The provisional key results of 17th Livestock Census along with summary results of 16th Livestock Census have been released in July 2003. One should use the comparative results of All India data of 2003 census with that of 1997 census with caution as the projected figures of some States in 1997 may differ from the actual field level reality. Especially in the case of Bihar, which has not conducted the Livestock Census since 1982, the field level reality may be different from the projected figures. The livestock census has four parts- Livestock, Poultry, Agriculture Implements & Machinery and Fishery statistics. These four parts involve huge amount of data compilation-livestock contains 82 data items with 50 totals, poultry 17 items with 9 totals, agricultural implements 57 items and fishery statistics 96 data items with 7 totals. The total amount of data if inserted in a worksheet, the number of cells, it will occupy, will be approximately 20 million. The All India Summary of Livestock, Poultry, Agriculture Implements & Machinery and Fishery statistics has been prepared providing data on these items with rural and urban break up and released. The All India summary contains a state wise write up and comparison with 1997 census. The State wise reports provide same kind of data district wise with rural and urban break up and released. Each type of reports has been prepared in such a way that the write up provides a detailed picture of the state’s livestock position between the last two censuses. The interest of policy planners, livestock data experts, researchers etc. many a times concentrate on the status of work and milch animals in various states and in the country. Hence these two comparisons have been added in the summary. A lot of pictorial graphs have been prepared to provide a glimpse of the comparisons.
