Animal husbandry is the fastest-growing Agri-business not only in India but across the globe. After farming, animal husbandry is considered as the second most important source of income for farmers. Through cattle, goat and sheep rearing, farmers can easily earn better income or double their earning capacity. Keeping this in mind, the central government along with state government has been initiating different schemes to give more power to the farmers. Recently, the central government has decided to give subsidy on sheep, goat and pig farming. In fact, with the aim of improving the standard of sheep, goat and pig rearing, the ‘Rural Backyard Sheep, Goat and Piggery Scheme’ has been started in the state of Uttar Pradesh which will run under the supervision of Animal Husbandry Department.
