Introduction
This special issue intends to promote Animal and Veterinary Science Research, with a view to improving livestock production and helping to reduce poverty. The issue will focus on livestock production and management strategies, disease prevention and control, livestock economics as well as environmental issues.

The scope of this special issue will cover but not limited to:
1. Animal nutrition
2. Animal anatomy and physiology
3. Livestock disease prevention and control
4. Animal genetics and breeding
5. Animal production and the environment
6. Animal bio-economics
7. Micro livestock
8. Forage/pasture and range management
9. Monogastric animal production and management
10. Ruminants animal production and management
11. Veterinary pharmacology
12. Veterinary public health
13. Animal products and processing
Worthy of note is the fact that poverty reduction and environmental issues which are now front burners in government programmes, will feature in this special issue.

It is hoped that this special issue will benefit Researchers, farmers and policy makers immensely.

Aims and Scope:
1. Animal science research
2. Veterinary science research
3. Pasture research
4. Animal production and the environment
5. Poverty reduction through improved animal production
6. Livestock management and bio economics
7. Animal breeding and genetics
