Listen "India’s Animal Feed Demand"
Episode Synopsis
This episode discusses a report that assesses India's forage
(animal feed) resources and demand, revealing a significant nationwide deficit.
Analysis focuses on green and dry fodder availability from
various sources (cultivated land, forests, pastures, wastelands) across different zones.
The study highlights substantial regional variations in
fodder production and consumption patterns, influenced by factors like livestock types, agricultural practices, and climate.
Data from the 2012 Livestock Census and other sources are
used to project fodder needs and identify areas with surplus or deficit. The authors propose strategies to improve livestock productivity by addressing fodder shortages.
