Abstract

Livestock rearing is an important component in the rural India and domestic and commercial livestock are cows, buffalo, sheep, goat, pigs, rabbits, poultry etc. Huge amount of livestock waste is mostly handled by traditional way. Waste from animal production sites can greatly affect the surrounding environment, leading to increases in greenhouse gas emissions and decreases in water and air quality. Waste management practices can also determine the health of the animals, affecting the spread of disease between animal production sites and from animals to humans. The knowledge about livestock faecal pathogens, livestock waste & environment and health concerns of livestock wastes is crucial for control and prevention of transmission of such zoonotic faecal pathogens. The rapid growth of livestock production highlights the urgent need for effective policies to regulate intensive livestock operations and support environmentally and economically sustainable approaches to handling waste.
