Livestock is an important component of mixed farming system in India. According to the 18th Livestock Census (2007), India possesses 529.70 million livestock. Contribution of livestock sector to the total GDP was 3.64 per cent during 2010. This sector plays an important role in stabilizing income and employment level in rural areas of India. Efficient livestock marketing is an important aspect of livestock development as it helps in sustaining livestock rearing through increased income.
