to help and bring the required developmen­t. The extension worker therefore, would give a helping hand to make the committee tick with adequate funds when provided.

The best disease control is through an efficient program of community participat­ion. Hence, the farmers should be educated and convinced that this could be taken in as a selfhelp exercise so as to contribute to raising animals that are marketable locally as well as for export.

This is how the inter-grated livestock production program would help the rural livestock farmer contribute to an agricultur­al economy based on a solid crop and livestock. The fall of one would affect the other part of the agricultur­al sector especially among our rural farmers. In farming a weak ox cannot pull a plow, and a sick cow cannot give the required milk. Geneticall­y a weakling would inherit a weakling. So it is important that a sound health is taken as a prerequisi­te to a sound livestock developmen­t program.
