Presentation transcript:

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought After completing this Lesson you have learned to answer: 1.Why most of the farmers maintain livestock? 2.Explain how fodder availability during drought affects livestock? 3.Explain how water scarcity impacts livestock maintained by a farmer? 4.Apart from fodder and water, how drought affects livestock? Lesson 3: How drought affects livestock management?

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Most of the farmers keep livestock to carry out the farm operations and also to supplement their food needs, in terms of milk and meat, of their families. Any excess livestock products earn extra money for them. So any impact of drought on their farming activities will reflect on the management and upkeep of the livestock with them. Lesson 3: How drought affects livestock management?

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Less or no fodder for the livestock as the crops are adversely affected by drought. High cost of fodder with the reduced availability of fodder in the farms. Increased expenses for transporting the fodder from neighboring areas. Unavailability or high cost of water for livestock. Lesson 3: How drought affects livestock management?

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Reduced milk and livestock products Forced selling of the livestock Cost of new or supplemental water resource development (wells, pipelines) Decreased health of livestock Higher mortality rates of livestock. Lesson 3: How drought affects livestock management?
