  2. Dr Anup Kalra, CEO, Ayurvet Ltd SustainableAgriculture and Livestock production for Food Security

  3. Agriculture and Livestock- The inseparable components of the Rural Agricultural Household Farmer’s joint family (at least 2 generations) Farm land Livestock wealth Crop residues Grains and cash crops Milk, Meat, Eggs, fuel, and Draught power manure Supplements income and nutritional needs Major means of sustenance Optimum resource utilization and value creation

  4. Integrated Sustainable GrowthNeed of the hour 1% of world forest 2% land & 4% water Sustainable Development Largest Milk producer 18% population of world Agri production? Population on Inc

  5. Estimation of food demand Million metric tonnes In India, Food demand likely to nearly double from ~440 in 2007 to ~850 million metric tons in 2020 • Demand Situation • The world has to double food production by 2030 • Increasing income levels and educational levels raising demand for better food • The current high prices are an indicator • Meat consumption expected to increase rapidly (1 unit needs 5 units of crop output) 1.5x Cereals 1.8x Vegetable & Fruits • Choice to increase production of food, fibre and feed to meet demand? • Bring more land under cultivation • Reduce wastages – Storage & transportation • Develop & deliver suitable improved agronomic practices • Improve per unit of resources i.e. land & Water • Integrate livestock & Agriculture 2.6x Milk 2.8x Meat/Fish/eggs SOURCE: Working paper no. 209; ICRIER; NSSO; interviews

  6. GAURDIAN OF INDIAN PROTIEN Market Size (Volume) Protein Conversion Nutritional Protein (MT) Dairy Production 112.5 million MT of milk 3.5% 39.4 lakh MT Inland Aquaculture 4.9 million MT of fish/shrimp 20.0% 9.8 lakh MT 62.2 lakh MT of protein Meat Production 4.0 million MT of meat 21.0% 8.4 lakh MT Egg Production 59.8 billion eggs 14.0% 4.6 lakh MT Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency Source: Ministry of Agriculture, CSO

  7. ? HEALTH NUTRITION Disease Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  8. Some ways to handle….. THE SITUATION Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  9. Increase the intrinsic power Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  10. Strong BaseThe first step towards productivity….. Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  11. Technologies : Livestock • Sexed Semen The productivity of milch animal is only about 1500 kg per lactation as against the world average of 2300 kg. • Balanced feeding and Hydroponics The reproduction efficiency would help in calf a year programme. • TMR feed blocks Total mixed rations would improve milk production • Processing of food and designer milk Value addition is being created for milk etc Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  12. Ayurvet Hydroponics feed Grown in a soil less medium and controlled environment A novel initiative for green feed Referred to as feedbecause of its higher protein content when compared to conventional fodder

  13. Technologies : Poultry • Cholesterol Free egg The consumption would go up further • Feeding for special quality chicken meat The economic gains are higher • Improvement in FCR Brings in better returns to farmers in less time • Processing of food Value addition is being created for meat etc Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  14. Health index? HEALTH DISEASE The natural way to produce safe food

  15. Technologies: Agriculture • New Varieties and Hybrids • Low seed replacement rates in Food crops like Wheat, Jowar, Oilseeds and Pulses etc • Integrated Nutrition Management • Optimum fertilizer application and soil fertility management • Integrated Pest Management • Pest resistant varieties, Judicious application and residue elimination • Extension education & training Evolving new media and farmers awareness for delivering customized advisories • Farm Mechanization • Covering entire gamut of sowing till harvest and post harvest activities for all crops

  16. Relinking the inter-related issues.. Pollution Food Safety Fuel Security Residues Global Warming Health & Wellness Malnutrition Unemployment Water reserves Soil Fertility ..For sustainable development

  17. Total Resource Management Optimum utilization of resources Improve animal and soil health and food situation

  18. Benchmarks to be set • Assessment to be made on present and past (5years back) production levels to decide future targets • Identification of key changes that have led to improved production and areas that offer potential for drastic improvements in production efficiency • Identification of lacunae in our system that have to be removed to tap the huge Export Opportunities that exist for Animal food products Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency

  19. “No one dares to be rude To a nation that has ample food” To see ourselves as a developed nation in the next 20 years Food Basket of Asia Animal Health for Higher Production Effeciency
