Abstract:
We conducted a comprehensive review of livestock farming in
Bangladesh to unveil current challenges and potential opportunities in this agricul-
ture sector. Six challenges were selected as the major constraints to livestock
farming in Bangladesh: climate change and natural hazards, poor veterinary care,
breeding and management resources, marketing and international trade, and the
SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Solutions to these challenges (such as hazardous weather
shelters, intensified surveillance of biosecurity for farms and markets, and non-
government, government, and private organizations working together to educate
and assist farmers) must target specific regions where the solutions would have the
greatest effect.
