ANIMAL RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT

1. Modernization of Additional Block Animal Health Centre

( To be implemented by --- DAH&VS)

The state has an elaborate structure to provide animal health services. There are district-level veterinary hospitals at each district headquarters and State Animal Health Centres located at the sub-divisional headquarters and other important locations. Each block has one Block Animal Health Centre. In addition there are 267 Nos. of Additional Block Health Centres. Total No. of cases treated 98.78 lakh during the year 2008-09 involving all institutes engaged in animal treatment.

Generalized health care services and treatment do not always cater the needs of the high yielding animals, companion animals specially pets and wild animals. Increased costs of production and higher value of animals necessitate the utmost expertise in planning a animal health programme. This has necessitated modernization all Animal Health Centres. The Government has modernized 333 nos. Block Animal Health Centres in the last year and now decided to modernize Additional Block Animal Health Centres during current year under RKVY (2009-10)

Location

Additional Block Animal Health Centres are situated at important places of each Block in all districts of West Bengal

Impact of the Project

4. Distribution of Chicks / Ducklings involving women SHGs

( To be implemented by --- DAH&VS)

Poultry farming is a potential tool to add income as well as nutrition to the poor sector and as such is one of the major parameters for rural economic development. It is the only source of egg and one of the major sources of meat as it contributes approximately 1/3 rd of the total meat produced .In west Bengal as estimated that maximum eggs are produced under Back Yard system of rearing as layer farming with commercial strain did not flourish to a great extent due to the unavailability of major feed ingredients; investment and competitiveness with the mega poultry producers of the State. The Backyard farming of poultry in West Bengal has become so popular in the rural poor due to very least investment in terms of infrastructure in the backyard set up and its nature basically a NO INPUT FARMING and this is one of the tools of earning money of the socially underprivileged women in our society. In West Bengal approximately 48.7% house hold is having the poultry.

Without economic empowerment, the importance of women in all respect like decision making etc could not be recognized in this society. It is one of the subsistence systems in providing supplementary income through backyard farming. It is taken care of by the family, especially the women folk. Management of poultry has been associated with woman since historical ages. It is the main resource, which women farmers have more access to benefit accrued.

Although indigenous fowl is the major contributor to the total egg production in this state and having the highest duck population in India, but the production performance of the DESI fowl (population approx.55% of total poultry)/Duck is far from the production of the duel purpose RIR fowl / improved variety like KHAKI CAMPBELL DUCK, which has developed the adaptability in the agro-climatic situation in West Bengal and has very much popular in the rural Bengal.

Due to a series of outbreak of HPAI, the infected zone needs to be replenished with improved varieties of birds after successful Post Operative Surveillance programme.

The State is far behind from the ICMR and WHO recommendations in terms of consumption. At present, the per capita availability with our own production is 35s while few million of eggs are being brought to this State regularly mainly from Andhra Pradesh and Tamilnadu. Hence the major concern should be towards increase in egg production.

To boost up the rural poultry farming in scientific way and to increase the production of egg and meat, to reduce the dependence to other States for eggs, distribution of improved birds sustainable in the environment to the members of Self-Help-Group would help to reduce the malnutrition, gender inequality and through which the depraved socially backward sections of the society can be dealt with.

There are no difficulties in marketing of poultry product in this State due to non-vegetarian food habit, increasing demand of animal protein due to population growth, urbanization and income growth. Poultry is one of the fastest growing segments in protein supplementation.

Considering the necessity to produce eggs, at least three times from the present, within a quickest possible time, and also keeping ahead the scenario of maximum numbers of small poultry holders in the State (major share is held by women sector) a scheme named as Distribution of chicks/Ducklings to Women SHG farmers may be implemented through out the State of West Bengal.

Objectives

  1. To generate supplementary income to the rural women and to reduce the gender inequality.
  2. To enhance the Poultry production particularly eggs & meat.
  3. To promote poultry farming in scientific way with special attention to the bio-security in the backyard farming.
  4. Employment generation.
  5. To reduce the malnutrition.
  6. To improve quality of life.

6. Modernization of Training Institute / Centre

( To be implemented by --- DAH&VS)

livestock rearing in India is mainly practiced as a backyard production system wherein the farmers rear a few livestock specially for meeting the household requirement. By being as an important means of income and employment for these households livestock helps to alleviate poverty and smooth income distribution. In addition livestock asset can be easily converted into cash, and thus as cushion against shocks of crops failure particularly in the less favoured environment.

There is a tremendous scope of promoting their backyard livestock keeping in India into commercial micro enterprises through entrepreneur-ship development programmes and entrepreneur favourable government policies. Apart from rearing of livestock based industry has vast scope of generating additional income and employment through its various allied enterprises such as the commercial livestock rearing units, livestock input industry, livestock product processing units and organic livestock production units which can be harnessed for increasing employment and income in the rural areas. These are to be developed through training intervention which aimed at providing basic technical and entrepreneual skill to the rural farmers and unemployed youths.

Different types of Training Programme for in-service personnel, farmers / unemployed youths are being organized different training centres under A.R.D. Department.

8. Modernisation of Pig Breeding Station, Haringhata Farm

( To be implemented by --- DAH&VS)

The challenges, faced by our country in securing the food as well as nutritional security to fast growing population, need an integrated approach for livestock farming. Among the various livestock species, pig is the most potential source of meet production and more efficient feed converters being omnivorous in nature. If adequate fed, it has been reported that an average gain of 700 gm per day from birth to slaughter is possible with the latest production system, which means we can look for producing a 100 Kg. pig in 15 days of age. Dressing percentage is high, i.e. 65-80%.

Pigs are highly prolific among meat producing livestock, having a gestation period of 114 days. Average litter size is 12 and litter size up to 16 is very common. A sow can be bred as early as 9-10 months of age and can furrow twice in a year.

Protein content of pork is more than beef and comparable to mutton and chicken. Vitamin B1, B2, Niacin, B6, B12 and minerals content of pork is more than other meat. The bristles, bones and fat are some of the important by products that are used in preparation of brush, food products, fertilizers etc. pig dung can also be used as manure. The original piggery section of Haringhata Farm Complex was started in the year 1957 and ultimately it was turned to Regional Pig Breeding Station in the year 1960. this section at present maintains 700 pigs and 26 Acre (approx) land is involved for this Breeding station. The object of this Breeding station are follows :
