Title : An assessment of livestock development with respect to its adoption in the field of animal production. Material Type: printed text Authors: Oli, K.P., Editor ; Basnet, N. B., Editor Publisher: Lalitpur : NASA Publication Date: 1992 Pagination: 1-10 p. General note: AN: 3051 Keywords: Animal production; Extension activities; Pastures; animals Class number: NR-4416 Abstract: A historical review of the livestock development activities inNepal for the past six decades have been carried out. The institutional development has undergone many changes within this periodand that major activity at the government level seems to have beenconcentrated on the establishment of infrastructure. The livestockdevelopment process in the earlier stages was very slow because ofshortage of trained manpower, poor organization, mal-distribution and low budgetary provision. The influence of foreign aid from thevery beginning in the development of livestock farms, animal healthservices and dairy development projects was more pronounced inmobilizing the existing resources with better management practicesand incentives to the technicians. Unfortunately, when the foreigninvestment was reduced to a minimum or completely removed thestandard of the livestock farms and the project management was greatly handicapped. The problem with the government operated farms and projects is in eligibility of disbursing the available funds by the concerned HMG authority an.d need for improved management. The other cause of reduced quality of work was associated,in part by donors approaches. There appeared to be conceptual differenc-es between the donor perception of development and that of the recipients in shaping the programme. Currently, there arethree major institutions namely Department of Livestock Services(DLS), National Agricultural Research Centre (NARC) and Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science (IAAS) carrying out animalscience development and research activities within the country.Suggestion is being made that Department of Livestock Services,National Agricultural Research Centre should take into consideringin further planning stages, the following aspects such as: 1. Socioeconomic study of sustainable programme, 2. Study of animalagriculture system, 3. Research and extension linkages, 4. Organizing animal breeding improvement and pasture development programme, 5. Organizing meetings and seminars, 6. Timely monitoring and evaluation of the projects, 7. Consideration of ethnicity and animal agriculture system, and 8. Study of the succession ofanimal demography along with the socio-economic development ofthe farmers. All of the above aspects are fully discussed in thepaper with specific recommendations.

Title : Extension of animal health services through animal health workers in Rapti zone: a case study Material Type: printed text Authors: Singh, S.B., Editor ; Regmi S P, Author ; Poudyal, Ashok K., Author ; Pradhan S L, Author Publisher: Lalitpur : NASA Publication Date: 1992 Pagination: 113-118 p. General note: AN: 3051 Keywords: Animal production; Extension activities; Pastures; animals;Oat (Avena sativa L.) & legumes, Nitrogen fertilizer, Rainfed condition, Green yield. Class number: NR-4416 Abstract: The use of local people as Animal Health Workers (AHW) was conceptualized by the Department of Livestock Services (DLS) a decade ago. The objective was to train local farmers in basic animal health care so as to extend animal health services to the villages. Until 1988/89, more than 550 AHWs were trained in the Rapti Zone alone. In 1989/90 more than 550 additional AHWs were trained. But due to lack of followup activities it was felt that the objective was not fully realized. DLSOs estimates indicated that only 19 percent of trained AHWS operational in 1988/89. In late 1989 and early 1990, a sample survey was under takenby the Rapti Development Project in the five districts of the Rapti Zone to identify the problems experienced by the AHWs.AHWs from 12 1ocalities where the RDP TA team had planned to assist the line agencies in strengtheningfarmer user group were selected for the study. However, to reach the reasonable number of sample size, the neighboring and nearly villages (then called panchayats ) were also taken as the study area. The sample included 19AHWs from Dang, 17 from Pyuthan, 15 from Rolpa, 18 from Rukum and 15 from Salyan. Thirtynine AHWs in the sample were classified as active and 45 inactive. AHWs who were found to be providing health service at the time of Survey were classified as active. Simple pretested questionnaires were used to interview the AHWs. The main problems reported by AHWs were: ( i ) Poor access to veterinary medical supplv, (ii) Insufficient training, (iii) Lack of equipment and (iv) Lack of incentives.The inactive AHWs reported that the lack of medical supplies from DLSO, lack of incentives, family concerns and lack of recognition from the community were the main reasons for their inactiveness. The study suggested that the effectiveness of AHWs could be improved by providing an annual problem oriented refresher training and by developing a system through which AHWs would have access to medical supplies and equipment. Equally important would be to work out a system by which the AHWs could be paid for the services.

Title : Future steps for development of livestock industry of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Upadhaya R. M., Editor Publisher: Lalitpur : NASA Publication Date: 1992 Pagination: 125-129 p. General note: AN: 3051 Keywords: Animal production; Extension activities; Pastures; animals;Oat (Avena sativa L.) & legumes, Nitrogen fertilizer, Rainfed condition, Green yield. Class number: NR-4416 Abstract: Livestock sector has come off age by shading its image as subsidiary to crop agriculture to become a keysource of foreign exchange earner for the country. Corporate and private sector has substantially changed thebackyard livestock and poultry keeping to a more lucrative economic activities in providing milk, meat, an eggs togrowing urban population. Support industries like feed manufacturing and processing industry like tanning industryand carcass utilization industries have come up to be the partners in livestock development. Marketing channelsare getting more efficient in providing services to the producers and consumers. Business to provided inputs including medicines are thriving. HMG's will to help farmers all-over Nepal is indicated by the establishment of livestockservices centres. All said and done, livestock sector still needs massive infusion of resources to give momentumto meet increasing demand for livestock and livestock products. Policies to give incentives for the farmers to better livestock management is needed urgently. This paper goes through qualitative analysis of livestock sector and identifies key issues that need to be addressed. Statistical figures are avoided.

General note: AN: 3051 Keywords: Animal production; Extension activities; Pastures; animals;Oat (Avena sativa L.) & legumes, Nitrogen fertilizer, Rainfed condition, Green yield.

The modelisation exercise gives an appropriate tool to link by mathematical relations the various activities, but that approochrequires from various disciplines a strong collaboration. As the mathematical process is involved, accruacy andsound experimental protocol are unavoidable. In return the modelisation provide a very powerful mean to erplonthe relevance of various technical alternatives, it systematize the cycle of observation, generalization, erperimentation, extension and again observation.
