Livestock and forage sector is the backbone of Indian agriculture, looked at to enhance productivity, impact stability, and double farmers income. Livestock sector contributes nearly 4.4% to the total GDP. But, Indian animals are low yielders due to lack of quality feed and fodder and poor genetic potential. Currently, India faces a net deficit of green fodder, dry crop residues and feed. This calls for a need to understand the forage scenario of the country to ensure supply of quality fodder by adopting sustainable production and conservation techniques. The Textbook on Forages is designed to provide adequate and up-to-date information on overall forage management. The book is divided into ten chapters covering different aspects, viz. Introduction to forage and livestock resources of India; Kharif, Rabi and perennial forage crops; Grazing resources and their management; Forage processing, conservation and utilization; Farm machinery; Non-conventional forage resources; Issues and strategies, etc. to give in-depth details and provide comprehensive understanding of the subject with latest facts.
