Though mixed farming has been a common practice in India since immemorial due to existence of complementary and supplementary relationship between crop production and animal production systems dairy has gained a momentum due to commercialization and it is a rural income generating activity in India. Agriculture enterprise has not provided constant employment to rural people but dairy has not only provided gainful employment but also provided assured and regular income. The national income from animal husbandry has increased from 3 per cent in 1950 to 25 per cent at present in GDP / GDPR of agriculture. Hence it is necessary to know the cost structure and profitability / sustainability of dairy to formulate policies for developing animal husbandry in India with particular reference to dairying which has high adaptability feasibility acceptability profitability and sustainability in rural India. Dairying even provided regular income during the past 5 drought years. Hence an attempt has been made in this book to know the position of dairy animals in semi arid regions affected due to drought during 5 past years. A cluster of villages were selected in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh Kolar district of Karnataka and Erode District of Tamil Nadu. At each location it covers 75 farmers i.e. 15 households each in landless marginal (1 ha) small (1 2 ha) medium (2 4 ha) and large farmer families. The cost and returns for Holstein Friesian Jersey and mixed crossbreds vis a vis local cows and local buffaloes were studied and optimum feeding schedules (dry fodder equivalents and concentrate feed) at different milk production levels were also worked out based on the prevailing practices. The methods to minimize the cost of milk production for maximizing income were also suggested in the book. 192 pp.

Women may have been the first agriculturists as the steps from gathering roots and seeds to planting and cultivating food fodder fiber and fuel wood crops in small pockets are closely associated with them. In South East Asia most of the work in the fields is done by women and the system is deemed to be female. The figures from the International Labour Organization reveal that women are responsible for 50% of food production in the developing world. There is hardly any activities in agricultural production expect ploughing in which women are not actively involved. Seasonal migration by men counterparts imposes an extra burden on women as they have to cope with the dual responsibilities of own farm/wage labour and managing their children. Under these conditions women's participation in agriculture increases rather than decreases because of the migration and employment of men outside the village. Despite their major contribution to agricultural production and performing a large number of others activities such as attending off farm works animal husbandry processing of food for family use collecting of wood and water gathering fruits for family use and thus contributing a lot to the income generation of the family as a whole yet women were put under house wifezation and thereby excluding women altogether from the purview of policy making. In fact the agricultural development system had not yet taken farm women population seriously in the main stream of its development processes. Therefore it is high time that this issue is discussed and deliberated at the national and regional levels in order to sensitize people about its potentiality prospects and obstacles. The present book will provide information on various aspects of involvement of women in different on farm and off farm activities decision making economic contribution and drudgery undertaken by them. It is imperative for the planners and policy makers to have a composite index reflecting the extent of gender based inequality in wages in the society in order to make effective policies and programmes addressing the issues involved properly. 176 pp.
