Abstract

A computer based information system for assessing availability and reequirement of animal feeds in the country was designed and developed. The information system has been developed using user friendly graphical user interface system with MS ACCESS 2000 as back-end and VISUAL BASIC as front-end tool for dataentry, data maintenance and retrieval. The systeln provides information on the quantitative and qualitative availability of different feed resources for individual states and the requirement in terms of dry matter, DCP and TDN for standard ruminant livestock unit. The information can be retrieved through user-defined queries in tabular and graphical form. The computer based information system developed would be an important tool and aid for short term and long term planning by policy makers, researchers etc. in improving the livestock productivity in the country.
