"Sof Contest: Animal husbandry."
Animal husbandry includes the activities involved in the care, breeding, and growth of domesticated animals. Animal husbandry is an essential part of modern agriculture. I thank @solaymann bhai for organizing a contest with such a title.
Animal husbandry is practiced in every household in the village of Bangladesh. In our country, animal husbandry is done at marginal level as well as in big farms. A big part of our country is playing a great role in making it economically self-sufficient in the same way that animal meat meets the demand of non-vegetables. Many breeds of cattle are reared in our country. Among them some notable animals are mentioned.
Livestock: Livestock rearing is done on a large and marginal scale in our country out of which cows are reared the most. Cows are kept mainly for two reasons one is to produce milk and to meet the demand for meat.
Goat is another domesticated animal of Bangladesh. It is reared in two ways large scale farming and small scale rearing at home. Along with goats, various breeds of animals including sheep, buffaloes, proltii are reared.
The people of Bangladesh have different options for animal husbandry, among which all kinds of animals are reared in our country. At the individual level, whoever is skilled and finds it convenient to keep animals, keeps those animals.
According to me, cow is the most reared in Bangladesh. Cow farming is less labor intensive and more profitable and has several variants. Like rearing of cattle for meat, rearing of dairy animals, rearing of animals for breeding. All three stages mentioned above have become quite profitable. Also this animal husbandry is part of integrated agriculture so cow dung is used as good organic fertilizer for agriculture.
Why cow rearing is good:
It is easy to grow and can be grown in a small space. Cow rearing can be economically profitable easily. Cash can be converted into cash by selling cows at any time due to economic needs. Also the money from the sale of milk can meet the necessary needs. These animals have less disease risk than other animals.
We raise animals to change our economic situation. If we don't know its right direction or if we don't adopt sustainable method then we can face loss so I am mentioning the method that I adopt to be profitable.
Selection of suitable habitat: For animal rearing, suitable habitat for animals should be ensured. Ensuring that animals are kept in a place where there is adequate dry light
Selection of improved breeds: Selection of the right breed for animal husbandry and purchase of healthy strong animals with disease resistance will reduce the cost of animal treatment.
Feed management: Animal feed must be managed first for animal husbandry. Cattle should have green grass it is good feed for cattle along with balanced feed should be given with grain feed it promotes faster growth of animal along with increase in milk production.
Giving improved seeds to cows for breeding will produce good calves and will be profitable in a short period of time.
Ensuring regular cleaning of animal houses and other health management for taking disease prevention measures. For example, providing deworming every 3 months, giving scurvy vaccine and other health care.
For good growth of the animal, it is necessary to create suitable habitat and ensure adequate light and air circulation. The housing of the animal (in case of cow) should be sloped in such a way that the excrement of the animal flows backwards. Animal housing should be in a place that has temperature control in case of overheating. Planned animal housing is beneficial for animal husbandry. Good housing reduces animal diseases and paves the way for higher profits.
I invite @zisha-hafiz @azwar82 @robin42 to participate in this animal husbandry competition.
Good luck to you.
I wish you well
