Integrating Crops and Livestock
Integrated farming utilizes cropping patterns which involve the raising of crops, animals, and or trees. A labour intensive integrated farming practice includes crops, duck, fish etc. on small-holdings, based on maximum recycling principles. With appropriate crop combinations and proper agronomic practices. integrated farming will not only increase grain yields and ensure economic returns, but it will also make available sufficient livestock feed and maintain soil health. This book discusses the modern trends in integrated faming and describes technologies for mixed farming systems and identifies major constraints. It is designed for students of agriculture, farmers and decision-makers concerned with agriculture and rural development.
