Feed and fodder availability 1. Cultivation of fodder tree2. Storage of Improved Quality Fodder3. Conservation & Storage of
Feed & Fodder Hay & Silage: ––
Preserve the fodder in the form of hay fromBerseem & other grasses as well as silage from(a) Maize- harvesting at well developed cob.(b) Jowar - at flowering stage.(c) Oat(d) Hybrid Napier – 40-45 day old.(e) Water hycianth mixing with Rice straw in ratio
of 4:1 with 70 kg molasses /ton of clean waterhycianth.
(f) Potato leaves mixing with wheat straw in ratioof 7:1 and should be supplemented with 3%molasses.
Hay: – Berseem/Lucerne and other grasses. Bales of hay and other dry fodder should
be stored in dry places at a height of lastflood level and covered with asbestos sheetor polythene sheet.
2. Cultivation of fodderRabi maize if waterstagnated upto Nov/December

Health and disease management Veterinary Preparedness with Medicines, Vaccines andprovision for mobile ambulatory van.
VaccinationDuring flood stress becomes an incriminating factor for
the precipitation of diseases in livestock andpoultry.
So, necessary vaccination of livestock and poultry shouldbe done against economically important contagiousdisease.
This will be helpful not only to check epidemic inanimals, but also to reduce the probability ofzoonoses in human beings.
Care should be taken for mass vaccination of livestockand poultry with a view to covering 80% oflivestock population in order to achieve herdimmunity.
Mass vaccination should be conducted by a team ofDepartment staff with proper maintenance ofdetailed Inoculation Register.
Pro-active steps should be taken to receive and stock therequired doses of vaccines against different diseasesfor their use in face of Flood.
Animal safety, Health camp andTreatment
Important Suggestions for animal andPoultry safety
During flood, all efforts should bemade to rescue most of the livestockand poultry as carefully as possible.
The people should be made consciousthrough announcement with the helpof mikes or other means ofcommunication, so that they mayescape with their livestock andpoultry to safe area.
The fisherman or the people whoknows swimming should be deputedfor the rescue of drowning andfloating animals and birds.
During flood do not leave halter orheadstalls on animals.
Do not tie animals together whenreleasing.
Report the location, identification anddisposition of livestock and poultryto authorities handling the disaster.
Health camp and treatment
Water borne diseases are one of themost common phenomena during theflood
Diarrhoeal diseases outbreaks canReport the location, identification anddisposition of livestock and poulrty toauthorities handling the disaster.
Sanitation, deworming,treatment, health camps Cullingof Sick animals and disposal of
carcass
Maintenance of Sanitation:Adequate attention is to be paidto disinfect the premises oftemporary sheds with the helpof bleaching powder, phenol,carbolic acid etc. In no case thecarcass/ cadaver should come incontact with healthy animalsrehabilitated in sheds.Arrangements should be madeaccordingly.
De-worming after the flood:Immediately after flood, theanimals like cattle, buffalo.Sheep, goat, pig, dog andpoultry need to be de-wormedwith suitable broad spectrumanthelmentics. This will enablethe animals to regain properhealth.
In water logged area, sucks canbe introduced as biologicalcontrol measures against snailsto protect livestock fromparasitec disease.
Treatment of sick animals: TheDisposal of Carcass: the

Health camp and treatment
Water borne diseases are one of themost common phenomena during theflood
Diarrhoeal diseases outbreaks canoccur after drinking contaminatedwater.
Diseases that can occur during floodshould be given special attention andaccordingly medicines should beavailable in the health camp for thefollowing mentioned diseases.
disposal of dead animals andbirds are to be done by AnimalHusbandry Department.Accordingly, necessaryarrangement should be made forprompt and easy disposal ofcarcasses during the Flood andPost-Flood period.Carcasses of animals affectedby the disease are the chiefsource of soil infection. Theyharbour the germs in largenumbers and liberate them fromboth artificial and natural bodyopenings into the surroundingsoil.Methods of Carcass disposal tobe adoptedBurialBurningCompostingVulturing
s. Health Camp after the flood:Protection of livestock from outbreaking and communicablediseases be made. Health campsare to be organised in Floodaffected areas to restore thenormal breeding capability ofbreedable population as well asto restore the normal health oflivestock and poultry.

Treatment of Non infectious Arrangement should be made for the
treatment of drowning and traumaticinjuries, aspiration pneumonia,lameness and other surgical cases inthe health camp.
Disinfection of livestock premises andPoultry shed
Disinfection of livestock premises and the temporary sheds
should be done with the help ofbleaching powder, phenol, carbolicacid etc

MedicinesAll Districts should be earmarked for flood.
An inventory of required medicines to treat theaffected livestock in case of eventualitiesshould be made.

The Govt. should take steps to procuresufficient quantity of essential life savingmedicines.List of life saving MedicinesCorticosteroidsNikethamideAntibloatAdrenalineAntihistaminicAntidotes for common poisoningAntisnake venomBroad spectrum antibioticsAnti-inflammatoryAntipyretic and AnalgesicsFluids and Electrolytes
Mobile Veterinary ClinicsMobile Veterinary Clinics should be kept ready
at Veterinary Hospital or VeterinaryCamps so that immediate treatment ofinjured and affected animals may be done.
For this MVC must have adequate drugs likeantibiotic, analgesic, dewormer, ointment,antisnake venom and emergency healthcare facilities along with trained personnel.
A good no. of mobile clinic teams should beplanned consisting dedicated and experiencedtechnical workers with allotment of area ofoperation.
The teams should be kept in readiness havingrequired stock of medicines and equipment towork in any adverse situation.A telephone directory should be maintained at
the District level by collecting the telephonenos. of Vets, Para-Vets, NGOs / youth clubs /societies, volunteers etc. to collect feedback andplan the activities during the emergency.

An emergency kit for poultry should be madeready well in advance. The Poultry kit shouldhave Cage, mask, mash, pellet feed trough,waterers, detergents, poultry vaccines,Veterinary drugs, workers protection uniformetc.
