Indian agriculture is more than 10000 years old. History of Indian animal husbandry is older than the history of cropping. Indian literature is a rich repository of knowledge relating to all aspects of animal husbandry.

This book by eminent Indian scholars attempts to document and analyse copious amount of knowledge relating to all aspects of animal husbandry.
