DEPARTMENT OF ANIMAL HUSBANDRY, DAIRYING AND FISHERIES Vision Sustainable growth of livestock, poultry and fisheries for nutritional security and economic prosperity Mission Preserve animal genetic resources, conserve indigenous breeds, protect, strengthen and improve livestock and fish health, create employment opportunities and livelihood support for women and other marginalised groups, increase production, productivity and value addition of livestock, fish and poultry products.
IMPORTANCE OF ANIMAL HUSBANDRY SECTOR IN INDIA Integral component of Indian agriculture supporting livelihoods of more than two-thirds of the rural population Livestock and Agriculture are interdependent and crucial for livelihood & food security. India has one of the largest animal husbandry sectors in the world having largest livestock population with 520.6 million heads 20.5 million people depend upon livestock for their livelihood. Livestock sector provides employment to about 8.8% of Indian population
IMPORTANCE OF ANIMAL HUSBANDRY SECTOR IN INDIA Livestock sector contributes 4.11% GDP and 25.6% of Agriculture GDP Indian livestock sector is one of the largest in the world with a holding of 11.6% of world livestock population India has 56.7% of world s buffaloes, 12.5% cattle, 20.4% small ruminants, 2.4% camel, 1.4% equine, 1.5% pigs and 3.1% poultry. Value of Milk alone in 2014-15 was Rs 4.92 lakh crs which is more than Wheat (Rs 1.29 lakh cr) and Rice (2.31 lakh cr) combined (Rs 3.6 lakh cr) Livestock production directly contributes to food security by being the source of milk, meat, and eggs

DISEASE PATTERN IN LIVESTOCK ANIMALS Livestock are more prone for diseases because of: Huge population Lack of Awareness among farmers Backyard system of rearing Inadequate Nutritional status of animals Foot and Mouth Disease and Haemorrhagic Septicemia Endo and ectoparasitic infestation are common infestations Haemoprotozoan infections (Babesiosis, Trypanosomiasis, Theileriosis etc) Brucellosis and PPR
CHALLENGES IN THE ANIMAL DISEASE MANAGEMENT Increased susceptibility Vaccine delivery system Antimicrobial resistance (AMR & AMU) Disease surveillance and reporting system Animal Traceability Biosecurity
NEED FOR VETERINARY MEDICINAL PRODUCTS (VMPS) Healthy animals can produce safe and nutritious food products. To maintain healthy animals medicines are required to prevent diseases The Veterinary medicines being used should be safe, effective, without any residues in the food products
REGULATORY APPROVAL FRAMEWORK FOR VMPS IN INDIA In India, the exclusive regulatory framework for VMPs is same as for human drugs Regulated by the Drugs & Cosmetics Act and Rules 1940/1945. DADF monitors the drug evaluation based on product safety, efficacy and relevance to the Indian market. DCGI issues the licence for drug manufacture or import based on the NOC of DADF
VMPS VS HUMAN HEALTH INDUSTRY The development of Veterinary Pharmaceutical market depends on the size and value of animal population or on the value of the single animal. Thus the impulses for the economic development of the Veterinary and Human health market are different Economical aspects mostly drive the livestock husbandry and emotional values defined by the animal owners The VM industry is fully dependent on the ROI for all food producing animals
PAST BRAIN STORMING DISCUSSIONS Recommendations of the Confluence of Veterinary Regulatory Reforms in India 6 th Oct 2012 A Separate Veterinary Drug Control Authority Drug Consultative Committee Vet. Drugs & Formulations (VDFs) New Drug Approval Committees include Vets for VDFs Veterinary Pharmacopoeia required Vets as Veterinary Drug Officers/Inspectors for VDFs at State level Veterinary Drug Portal & Harmonization of Standards Govt. policy: pro-development & attract industry and investment
BRIC COUNTRIES CONCEPT BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, China and India) show a rapid growth in livestock production and to meet their domestic demand as well as continue to import more than they produce. The IFPRI anticipated that in the future many of the developing countries would follow the BRIC countries in terms of economic growth. IFAH (now HealthforAnimals) noticed that the demand of livestock products in the EU, USA and Japan could be met more and more by convenient products from the developing countries. An economic profitable livestock husbandry is only possible when effective management and adequate treatment with VMPs is applied.

WAYS FORWARD Creation of exclusive section at CSDCO involving Veterinarians for VMPs approval Exclusive regulations and guidelines for VMPs Veterinarians to be appointed in Regional FDA houses to evaluate and examine VMPs Easing the process of approvals for drugs approved in EMA / US-FDA Developing Exclusive Portal for VMPs
