Taking care of each aspect of Indian livestock industry astutely, Indian rural women
are the most indispensable part of agro-production and agricultural domains. The
contribution they are making to the overall livestock industry of India is simply
immeasurable.

Press Release Body = RNCOS Research: (http://www.rncos.com/Report/IM032.htm) With
their immense contribution to the caring and ranching of livestock, women workforce
dominates the entire livestock industry of India. The job responsibilities taken up
by the rural women include outdoor jobs such as herding the animals for grazing and
collecting fodder for them, whereas the indoor jobs include milking, cleaning and
feeding and so on. Besides providing an overwhelming support to Indian livestock
industry, the rural women are the backbone of Indian agricultural industry.

As far as their contribution to overall agricultural production is concerned, the
role of Indian rural women ranges from mangers to landless laborers. The land-owning
status of farm households defines their role and mode of participation in
agricultural production. However, their job responsibilities and extent of
involvement are different in different agro-production systems.

As per a recent market research report named "Indian Livestock Industry - An
Industry Analysis" published by RNCOS, "Women account for 55% of livestock farming
labor whereas their participation in works related to the care of animals is above
77%". On the whole, Indian rural women make up for 93% of overall employment in
dairy. However, their average contribution to the entire farm production is
estimated around 45% to 56% of the total labor.

challenges before the Indian livestock industry. As per the experts, "The
