About the Book


The book discusses up-to-date and detailed information about the nutritional quality of forage in the biodiversity-rich Himalayan region and their potential in livestock feeding.

- Provides a comprehensive discussion on the prospects of Himalayan forages.

- Collates findings and data based on more than two decades of research on nutritional quality of different temperate grasses, fodder trees, legumes and non-conventional forage resources.

- Includes information on different forage resources, nutritional quality of forages, niche based nutritive forage species, varietal improvement of different species for nutritionally rich forages, non-conventional forages and modern biotechnological intervention for quality improvement of forages.

- Offers a valuable resource of information on forages for researchers and policymakers

- Include information oriented toward livestock feeding, influencing their health, production and productivity affecting economic status of farmers.
