CONSERVATION MODELS ADOPTED FOR SHEEP AND GOAT IN INDIA
Journal Title: International Journal of Genetics - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
Domestication process occurred thousand years ago for sheep and goat genetic resources. In India, 42 breeds of sheep and 21 breeds of goat genetic resources is rich, diverse and locally adapted in its breeding tract. It plays very important role in agrarian economy and livelihood security for small, marginal farmers and landless laborers. Many breeds of sheep and goat are under threatened condition so immediate steps must be taken to avoid irreparable loss. Urgent need should be taken and initiate immediate steps for conservation of valuable indigenous sheep and goat and various governmental and non-governmental agencies involved in conservation of indigenous sheep and goat breeds. The main aim is to enlightened available genetic resources, conservation tools, management strategies and ideal conservation models which is adopted in developing countries as a part of conservation of animal biodiversity.
