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.
Also, the report presents a quick tour of each of the 29 Indian
states & 6 union territories. The report lists Jammu & Kashmir,
Rajasthan, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh among others as the regions

in order to prepare this report, which includes a comprehensive
analysis of the opportunities and challenges before the Indian
livestock industry. As per the experts, “The disaggregated and
