dc.description | Bangladesh is a low-lying densely populated country of more than 150 million people, 75%
of who live in rural areas; rural poverty rate is 63%, of which 36% are extreme poor (Hodson,
2006). Cattle of Bangladesh are an inseparable and integral part of the agricultural farming
and agribusiness system. Beef fattening is an emerging sector for employment and income
generation for the rural poor, especially landless, destitute and divorced women. Cattle
fattening is an effective tool for poverty alleviation for the rural poor. One of the advantages
of the cattle fattening by the rural farmers is that they use locally available cattle feed
resources during the Eid festival. In recent years the women farmers of Bangladesh have been
involved and sustained beef fattening program in rural areas of the country. | en_US |
