Integrate livestock with other crop research’

Our Bureau

Hyderabad, Oct 12 Dr Carlos Sere, Director-General of the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), has called for the integration of livestock research with the other crop research since 30 per cent of the agricultural GDP globally comes from the livestock sector.

Addressing the three-day meeting of Asia-pacific Association of Agricultural Research Institutions (APAARI), he said livestock was also the most dynamic part of agriculture since with changing consumption patterns there was an increasing demand for meat and meat products worldwide.

It was hosted by International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and the Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR).
