    (2009-04) Chakma, Subaran
    The study was undertaken to investigate the production system of swine in Rangamati and Khagrachari districts for a period of 60 days from 17th December’ 2008 to 16th February’ 2009. Production system of swine i.e. housing, feeding, breeding, diseases prevalence, vaccination program, bio-security, marketing of swine with socio-economic status and constraints of pig rearing were investigated during the study period. It was revealed that mostly poor and landless people reared pigs (54.71%) where most of them were illiterate (43.39%). Rearing systems they followed, were the free range (43.40%), Tin shed housing (24.53%), Fencing (20.75%) and Neck tethering (11.32%). At Rangamati pig farm the average litter size, birth weight, post- weaning weight, and weaning period were 9.46, 1.7kg, 8.86kg, 41.66 days, in family level farming it was 7.57, 1.33 kg, 7.10 kg, 44.36 days respectively. The prevalence of diseases was Hemorrhagic septicemia (13.73%), Pneumonia (17.64%), Coccidiosis (21.57%), NS diarrhea (37.25%) and others (9.8%) in Rangamati pig farm. The economic benefits generated from farming were mainly selling of piglets and the figure was satisfactory.

    FOOD, FEEDING AND GROOMING BEHAVIOR OF LARGE INDIAN CIVET (VIVERRA ZIBETHA) IN CAPTIVITY AT CHITTAGONG ZOO.
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04)
    Length-weight measurements, food and feeding behavior of large Indian Civet(Viverra zibetha) are carried out at Chittagong Zoo, Chittagong, during December to February 2008-2009. A group of two Civet individuals was studied. The study was based generally on two days observations in a week. The total length weighed and food and feeding behavior were noted by direct observations and measurement. The food items generally supplied to the Civet at Chittagong Zoo are beef only. The average food consumption was 350 gm per day per animal and this is about 5.12% of body weight. When the large Indian Civet see the caretaker coming with their foods, they come down from the platform and/or sitting places and make a to and fro movements on the floors of the cages. They drank water before and after feeding. Self-grooming includes scratching of its own skin and hair roots. In social-grooming the individuals scratch skin and fur of one another.

    FORMULATION OF LEAST COST PROBIOTICS FOR POULTRY
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04) Mahfujur Rahman, Mohammad
    An experiment was undertaken for testing the efficacy of different probiotics.27quails of 34 days old were used in this experiment, duration was from 5th December, 2008 to 4th February, 2009, at Chittagong. The experiment designed by three treatments group and each treatment having three replications. In each replication, there were 3 birds. Same ration, amount, environment was provided to them. But different probiotic was supplied to them. There was no probiotic used in T-1 groups, marketed probiotic (prosol) supplied to T-2groups, prepared probiotic supplied to T-3 groups. By these work I observed the efficacy of egg production on different probiotic.there was no significant difference among the treatment groups from 7th to 11th weeks but difference in 6th week.egg production started earlier and high at 6th week in prepared probiotic used group. So we can easily replace high cost marketed probiotic by low cost prepared probiotic.

    EFFECTS OF UREA SUPPLEMENTION AND UREA TREATED RICE STRAW DIET ON THE BODY WEIGHT GAIN OF LOCAL EMACIATED CALVES OF BANGLADESH
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04)
    Six local calves approximately 1.5 to 2.5 years of age with an average live weight of 64 kg were divided into 3 dietary groups according to some scope and privileges. They were given 3 different straw based rations namely, Urea supplemented diet (Diet-A), Urea-molasses treated rice straw diet (Diet-B) and Untreated rice straw diet (Diet-C). Each animals received 2 kg straw with ad libitum green grass (average 1 kg) daily for 70 days. Total body weight gain and dry matter intake were determined. The total dry matter intake in the dietary animals group-A and B was higher than the dietary animals group-C but not significant (p>0.05) (difference is 13 kg). But significantly higher body weight gain was observed in the animals’ group-B which have given the urea-molasses treated rice straw diet as compared to the urea supplemented diet and urea untreated control group.

    REPORT ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS ON LAYER PRODUCTION IN BANGLADESH
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04) Islam, Md. Torikul
    The study was conducted in 8 layer farms of Manikgong and 2 layer farms of Gazipur for two months to assess the environmental effect on layer performance. A significant inverse effect of high temperature on feed consumption egg productions as well as egg shell thickness was observed. However, there was not so significant effect of humidity on those parameters. On the other hand, at 3000ppm CO2¬¬ and 37ppm NH3, due to combined effect, feed c consumption and egg weight were decreases significantly but not such impact on egg shell thickness.

    PARTICIPATION OF RURAL WOMEN IN GOAT REARING IN A SELECTED AREA UNDER BOGRA DISTRICT
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04) Islam, Md. Sirajul
    The main purpose of this study was to assess participation of rural women in goat rearing. Pakulla union under Sonatola upazila of Bogra district was the locale of the study. All the rural goat rearing farm family women heads of Pakulla union constituted the population of the study. Data were collected from a sample of 100 women heads selected randomly during15 December 2008 to 14 January, 2009. The extent of participation of rural women in fifteen items of goat rearing activities was measured through a five-point rating scale. Ten selected characteristics of women were independent variables. Coefficient of correlation ‘r’ was computed to test relationship between the dependent and independent variables. Findings revealed that participation of women in goat rearing ranged from 20 to 48 against expected value 0 to 60 with a mean of 35.87 and standard deviation of 8.64. Data also showed that largest portion (63 percent) of the respondents, while 28 percent and 9 percent fell into low and high participation categories, respectively. Data revealed that participation of rural women in the item ‘excreta cleaning of goat’ had the highest participation index (PI= 327) and ranked 1st , ‘looking after the kids’ had second highest participation with PI of 315 and participation in ‘caring during pregnancy period’ was in 3rd position with PI of 307 among 15 items. On the other hand, The lowest participation was observed in ‘arrangement of vaccination’ (PI= 21) and in ‘castration in time’ with PI of 46 among these 15 items. Correlation analyses indicate that knowledge about goat rearing; extension media contacts were found to have positively significant relationship with participation in goat rearing. On the other hand, education, farm size, annual income had negative significant correlation with participation in goat rearing, while respondents’ age, marital status, family size, credit receipt and grazing land availability had no significant relation with participation in goat rearing. Regarding problem confrontation in goat rearing, data indicated that among the 10 major problems, ‘lack of proper training about goat rearing’ ranked first with 251 problem index (PI). Lack of available grazing land came next in rank (Rank 2, PI 242). High mortality rate of kids was the next problem (rank 3, PI 216).

    INCOME GENERATION AND CONTRIBUTION OF LIVESTOCK FOR VULNERABILITY REDUCTION THROUGH US-CLP AT ISLAMPUR, JAMALPUR
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04) Asaduzzaman, MD.
    This study was conducted to evaluate the contribution of livestock to the poor and vulnerable women, men & children living within the riverine areas of five districts of the northern Jamuna by Chars Livelihoods Programme (CLP). The data was collected from different chars of Islampur upazilla in Jamalpur district. In this study it was found that the average income/animal(catle)/month was 1531 Tk. and av. Income/animal(sheep)/month was 413 Tk. In phase II av. Income/animal(cattle)/month was 1895 Tk. and av. Income /animal (sheep)/month was 616 Tk. In phase III av. Income/animal(cattle)/month was 1695 Tk. and av. income/animal(sheep)/month was 277 Tk. From this study I found that if the CLP beneficiaries and other rural peoples get more financial technological support from Government and other nongovernment organization like CLP they can become self depended within short time. Thus, they can contribute to GDP. If the financial support provided in early time about 5-10 years ago then the present time their financial background become strong and self depended. ATP animals strongly prove that vaccination and disease are interdependent which is shown by pearson 2 (2 x 2) contingency table. So, this types of NGO’s helps necessary in our country which brings glorious golden future in remote river sided peoples of Bangladesh. Therefore, Poverty alleviation is possible by Chars Livelihoods Programme (CLP).

    Title: Study on scenario of backyard chicken rearing system with productive performances and socio-economic condition of Sujanagar, Santhia & Bera Thana of Pabna District of Bangladesh.
    (Chattogram Veterinary & Animal Sciences University, Khulshi-Chattogram, 2009-04) Islam, Shohidul
    The present study was carried out to investigate backyard chicken production systems in three regions (Bera, Santhia and Sujanagar Thana of Pabna district.) of Bangladesh.150 households were selected, where 50 households from each thana of Pabna district of which 15 villages from three thana of which 5 village of each thana and 10 households per village were taken as selected area. Feeding systems and availability of feed for raising chicken, production performance of scavenging chicken and profitability of raising chicken & socio-economic condition were evaluated. Information was collected from the farmers through a questionnaire. The study revealed that the highest number of chicken per farm was found with large farmers (25) while the lowest was found with landless farmers (5). Simple random sampling technique was followed to collect data.The highest number of chicken was available at the farm household during April-June (summer) and that was the lowest during July-September. Highest number (85) of eggs per bird was found during January-March while the lowest (45) was during July-September. The highest number of chicken eggs ( 36.1 percent) were consumed by the large farmers, while the lowest number of chicken eggs (13.7 percent) were consumed by the landless farmers. The landless farmers hatched highest percentage of chicken eggs (37.2) than other farm categories. These results demonstrated that the landless group used maximum eggs for production. 55% of the farmers of Sujanagar used mixed feed compound, but in Bera only 40% of farmers fed mixed feed to their chicken & the rest was either paddy or wheat alone or a mixture of both. The hatchability rate was 89% in Sujanagar, Santhia was 88.5% but in Bera it was only 85%. The percentage of egg production in Sujanagar was 68%, in Santhia was 72%, and Bera was 75%. The differences in hatchability and egg production between the three areas were significant. Family wise & per bird total income is Tk. 2124 & Tk. 223.95 respectively which is higher than net cost Tk. 1324.23 & Tk. 138.70 respectively. The result of BCR (Benefit Cost Ratio) was 1.60 in family wise and per bird wise was 1.61. Its indicate that if backyard chicken rearer invest tk.1.0 then they can get tk.1.60. So family wise they get profit Tk 0.60 & per bird they get profit Tk. 0.61.
