"Since from the days of Epic Ramayana, and Mahabharata days, cattle rearing is considered as a holy and profitable occupation of Indians. In India cattle rearing is considered as a secondary occupation which provides larger employment opportunities. The Govt. of India has launched Operation Flood-I, II, and III to increase the yield/output from animals.

The book tries to narrate the problem of maintaining milch animals and also suggests certain policy recommendations to improve the income distribution in India." (jacket)
