Solution 1.a:
Ambon is a fermented mixture of oilcake, grain meal and jaggery. As it is fermented, the nutritive value of this mixture increases. Thus, it becomes a good supplementary feed for milch animals. Milch animals become strong and robust and their milk yield also increases. Therefore, milch animals are fed with ambon.

animals should be well
maintained in the following ways :
(1) Daily care.
(2) Keeping their sheds clean.
(3) Floor to be washed with germicides to keep away flies, fleas
and gnats.
(4) Regular deworming of the animals.
(5) Protection of the sheep from blood sucking ticks and lice.
(6) Proper and timely vaccination of the animals. Bird flu and
Ranikhet disease of poultry and rabies of dogs have no cure.

medical treatment should be given in time.

animals are greater as they give more yield. Indian cow gives
5 to 6 litres of milk per day. If Indian cow and Jersey, Holstein or
Red Dean Bull are crossed, their offsprings yield 10 to 12 litres of
milk per day. Cows of the Kandhari, Devani, Khilari and Dangi
varieties of Maharashtra are selected for cross breeding at the
national level.
8. Occupations complementary to agriculture :
Animal husbandry is the complementary business to farming.
Animal Uses

9. Complementary occupations : Sheep farming (rearing
sheep), poultry, piggery (pig farming), sericulture, pearl
