2.5 Contingent strategies for Livestock, Poultry & Fisheries

2.5.1 Livestock

Suggested contingency measures Before the event During the event After the event Drought Recovery from

damage wherever possible

Feed and fodder availability

• Awareness towards feed and fodder conservation

• Store sufficient quantity of feed and fodder at farmers level

• Motivate farmers to convert green maize fodder into silage

• Grow fodder sorghum Var.Phule Amruta,Phule Ruchira

• Plantation of multi-cut Hybrid Napier Var.Phule Jaywant /Marvel Phule Govardhan

• Plantation of Anjan grass and Stylo himata on uncultivable slopy lands

• Conservation wheat straw, Pulses straw, (Green gram, black gram), Gram Husk, )

• Plantation of fodder bushes

• Adequate feeding of animals with available feed resources, which are stored before the event such as Uromol blocks, silage, tree leaves ,crop residue etc.

• To avoid malnutrition Prepare “Uromol blocks.” (4 kg Urea + 12 kg molasses +10 lit. water heat it and mix with 16 kg wheat bran and use for feeding animal).along with crop residue.

• Treat dry fodder like wheat straw, Pulses straw, Tur, bhusa, Jawarkadbi with 2% Urea, 5% Jaggary, 1% mineral mixture, 1% salt ,then feed the animal

• Use Non-conventional feed resources like agro industrial by products such as banana peel, mango peel, citrus pumac, beer industry waste etc.

• Hydroponic maize fodder production. • mineral mixture up to 100-150 gm for large

animals to overcome problem of Malnutrition • Use locally available cheap feed ingredients

especially Groundnut haulms as protein supplement • Use of non conventional fodder source like rain

tree pods, thorn less cactus, glyricidia, pimpal, subabhul etc.

• Encourage farmers to grow multi cut fodder crops like berseem, Sorghum.

• Avoid feeding of succulent green grass, otherwise may lead to Pasture bloat and Magnesium Tetany
