditions, predators, and diseases.
3. Breeding: Selecting and mating animals to improve desirable traits, such as high milk production or meat quality, through natural or artificial insemination.
4. Health Management: Implementing preventive measures, vaccinations, regular check-ups, and prompt treatment to maintain animal health and prevent the spread of diseases.
5. Waste Management: Proper disposal and utilization of animal waste to minimize environmental pollution and maximize resource efficiency.
| 4. What are the benefits of animal husbandry for farmers? | |
Ans. Animal husbandry offers several benefits to farmers, including:
1. Income Generation: Livestock farming provides a steady source of income through the sale of milk, meat, eggs, wool, and other animal-derived products.
2. Diversification of Agriculture: Integrating animal husbandry with crop cultivation allows farmers to diversify their agricultural activities, reducing dependence on a single source of income.
3. Manure for Fertilization: Animal waste can be used as organic fertilizer, enriching the soil with essential nutrients and improving crop yields.
4. Soil Conservation: Grazing animals can help control weeds, reduce soil erosion, and improve soil fertility through natural fertilization.
5. Sustainable Farming Practices: Animal husbandry promotes sustainable farming practices by utilizing local resources, reducing the need for synthetic inputs, and fostering a more balanced ecosystem on the farm.
| 5. How does animal husbandry contribute to food security? | |
Ans. Animal husbandry plays a significant role in ensuring food security by:
1. Meat and Protein Production: Livestock farming provides a valuable source of meat, milk, eggs, and other protein-rich foods, meeting the dietary requirements of many people worldwide.
2. Nutrient Recycling: Animals convert low-quality feed and by-products into high-quality protein for human consumption, making use of resources that would otherwise go to waste.
3. Crop-Livestock Integration: Animal manure can be used as fertilizer for crop cultivation, improving soil fertility and enhancing crop yields, consequently increasing overall food production.
4. Income and Employment Opportunities: Animal husbandry generates income and employment opportunities, particularly in rural areas, contributing to poverty reduction and better access to food for local communities.
5. Genetic Improvement: Selective breeding in animal husbandry aims to improve productivity, disease resistance, and overall animal performance, leading to increased food production and better quality products.

hello yes this video on improvement in
food resources part 13 is brought to you
by exam for calm
no more fear from exam now we will
discuss about Fulton farming so before
we get into poultry farming let us first
see if all of us are clear with what is
poultry so I guess people who are
non-vegetarian they must be aware of the
term poultry but for those who are ready
terian let me just tell you what is
so poultry is nothing but a
term used for domesticated birds kept by
humans for collecting their eggs or
killing for their meat so now there are
a set of birds which are domesticated
that means they are they are kept under
care so that you can collect the eggs
laid by them and those are the eggs on
which people feed right and or sometimes
for killing the birds to get their meat
there are people who feed on chicken
meat or not only chicken there are other
birds as well on whose meat people feed
on at the same time they also feed on
eggs laid by birds like the eggs of
ducks
some people feed on duck eggs laid by
ducks some people also feed on the there
were a couple of birds on whose eggs
people feed on for example ducks
hence etc so let us have a look at
poultry farming law so these are some of
the words which are domesticated for
example here you can see the hen the
chicks and the duck what is the purpose
egg production and chicken meat so
humans collect the eggs laid by these
birds and also for the chicken meat so
the chicks are killed to get their meat
so often these chickens which give me
are known as broilers so broilers is the
term which is used for the chickens
giving meat right so now let us look at
the poultry farming breeding so how is
the breeding taken care of crossbreeding
is done to get desired improved
qualities so everywhere the purpose of
crossbreeding is that that we want to
get our desired
which is not existing naturally so let
us look at this example of crossbreeding
where this Indian breed s yield is cross
bred with this foreign breed later on so
this is the foreign breed and this is
the Indian breed so when they are cross
bred the product which is formed will
have some improved qualities what are
those improved qualities I mean what are
those qualities for which we actually
cross wave these number and quality of
chicks so the number of chicks which are
produced add more and also the quality
of the chicks are better so if the
quality of the chicks are better then it
is good because people are actually
feeding on the meat of the chicks dwarf
broiler parent for commercial chick
production so the chicks which are
produced they are smaller in size dwarf
means smaller in size so if the broilers
are small in size it helps in chick
production commercially because those
small broilers are better for commercial
selling some are adaptation capacity
that means they have capability to
sustain in higher temperatures
so we ensure that when these two breeds
actually crossbreed the product which is
obtained they can adapt to high
temperatures low maintenance
requirements low body weight hence
reduced feed costs so the resultant bird
which is formed is smaller in size so if
it is smaller in size it has lesser body
weight so it needs lesser food so we can
reduce some of the feed costs so these
are some of the advantages of
crossbreeding in case of poultry right
okay now let us talk about the broilers
specifically how care should be taken of
the Reuters because broilers are the one
on whose needs the humans will directly
feed on so they should be provided with
vitamin rich food because if you provide
them with becoming rich food they will
stay healthy and they will not have any
diseases so that the humans which who
feed on their meat also do not get any
diseases
they should be given vitamin rich food
ensures better growth so that they grow
properly avoid mortality so broilers
should not die because these broilers if
they die because of some disease or
something then that is a kind of loss
right so people don't want them to die
soda so it should avoid mortality that
is why they should be given good food
they should stay healthy and then they
should be killed and the meat should be
and the meat is eaten by the humans sent
to markets for meat purposes so that is
the purpose of the broilers now let us
look at the poultry farming which deals
with the egg production so broilers are
those on whose meat people feed on now
this egg production is the one the birds
which are kept and taken care of and
then eggs are collected so proper
hygiene to be maintained in housing and
poultry feed so you can see in the
picture how they are put inside a cage
but at the same time cleanliness and
hygiene should be mentioned maintained
inside the cage otherwise the eggs might
get some kind of infection and again
when those eggs are eaten by human
beings they can also give some kind of
diseases right so proper hygiene should
be maintained disease and pest control
measures to be adapted so that these
birds do not get any kind of diseases
because if they get some kind of
diseases the eggs laid by them might
also have some kind of diseases so we
talked about breeding now let us talk
about feeding so what kind of food
should be given to the poultries when we
talk about broilers since they are the
one on whose need people will feed upon
they should be given protein rich food
and with sufficient fat that is why you
would have seen that people who are non
vegetarians and who feed on this chicken
and mutton z' and things like that
Google's you meet some generally they
tend to put on more fat if they consume
excess of meat so that's why if they
want to lose weight people often say
that turn vegetarian do not eat too
fatty foods right so these broilers are
actually given protein rich food food
which are rich in fat what about the
poultry birds that means the birds whose
eggs are eaten so they should be given
food which is rich in vitamin A and K
because when they are give when they are
given vitamin rich food it helps them to
lay eggs right so this this kind of food
should be given to the poultry now as
disease control how do we control
diseases so for disease control almost
the same things for all types of animals
cause of the disease here also
nutritional deficiencies maybe if they
do not eat proper food it can get
diseases because when we do not eat
proper food we don't get the required
nutrients our body tends to become weak
and become more prone to diseases so the
same concept is true even for the
poultries microbes like bacteria virus
or fungi so these kind of microbes can
also cause infection and diseases in
them parasites again who which can
affect their host body and cause
diseases what are the control measures
cleanliness and proper hygiene use of
appropriate disinfectants so as I said
cleanliness and hygiene is something
which should always be taken care of in
case of all kinds of husbandry whether
it is cattle farming or it is poultry
farming or all this fish production or
it is BA keeping so everywhere
cleanliness and hygiene should be
maintained use of appropriate
disinfectants what are these in fact ins
these are the substances which get rid
of infection for example you would have
seen these kind of lotions like de taüll
or sera on what are they they are
nothing but disinfectants often you will
see that for a newborn baby when you
wash their clothes people they really
put some disinfectant so that even if
there are some kind of infection that
will go away with that disinfectant and
again vaccination so again in poultry is
also there are some kind of diseases
which are common and for which vaccines
are already available
so those Madson should be given on time
to the poultry birds so that they are
not they do not suffer with from the
same disease thank you please visit
