Fundamentals of Livestock and Poultry Management is a structured and accessible resource that provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles and practices of managing livestock and poultry systems in the Indian context. Designed primarily for undergraduate students in veterinary and agricultural sciences, this book also serves as a practical reference for farmers, livestock extension workers, and professionals involved in animal husbandry. Beginning with the economic significance of livestock, the book guides readers through foundational areas such as animal reproduction, housing, species-specific care, and nutritional strategies. It covers the management of a wide range of domestic animals—calves, heifers, milch animals, sheep, goats, pigs—as well as poultry types like broilers and layers. Special emphasis is placed on incubation, hatching, brooding, and the identification of Indian and exotic breeds. Advanced topics include animal breeding and improvement, digestive physiology, feed classification, and nutrient functions. It also provides practical guidance on vaccination protocols, disease prevention, and the application of feed supplements and additives. With its focus on real-world applications, scientific depth, and localized relevance, this book bridges the gap between academic knowledge and field-level implementation. It empowers readers with the tools and understanding necessary to contribute to sustainable, efficient, and productive livestock and poultry systems.
