Abstract

Due to the dominant role of household animal raising in China's animal production, an improved understanding of household animal raising practices is essential to study China's feed grain markets. Rural household surveys were conducted in several regions in China to examine issues related to household animal raising practices such as animal raising scale, feed composition, sources of feed and feeding efficiency. This paper reports the findings from these surveys. Implications of the survey findings are discussed.
