The state of Himachal Pradesh is located between latitude 30o 22'40"N to 33o 12'40"N and longitude 75o 45'55"E to 79o 04'20"E and altitude range from 350 to 6,975 m above msl. About 92% population in Himachal Pradesh is rural and depends directly on agriculture, horticulture and animal husbandry (Anonymous, 1994). The rearing of livestock is an integral component of the economy of the state and inseparable from the agricultural component of almost every household in rural areas of the state due to small size of the holdings. A survey was conducted to study the animal husbandry practice and problems in selected 300 households.
