Question

How is livestock census conducted in Tamil Nadu?​

Answer 1

Answer:

According to the 20th Livestock census conducted in June 2019, the population of cattle and goats increased by 74 per cent and 17.65 per cent respectively, over a period of 10 years. The State government attributed this increase to a programme begun in 2011, wherein milch cows, goat and sheep were distributed free of cost to rural poor women, who thus became owners of movable assets that could be liquidated in times of need.
