 20th Livestock Census

Introduction
The Department of Animal Husbandry & Dairying
under Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry &
Dairying attributes critical importance to livestock
and to the collection and availability of up-to-date
and accurate data related to livestock, as they are
the vital component of rural economy. For proper
planning and formulation of any programme meant for bringing further improvement in this
sector and its effective implementation and monitoring, valid data are required at every
decision making stage.

The Livestock Census is the main source of such data

in the country. The livestock census is conducted
across the country periodically since 1919. The census
usually covers all domesticated animals and head
counts of these animals are taken. So far, 19 Livestock
Censuses were conducted in participation with State
Governments and UT Administrations. The 20th Livestock Census was launched during the
month of October, 2018. The enumeration was done in both rural and urban areas. Various
species of animals (cattle, buffalo, mithun, yak, sheep, goat, pig, horse, pony, mule, donkey,
camel, dog, rabbit and elephant)/poultry birds (fowl, duck and other poultry birds) possessed
by the households, household enterprises/non-household enterprises were counted at that
site. Another important feature of 20th Livestock Census is it has been designed to capture
Breed-wise number of animals and poultry birds.

For the first time, livestock data were collected

on line in 20th Livestock Census. Advance
technology has been adopted to collect data
through tablet computers. The National
Informatics Centre, Ministry of Electronics & IT

1|Page
has developed Android based mobile application for data collection with various features such
as data entry module to facilitate recording the data on tablets, web-based work application,
local government directory codes etc. The data captured by the enumerators have been
verified through proper data checking process carried out by the supervisors through web-
based programmes. Besides the initial scrutiny, another level of validation of data was also
carried out with the help of a separate web-based data validation programme in which
supervisors were allowed to correct any wrong entry.

The Animal Husbandry Departments of States/UTs

have been entrusted to conduct the field operations.
In the 20th Livestock Census, the data were collected
and scrutinised mostly by para-veterinarians and
veterinarians. In this whole Census operations more
than 80,000 field staff were deployed for smooth
conduct of 20th Livestock Census. Training was an important component for 20th Livestock
Census as for the first time field staff were required to operate tablet computers for such
massive census operations. Training was conducted at various levels starting from “All India
Training Workshop for Trainers” at Delhi, followed by State, District level trainings. Apart
from training, Training Manual, Tutorial video, online e-learning classes etc. have been
arranged.

The 20th Livestock Census was carried out in about 6.6 lakhs villages and 89 thousand
urban wards across the country covering more than 27 Crores of Households and Non-
Households.
