dc.descriptionBangladesh 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.

In recent years the women farmers of Bangladesh have been involved and sustained beef fattening program in rural areas of the country.
