Solution

Animal husbandry:

  1. Livestock raising and selective breeding are examples of animal husbandry.
  2. It is the management and care of animals in which the genetic qualities and behavior of animals are further developed for profit.

Benefits of good animal husbandry to farmers:

  1. Enhancement of domesticated animal selective breeding.
  2. Increased output of products like meat, eggs, and milk.
  3. Proper maintenance, such as providing clean shelter, feeding a hygienic and balanced diet, and preventing disease and disease-causing agents, improves maximum yield.
  4. Along with agriculture, Indian farmers practice animal husbandry through animal husbandry practices.
  5. Cattle farming is the most profitable method for farmers in animal husbandry. Aside from milk-related products, cattle breeds are also used in agriculture fields for labor work such as irrigation, tilling, carting, and so on.
  6. Other advantages include increased fuel, fertilizer, clothing, drought power, and transportation.
  7. Good animal husbandry practices also result in increased offspring survival, better growth, better production, better reproduction, and higher profits.
