The book intends to serve as an instrument for deploying preventive and control measures against parasitic zoonoses affecting livestock and their impoverished caretakers by disseminating knowledge through the training of field veterinarians. The book's primary objective is to equip veterinary professionals with contemporary methodologies for enhancing the productivity of dairy animals, sheep, and goats. It provides guidance on how to improve the health of animals and reduce mortality rates by employing low-cost, practical approaches. The manual also covers more expensive techniques, like supplementary feeding and intensive rearing, which can be utilized for planning, implementing, and monitoring livestock programs. It is anticipated that service providers will educate farmers about the additional costs and labor required for more intensive farming practices.
