Chapter-1 Profile

1.1 Introduction

The word ‘Odisha’ is the anglicized version of Odia, derived from Odra or Udra tribes,

which once inhabited the central belt of what is now modern Odisha. Animal Husbandry

continues to be an integral part of agriculture and provides milk, meat and egg. Almost 70%

of the farmers in Odisha own livestock and most of them are earning their livelihood out of

it.

Odisha possesses 4.4 % of livestock wealth of the country which is depicted in Table

- 1. In Odisha, almost 85% of our population resides in rural areas and the same

proportion is dependent on agriculture for sustenance and Animal Husbandry for additional

income. Animal husbandry

and poultry farming are

expected to play an

important role in

supplementing the limited

income and employment

opportunities particularly for

the small and marginal

holdings. The sector also

provides employment to

many farmers involved in

processing, value addition

and marketing of livestock products.

The 59th round of National Sample Survey Report (Report – 493) says that rural

households keeping Cattle,

Buffalo, Ovine (Sheep &

Goat), Pig and Poultry are

47 %, 2.4 %, 13 %, 1% and

24 % respectively. The

percentage of livestock

owned by different

categories of farmers have

been estimated based on

NSS report – 493 and

summarized in Table – 2. It

reveals that the distribution

of livestock is more equitable compared to that of land and more than 80 percent of

livestock are owned by the landless, marginal and small landholding families. This sector

provides employment not just for the farmers through livestock farming but many others in

processing, value addition and marketing of livestock products.

The share of Agriculture sector in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at national level

during last 3 years is around 15 percent and contribution of Animal Husbandry in the

Agriculture sector is more than 25%, which is presented in Table-3.

Implementation

Moreover, as per the 12th Five Year Plan (FYP) report of working group on animal

husbandry & dairying, growth in livestock sector remained about 1.5 times larger than in the

crop sector. This implies the critical importance of the sector. As per economic survey

report of Odisha, Agriculture and allied sector plays a dominant role in the economy of

Odisha and the share of this sector in the State’s GSDP is expected to be 17.5 percent in

2012-13 (advance estimate).

Next to agriculture, animal husbandry is the most important economic activity in the

rural Odisha which has around 18 % share in the agriculture GSDP and significantly

contributing around 4.4 % to GSDP during 2010-11 at constant price (2004-05), which is

presented in Table -4.

1.1 Profile of the department

The Animal Husbandry Directorate has a network of 2939 Livestock Aid Centers

(LACs) located at Gram Panchayat (GP) level and 540 Veterinary Dispensaries (VD) located

at Urban and Semi urban places of the State for providing veterinary services like health

care, artificial insemination (A.I.), fodder cultivation and organization of capacity building

programmes for the farmers. The livestock wealth, organizational hierarchy, staff strength,

department infrastructure are covered in later paragraphs, depicting the wide area coverage

and functioning of the department.

1.2 Livestock wealth in Odisha

The density of cattle, buffalo, sheep and goat per thousand household is 1047, 65,

142 and 587 respectively, which shows the dependence of people on Animal Husbandry

activities for their livelihood. As per last census 2012, 36 % of the household are rearing

large animal (cattle & Buffalo), whereas 14 % of the household rear small animals (Sheep,

Goat) in the State. Moreover, the density per hundred person is high in coastal areas which

are incidentally prone to frequent disasters like flood, cyclone etc. Livestock sector also

provides employment opportunity for farming community through production and marketing

of milk, meat, egg. Thus, disasters pose significant threats to the livestock wealth in Odisha,

which have negative impact on the livelihood of the people by reducing an important source

of income not just in rural areas but also urban areas. Besides, Highly Pathogenic Avian

Influenza (HPAI) outbreak occurred in the State during Jan – March, 2012 and other animal

disease epidemics such as Anthrax, Brucellosis and Avian Influenza are potential threats in

the State. These outbreaks can create havoc and shatter the economy of the livestock

holders along with a public health threat.

The Geographical Information System maps indicating species wise and district wise

distribution are depicted in Figure 1 to 4 for better appreciation of distribution of animal

wealth in Odisha.

1.4.2 Staff strength

The officers and staff play critical role in Disaster Management. Without them no

plan can be effectively implemented. The Livestock Inspectors are the field face of this

department. Their role in Disaster Management is of paramount importance. Unless these

are filled up the department gets constrained in handling not only regular activities but gets

hamstring during disasters. The department has large scale vacancy of staff those are

responsible for providing veterinary services at the cutting edge. The detailed staff strength

and vacancy is given in Table-6.

Chapter 2 Hazard, Vulnerability,

Capacity and Risk Profile

2.1 Nature, frequency and intensity of disaster to which the

department is prone

Odisha is vulnerable to a large number of natural calamities, out of which flood and

cyclone are very frequent. In the context of human vulnerability to disasters, the small,

marginal farmers and economically weaker sections are the ones that are more seriously

affected. As stated earlier, they mostly keep livestock for subsistence income or as an

insurance against disasters like drought, flood, etc. when agriculture crop failure occurs.

Therefore livestock sector disaster management is critical to protect against vulnerability of

farmers. The frequency and intensity of disaster for livestock sector is given in Table – 7.

Table-7: Frequency and Intensity of Disasters for livestock sector

Sl. No Nature of Disaster Frequency Intensity

1 Flood Regular feature High

2 Cyclone Rare Moderate to high

3 Drought Every 3 – 5 years Moderate

4 Disease Epidemic Any time High

5 Tsunami Rare High

2.3 Causes of losses/damages As elaborated earlier the impact of cyclone and floods to the livestock sector ranges

from death of animal to many other complications leading to production loss and there by

huge economic loss incurred by the owners. The possible losses have been analyzed and

given in Table-12.

Table-12: Causes & Consequences or loss due to Floods and Cyclone in Livestock

sector

Sl. No. Causes of losses Consequences/ Loss

1 Water logging (During flood & Cyclone) Parasitic infestation, Contagious disease

outbreak

2 Water surge due to flood Animal die from hypothermia and

drowning

Collapse of departmental buildings,

damage to equipments and records

3 Damage of feed & fodder Feed shortage and loss in productivity

4 Shed damage Injury to animals

5 Departmental infrastructure damage Disruption in Veterinary Service delivery

6 Water scarcity Affect general health condition

7 Crop loss and non availability of Paddy

straw and other byproducts for Cattle

feeding In case of drought

Production loss

Distress sale

The impact of a disaster can be categorised as direct, indirect or tertiary. Apart from

the public health consequences of disasters, such as zoonotic diseases and the threat to the

food supply, disasters also have negative economic consequences. Livestock provide milk,

meat, traction power for farming and transport, dung, hides, etc. Animals also provide a

relatively safe investment option and give the owner social importance. Disasters affecting

livestock therefore have a negative impact on the livelihood of the people by reducing an

important source of income in rural areas.

When animals are affected by disaster, the following problems occur

a. Zoonoses

b. Animal bites

12

c. Impact on mental health due to the emotional involvement of the owners

with the animals

d. Reduced dairy and livestock production because of scarcity of feed and water, high

livestock mortality rates

e. Spread of diseases and loss to domestic and wild animals

2.3 Hazard wise vulnerability of the department to various hazards

2.3.1 Flood hazards and damage to Livestock Sector Floods have become a regular annual event in Odisha, causing extensive damage to

agricultural production, loss of property and livestock and loss of human life. In addition, in

the aftermath of a flood, the environment, rivers and drinking water become contaminated.

Animals standing in contaminated floodwater for long periods become susceptible to

infections of their hooves and skin. In addition, the cuts acquired from disaster debris make

animals more vulnerable to tetanus and toxins contained in the floodwater. Common animal

illnesses caused by sewage-contaminated water include tetanus, hepatitis, dysentery, and

food poisoning. In addition to this, pathogenic viruses, bacteria, and other organisms

present in floodwater can enter the body through openings in the body. Therefore, Livestock

are more vulnerable than Human beings during and aftermath of disaster like flood. The

departmental service institutions like veterinary Dispensary and Livestock Aid Centres are

also prone for damage due to flood. While analyzing the districts affected during last five

floods, the district which are most vulnerable are viz., Angul, Balasore, Bhadrak, Cuttack,

Jajpur, Kendrapada, Puri, Nayagarh, Khordha, Subarnapur, Boudh, Jagatsinghpur, Keonjhar,

Mayurbhanj and Sundergarh. The moderately vulnerable districts are Ganjam, Kalahandi,

Sambalpur and Bolangir. The rest 11 districts are less vulnerable for flood.

2.3.2 Cyclone hazards and damage to Livestock Sector Due to the low-depth ocean bed topography and the coastal configuration, Odisha is

prone to cyclones. The frequency of the tropical cyclones in the Bay of Bengal is greater

than anywhere else in the world because of low pressure and depression in the bay caused

due to warmer water in Bay of Bengal. Cyclones are caused by intense low (Atmospheric)

pressure created near warm sea. This results in strong winds, heavy rains and storm surges.

Mostly coastal districts are very prone to cyclones. Despite low percentage of occurrence,

the level of livestock and departmental infrastructure loss that cyclones cause is very high.

The Phailin followed by flood that occurred on 12th to 15th October, 2013, caused severe

loss to livestock wealth as well as to the departmental service infrastructure (179 VD &

LACs) in fourteen coastal districts of Odisha. During Phailin-2014, SRC fund amounting to

Rs.13.95 crore has been spent. An amount of Rs. 660.83 lakh was spent for procurement of

3751.05 MT cattle feed and Rs. 714.00 lakh was disbursed to livestock owners towards

replacement of animals. The major problem confronted was the disposal of decomposed

carcasses in Ganjam District, as it required dedicated trained volunteers with requisite

machineries to collect and bury in a scientific manner to arrest possible public health hazard

issues. Community based organizations lacked the necessary trained manpower, resources

and know-how to cope with the challenge. In the aftermath of the cyclone, feed and fodder

were scarce and consequently many animals starved and the productivity of animals

13

decreased. Similarly, during Cyclonic storm - Hudhud occurred on 12th Oct, 2014, 199

villages in 74 GPs in 24 Blocks, and in five districts namely Koraput, Rayagada, Malkangiri,

Gajapati & Kandhamal are mostly affected in recent Cyclone. The total livestock population

in these 5 districts comes to 21.9 lakh large animal and 11.5 lakh sheep & goat. Around 10

% i.e., 2 lakh large and 1 lakh small animals were affected in 5 districts where the recent

cyclone occurred. Different vaccines (in single and multiple doses) were supplied and more

than 70 % of the animals were vaccinated in the affected districts.

2.3.3 Drought hazards and damage to Livestock Sector. Due to erratic behaviour of the monsoon about 60% of land mass is prone to

drought, since Odisha falls in the low to medium rain fall regions. It should be realized that

time factor of rain fall is important besides the total precipitation. The long term solution to

draught is water and soil conservation and growing of appropriate crops befitting the

amount of water availability. Mostly Western districts (KBK districts) are very prone to

droughts. There is an increasing fodder shortage especially green fodder, in all drought

prone areas that reaches crisis proportions during drought years.

2.3.4 Heat Waves Hazards Due to heat wave coupled with water scarcity, livestock are affected with heat stress.

The Zoo animals also get affected by heat stress.

2.3.5 Animal Disease Epidemic Hazards Animal diseases like Hemorrhagic Septicemia, Black Quarter, Peste des Petits

Ruminants, Enterotoxaemia, Anthrax, Goat Pox and Foot and Mouth Disease can cause

severe loss to the farmer, which can create havoc to community in case of large scale

outbreak. The disease pattern and outbreaks occurred during 2013-14 is indicated below in

Figure – 7 and Figure - 8.

The sero-surveillance is taken up by collecting serum samples from the field. The

detailed analysis is being done by collaborating unit of Project Director, Animal Disease

Monitoring and Surveillance (ADMAS), ADRI as well as by ADMAS, Hebbal, Bangalore.

Details can be assessed from PD, ADMAS website.

2.4 Hazard analysis based on spread, and its effect by various hazards As livestock sector is vulnerable to all sorts of disasters and an attempt is made to

find the outcome for each type of hazard which is compiled in Table-13.

The adaptive capacity like technology, infrastructure, information, knowledge, skill,

social capital, economic wealth, institutional mechanism to cope up with potential outcomes

is high in case of flood, chemical poisoning, heat waves. But in case of disease epidemics,

cyclone and drought it is low.

In Odisha, the economically and socially weaker segments of the population keep

livestock and they are the ones most vulnerable to disasters. About 80% of populations rear

livestock who depend upon subsidiary income through livestock farming. Due to this,

majority of population is vulnerable to multiple hazards in the State.

2.4.1 Capacity of the department to deal with the identified disasters

Animal Resources Development Department is having well developed network for

providing veterinary services. But during natural calamity like flood, cyclone, earthquake and

disease epidemic the institutional network get disrupted. With the limited technical

manpower, treatment of ailing animals, preventive vaccination, awareness creation can be

provided subject to degree and intensity of disaster is limited to low and medium

magnitude. In order to provide effective veterinary services assistance from ODRAF,

Voluntary agencies, Panchayat Raj, Revenue, Police etc. is required. In case of higher

magnitude of disaster, technical experts, Veterinary staff will need to be brought from the

neighboring state to manage the crisis.

2.4.2 Gaps in the existing capacity

The department is handicapped due to large scale vacancy of grass root level

workers (30%) i.e., Livestock Inspectors (800), Veterinary Officers (300), Attendant (1200).

Poor accessibility to veterinary services due to shortage of manpower and limited availability

of medicines increases the vulnerability of the population during disasters.

Drinking Water facility is not available in 200 Veterinary Dispensaries and 1630

Livestock aid centres, which affects livestock care during summer season.

Cold chain management of vaccine is a major issue during disaster due to non availability of

backup power supply at Veterinary Dispensary level.

16

There is a need to prepare a standard and uniform disaster operation procedure in

the department to deal in various situations. The department personnel are not adequately

trained regarding management and mitigation of different type of disasters including relief,

rescue and rehabilitation. Adequate financial powers are need to be vested in the

Directorate to manage the crisis.

2.4.3 Risk analysis

Various risks involved in the livestock sector when exposed to different types of

disaster are given in Table-14.

Table-14: Types of risks in the livestock sector while exposed to different

disasters

Sl. No Hazards/Disaster Risk

1 Flood and Cyclone High due to loss of livestock, diseases in

animal, shed damage, Injury to animals

Disruption in milk procurement, damage to

departmental buildings, equipments,

disruption in breeding services (Artificial

Insemination)

2 Drought/ Heat wave Risk is moderate

Production loss

Feed and water scarcity

Distress sale

3 Disease epidemic

(Avian Influenza,

Brucellosis, Anthrax)

Risk is high

Public health importance

Department does not have adequate capacity

to handle such disaster. This requires a

multidisciplinary approach.

4 Chemical poisoning/

Tsunami/ Earthquake

Low risk as the prevalence is less.

The Hazard and risk vulnerability analysis has been prepared based on the available

data and past experiences. Premier research institutions of the state like ORSAAC, OCAC and

other such establishments have the capacity to undertake technology-driven risk assessment

in the state. Livestock sub sector can be included while making vulnerable analysis.

Similarly, each district may need to undertake district specific vulnerability analysis and tie

up such analysis with the District Disaster Management Plans.

17

Chapter 3 Prevention, Mitigation

3.1 Measures necessary for prevention of disasters, mitigation

Prevention and mitigation plans will be evolved for vulnerable areas to reduce the

impact of disasters. The following measures and investments will be undertaken to minimize

the collateral damage usually caused by the impact of any disaster.

Table-15: Measures required for minimizing the impact of disaster

Sl.

Particulars Measures required

1 Capacity building at

all level in vulnerable

areas flood/cyclone

State level –

For better supervision, monitoring and preventive measures

during disaster in consonance with Disaster Management

Plan, one day training-cum-awareness programme will be

organized at state level. Two batches of training on Disaster

Management were conducted during the month of May,

2014 at VOTI. 50 Officers (Deputy Directors/ CDVOs,

SDVOs, ADRI, Senior technical Officers from Directorate and

OBPI) have attended the training. Such training will be

organized regularly at VOTI for field Vets.

District level – BVO/ VAS/ AVAS/ Paravets will be trained

for effective management of flood, cyclone etc. They are

being sent to GAA for training regularly.

Community level- 29th, October of each year will be

observed as the disaster mitigation day in Livestock sub-

sector. In this particular day a public awareness program

will be organized in each village to sensitize the community.

Village volunteers will be trained regarding rescue and

shifting of livestock to animal shelter, carcass disposal,etc.

2 Public awareness

through IEC activities

Mass awareness programme would be done through

different audio-visual media to sensitize livestock holder.

Print media is extensively used during last Phailin and

ongoing heat wave situation for the purpose.

3 Installation of Tube

well and water vat

During drought as most of the affected animals are subject

to scarcity of water, tube wells along with water vats are to

be installed at V.D. & L.ACs campus devoid of such facilities.

Funds have been placed with RWWS Dept. for installation of

150 tube wells. It is also highly essential to commission at

least 350 numbers of tube wells along with water vats at

V.Ds /L.A.Cs to meet the crisis. The above works need to be

taken care by RD Department.

18

3.1.1 State level capacity building programme

For better supervision, monitoring and preventive measures, training cum awareness

programme at state level are being organsied. In this programme, Director/ Joint Director

chairs the training workshop and CDVOs, SDVOs, DDs, ADRI and OBPI staff along with

personnel involved in the training activity in the training institute participates. Such training

workshop are being conducted at VOTI regularly.

3.1.2 District level capacity building programme

A similar capacity building program will be organized in the district level by involving

District Management Authority to sensitize the field staff working at the cutting edge. In this

programme personnel, who had attend state level programme will facilitate at district level.

Here the participants will be BVO/ VAS/ AVAS/ OMFED staff/Paravets. Depending upon the

numbers of the participants the training batch will be decided. At least a batch size of a

programme should have not more than 50 participants. Event will be managed by CDVO of

the respective District.

3.1.3 Public awareness program at village level

29th, October of each year is observed as the disaster mitigation day. In this

particular day a public awareness program will be organize in each village to sensitize the

community. Prior to organize this programme at village a village contact person (VCP)

has to be identify who will be always keep in touch with the block level office and give

information regarding any kind of disaster, if any in the village. In this programme all the

villagers along with PRI members will participate. Technical personnel from District/Sub-

division/Block will coordinate this programme with the help of village contact persons. Event

will be managed by VAS and LI of the respective District. In the public awareness campaign

at the village relevant poster, leaflet, pamphlet in simple odia language will be distributed to

all the participants. The assistance of Disaster Risk Management (DRM) will be taken for

training of Veterinary staff.

3.1.4 Construction of community shelter

Construction of community shelter for rehabilitation of livestock in the flood affected

area is required. The size of the shelter may be 100ft x 30 ft. usually in an ideal situation 60

sq ft space is required for an adult cow. But for emergency shake, we can put at least 2 cow

in that prescribed amount of space. In that respect, required numbers of shelters of 100 x

30 ft size can be constructed in each village of the vulnerable pocket for flood, during

emergency 10-15 animal can be accommodated in a single shed.

The fund required for prevention of disaster, mitigation, capacity building and

preparedness is of very high order which is not available with the department .The detailed

fund requirement for 3 year period would be Rs. 3084.63 lakhs is indicated below in Table -

3.2 Integration into its development plans and projects

The department will use hazard resilient design for new construction of veterinary

institutions particularly in the hazard prone areas. The existing departmental buildings in the

flood/cyclone prone areas will be assessed for vulnerability. Wherever, there is a need

necessary steps will be taken for modification/alteration of buildings.

Department will promote incentives to private veterinary service providers and

volunteers willing to assist during emergency.

21

Department will promote supplementary income generation for off farm activities

such as Dairy/ Goat/ Sheep/ Poultry farming in flood and cyclone prone areas.

Disease surveillance system will be strengthened to mitigate animal disease

epidemics.

The departmental training centres like Veterinary Officers’ Training Institute and

Animal Disease Research Institute will integrate disaster management training in their

training calendar.

As per the revised curricula formulated by Veterinary Council of India, Disaster

Mitigation has been included as a part of under graduate training programmes. Topics

relevant to our context such as flood, cyclone will be included in the course content.

Introduction of disaster linked insurance will be actively pursued and insurance cover

will be made available for livestock.

During disaster procurement of cattle feed becomes a problem. Prior to rainy season

the department should have short tender for a period of three month for procurement of

cattle feed. If such situation will not arise, the tender will be null and void. All the

departmental fodder farm will maintain buffer green fodder stock so as to respond promptly

to any disaster.

Steps will be taken for preparing information formats and monitoring checklists for

monitoring and reporting

3.3 Review of enactments administered by it, its policies, rules and

regulations

Disease Epidemics of zoonotic importance such as Anthrax, Brucellosis, Avian

Influenza should be included in the list of Disaster. These diseases can occur at any place. If

the disease incidence is low, it is possible by the departmental personnel to control but if the

magnitude and frequency is high, there is a need for multi sectoral approach.

Administrative support to ban the inflow of birds/ eggs/ chicken from the notified Avian

Influenza state is required. Executive order from the state Government is essential by

suitable enactment for prevention of disasters, mitigation in case of Anthrax, Brucellosis,

Avian Influenza.

22

Chapter 4: Preparedness Plan

4.1 Measures necessary for preparedness and capacity-building

A critical component of preparedness in Animal Husbandry sub sector is education

and training of officials and the livestock owners at risk, training of intervention teams,

establishment of standards and operational plans to be applied following a disaster.

The following measures and investments would be undertaken to ensure effective

preparedness to respond any disaster is given below in Table-18.

Table-18: Measures and Investment required for strengthening different

components

Sl. No Particulars Measures required

1 Strengthening of control

room

Steps have been taken to equip the Control room at

State level and District level with communication

facility like telephone, FAX, Internet, Computer,

Printer, Inverter, stationeries etc.

2 Coordination Mobility support requirement for movement of

departmental personnel to the affected areas is

highly essential as currently the department has

very few vehicles at their disposal,

As per the requirement, the vehicle and fuel cost

support will be provided by the District authorities

for Veterinary support functions. If required, DLRDS

funds are utilized for the purpose.

National Social Service, National Cadet Corps,

Nehru Yuva Kendras, local SHGs and other animal

welfare organizations Anandmargis will be

encouraged to support for the cause of livestock.

3 District specific disaster

management plan

All districts will make vulnerable analysis with

regard to livestock sub sector and accordingly the

CDVO is responsible to prepare a plan specific to

their district. The same will be submitted to District

Collector to incorporate in the District Disaster

Management Plan.

4 Emergency stock of

Medicine

At the State level emergency stock of essential

medicine will be procured and supplied to each

district to keep at district/sub-divisional level to

mitigate any disaster event.

5 Financial preparedness Delegation of power will be given to CDVOs to

spend from DLRDS account.

23

4.2 Budget requirement: Provision of funds for disaster

preparedness

Chapter 5: Response Plan

5.1 Pre Disaster

5.1.1 Mechanism for early warning and dissemination thereof

After getting warning from State authorities or District Administration, information

will be disseminated to field by the State/District Incident Response Team. Mass media like

TV, Radio, Press warning should also be considered for preparedness.

In case of any disease epidemic confirmation report either in the State or in

bordering areas of neighbouring state, Animal Resources Development Department will

appraise the State Disaster Management Authority and DDMA. The concerned District IRT

led by CDVO will apprise the District Administration about the protocol to be followed from

time to time issued by the Central/State Government.

The State and District Control room will be activated to function round the clock in

the concerned district. The State IRT will furnish the status report about the establishment

of control room at district level. CDVO will be responsible to provide all support to control

room at district level.

5.1.2 Trigger mechanism for response

After issue of early warning, Chief District Veterinary Officer of the vulnerable

districts will explain the detailed response plan at district level meeting of District disaster

management authority constituted in every district in conformity with GoI guideline for

planning, coordinating and implementing veterinary health care activities.

5.1.3 Response plan for responding effectively and promptly

The CDVOs of non vulnerable districts will prepare 3 separate teams of Vets and LIs

(up to 30 % of total strength) for deployment to the affected area at the request of State

IRT. The first team will be replaced after 7 days by second team and so on.

All the field staff will be asked to remain at their respective head quarter with

necessary preparation as per the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). During last Phailin,

adequate steps have been taken to disseminate SOP to field.

The control room will collect, collate and transmit information regarding matters

relating to the natural calamities and relief operations undertaken, if any, and for processing

and communicating all such data to concerned quarters. The list of volunteers and

community resources that is already available should be in readiness to support response

measures.

The Control Room will be manned round the clock during the peak period of disaster

till the relief operations are over. For this purpose one officer, one assistant and one peon

will be on duty in suitable shifts. The Officer-In-Charge of the Control Room will maintain a

station diary and such other records as may be prescribed by the department. The

particulars of all information received and actions taken should be entered in the Station

diary chronologically.

26

The procedure was meticulously followed during last Phailin and the CDVOs

furnished daily report to the head of office regularly in time. The control room at Directorate

was able to furnish the required information to various quarters in time.

5.1.4 Appointment of nodal officers to perform emergency support

functions The Chief District Veterinary Officer will be the nodal officer at the district level to

perform emergency support functions. The Joint Director, AH & VS will be the nodal officer

at state level. Directorate of AH & VS, Odisha will serve as a support agency for health care

of domestic animals. The department will also assist the District administration for assessing

feed, fodder, water, shelter requirement of domestic animals in the affected areas. In case

of disease epidemics the Project Coordinator ADRI will monitor the targeted and active

surveillance through his expert team for different sample collection and also for confirmatory

diagnosis after laboratory examination. The district administration will provide necessary

technical support for health care and vaccination to combat the epidemics.

5.1.6 Delegation of financial powers in case of disaster event

At the district level, quick response in case of any disaster is hampered due to want

of earmarked funds and power to spend. Therefore, following financial powers need to be

delegated to CDVOs to facilitate rescue and relief measures in case of any disaster. The

expenses would be made from DLRDS fund and can be reimbursed later on after sanction of

funds form SRC. The detail of delegation power needed is given in Table -23

5.1.7 Reporting procedures and formats

The block is the lowest unit and the Block Veterinary Officer will be responsible to

collect and compile the statutory reports determined by the department for disaster

management. The Sub-Divisional Veterinary Officer will compile the report and submit to

CDVO. CDVO will send the report to Directorate of AH & VS. The first choice for sending the

report will be through E. Mail. The following regular reports will be collected. The other

occasional reports will be collected as per the need specific to disaster. During Phailin all the

information were sent by E-Mail by the District Office to Directorate.

a. Pre assessment of village wise vulnerable areas

b. Livestock affected and loss

c. Relief measures like Supply of Fodder and cattle feed

d. Vaccine supply and utilization

e. Mobile teams deployed and Animals treated

(The detailed formats are given in Annexure-A to J)

5.1.8 Role of NGOs and voluntary sector and coordination thereof

Odisha Disaster Rapid Action Force (ODRAF) will provide assistance for rescue of

animals in the worst affected area during disaster. They will also help veterinary staff to

extend veterinary measures in the inaccessible areas.

There is a wide network of Community Based Organizations and voluntary agencies in

Odisha. Regular meetings will be held at more frequent intervals to face any untoward

incident. Such coordination meetings can be held at district level under the chairmanship of

DM & Collectors.

The role of the voluntary agencies and the CBOs which operate at the grass roots

level is crucial in motivating and mobilizing community participation in disaster response

measures for safeguarding livestock and for improving community coping mechanism during

disasters because of their close linkages with the local population and condition and

flexibility in procedural matter. They will be involved for raising awareness of the

communities, information dissemination, advocacy and planning, immediate rescue,

evacuation of animals.

5.1.9 Identification of suppliers for departmental supplies

The sources for procurement of feed / rice bran (Kunda) within the district and

nearest locations are identified, and the suppliers should be kept informed about the

emergency situation, which might require action at their level for production and supply to

the identified areas within the shortest possible time. Pre-arrangement or tie up with fodder

supply units should be done. During emergency, the cattle feed becomes a major problem.

OMFED and other such government agencies are intimated to be in readiness for supply of

cattle feed in short notice. Further, the Department can also make a short tender with

option for procurement of cattle feed for a period of three months (July, Aug, Sept). If such

a situation does not arise, the option will not be excercised. This may involve higher costs. If

such a situation arises, necessary approval should be taken from Finance Department.

30

5.2 Post Disaster

5.2.1 Role of NGOs and voluntary sector and coordination thereof

National Social Service, National Cadet Corps, Nehru Yuva Kendras, village level

SHGs and other animal welfare organizations will be involved in rescue and relief operations.

They will be intimated about the measures taken by the department and their feedback will

be considered for further streamlining the post disaster operations.

5.2.2 System of assessing the damage from any disaster

The local LI should keep all the record of the dead livestock/ birds if any in his/her

jurisdiction with all relevant information (Age, colour, sex and preferably owners name and

address). Before burial by “Carcass Disposal Team” (CDT)2 nominated by the revenue

authorities, under no circumstances, the CDT should burry or dispose any dead animal

without consent of local LI to facilitate compensation measures if Govt. desires.

The Local LI may come across some complaints regarding loss of livestock due to

heavy water current and the carcass may not be traceable. In such cases a missing /lost

profile may be maintained and a committee headed by local LI with any two following

members:-

o Local PRI Member

o Revenue Inspector

o Panchayat Executive Officer

o MPCS Secretary

The loss and damage to animals and shed will be submitted by Block Veterinary

Officer (BVO), which will be compiled at district level for onward transmission to District

Collector and Directorate in the prescribed format as per the CRF norms.

The departmental institutions like Veterinary Dispensary, Livestock Aid Centre and

Milk cooperative society, etc damage affects the service delivery. The assessment will be

done by departmental field staff and compiled by the CDVO as per the prescribed format

enclosed. The following asset value given in Table – 24 would be considered while

assessing the damage to departmental infrastructure.

5.2.3 Roles and responsibilities and coordination mechanism for the

department

The roles and responsibility of the department are:-

Awareness of people on precautionary measures

Treatment of injured cattle

Protection and care of abandoned/lost cattle

Control and containment of livestock diseases

As the above list of support functions need skilled and technical personnel, the ARD

Department will be directly responsible to undertake such activities. However, for other

activities like assessment of loss & damage, feed and fodder provision, carcass disposal the

field staff of veterinary department will coordinate with district authority and local NGOs for

quick response.

All the actors such as Livestock Inspectors, Add. VAS, VAS of the Vety Dispensary

and Block Vety Officers are expected to be involved in all the three phases of the disaster

and have different tasks to be accomplished in time. All the tasks has been elaborated and

mentioned in Annexure- I.

Coordination with District administration & other agencies

During Post Disaster phase only skilled person available in the field is Livestock

Inspector. In order to ensure optimal output from the skilled personnel in a short duration,

technical personnel (Vets and LI) from unaffected areas will be requisitioned.

Revenue officials will be kept on loop to seek assistance to reach marooned and cut

off areas.

32

The carcasses need to be evacuated and buried to avoid public health hazards.

Therefore, matter will be brought to the notice of district administration for engaging

suitable NGOs/animal welfare organizations to act swiftly.

Regular interaction will be ensured with Health Department to monitor public health hazards

emerging from livestock origin.

In case of Animal disease epidemics, the assistance from other line departments will

be sought to control and contain the epidemic.

5.2.4 Disaster Specific Response Plan

6.2 Norms of relief: Odisha Relief Code norms

a. In case of drought or scarcity of feed and fodder necessary provision of funds for

supply of fodder should be made in the budget of the Fisheries and Animal Resources

Development Department. Certain cattle camps may be arranged in selected areas where

the useful cattle may be provided relief at State cost under departmental supervision.

(Clause – 218 of Odisha Relief Code)

b. Forest Department may open certain forest areas for grazing of cattle at the time of

feed and fodder scarcity during disaster. Grazing fee shall not be levied for this purpose.

(Clause - 219)

c. Liberal advances should be given to the dairy farmers with a view to construct

temporary wells as well as for the purchase of fodder seeds and for ancillary purposes for

the growth of fodder crops. The MPCS may take the leading role for promoting cultivation of

fodder crops. (Clause – 214 of Odisha Relief Code)

d. In case of at large scale failure of crops, steps will have to be taken in advance for

the provision of adequate fodder for the cattle particularly during the months of March to

June. (Clause – 214 of Odisha Relief Code)

e. In absence of straw or grass, Kunda ‘I’ may be used as fodder. CDVO will assess the

requirement @ one kilogram per animal per day up to a maximum of 3 days depending on

severity of the flood and appraise to District Collector. (Clause – 214 of Odisha Relief

Code)

f. Department will undertake some emergency schemes for production of fodder both

departmentally and by giving subsidy to intending producers. The Department will prepare

such schemes for different agro-climatic situation and take action for saving the life of the

cattle as may be necessary.( Clause – 217 of Odisha Relief Code)

6.3 Minimum standards of relief

As per CRF norms the assistance will be provided to the livestock owners in order to

compensate the loss due to disaster. The revised norms are given below:

Norms of assistance from the State Disaster Relief Fund (SDRF) and the National

Disaster Response Fund (NDRF):

Assistance to small and marginal farmers/agricultural labourers:

i. Replacement of draught animals, milch animals or animals used for

haulage

Milch Animal

Buffalos/cow/camel / yak/ Mithun etc @ Rs. 30,000/- Sheep / Goat/ Pig @ Rs. 3000/-

35

Draught Animals

Camel/horse/bullock etc. @ Rs. 25,000/- Calf, Donkey and Pony @ Rs. 16,000/-

The assistance may be restricted for the actual loss of economically productive animals and will be subject to a ceiling of 3 large animal or 30 small milch animals or 3 large draught animal or 6 small draught animals per household irrespective of whether a household has lost a larger number of animals. (The loss is to be certified by the Competent Authority designated by the State Government).

Poultry:

Poultry @ Rs. 50/- per bird subject to a ceiling of assistance of Rs. 5000/- per beneficiary household. The death of the poultry birds should be on account of the notified natural calamity.

Note: Relief under these norms is not eligible if the assistance is available from any other Government Scheme, e.g. loss of birds due to Avian Influenza or any other diseases for which the Department of Animal Husbandry has a separate scheme for compensating the poultry owners.

i. Provision of fodder / feed concentrate including water supply and medicines in the cattle camps:

Large animals – Rs. 70/- per day Small animals – Rs. 35/- per day

Period for providing assistance:

Period for providing relief will be as per assessment of the State Executive Committee (SEC) and the Central Team in case of NDRF.

The default period for assistance will be upto 30 days, which may be extended upto 60 days in the first instance and in case of severe drought upto 90 days. Depending on the ground situation, the State Executive Committee can extend the time period beyond the prescribed limit, subject to the stipulation that expenditure on this account should not exceed 25 % of SDRF allocation for the year.

Suggestions to enhance assistance to affected farmers of livestock sector

In the Odisha Relief Code, it is mentioned about “Suitable standing instructions may

be issued by the Agriculture Department for conversion or rescheduling of loans at the time

of distress which were advanced to the agriculturists earlier by the Cooperative Societies”.

Similar instructions may be issued for conversion or rescheduling of dairy/goatery/

Poultry farming loans at the time of distress.

36

Chapter 7: Restoration and Reconstruction

The CDVO will prepare a contingent Action Plan for their district for reconstruction

and the State Action Plan will be prepared and submitted by Department to SRC.

7.1 Relief for restoration

a. Preparation of contingency action plan covering immediate/permanent relief to the

affected will be taken up by the district administration.

b. Consult the district Agriculture Department to propose fodder yielding /fodder crops

in their alternate contingency plans.

c. Advise the PR Bodies to provide safe drinking water to the livestock of affected areas

by way of constructing water troughs

Veterinary Services:

1. Exemption of User Fees for vaccination, treatment of animals at least for one month

in the affected area in case of Disaster notified by the State (Flood, Cyclone, Drought etc.

and exemption of user fees for 7 days for the Disaster notified by District.

2. Common veterinary medicine (List is given in annexure) will be provided at VD and

LACs for 1 month post disaster.

3. Animal Health Camps every month in a cluster for 3 months ( 5-6 villages and maxm.

3000 animals in one cluster)

7.3 Infrastructure

It includes veterinary dispensary, Livestock Aid Centre, District Diagnostic

Laboratory, Poultry hatcheries and Livestock breeding farms. There are chances of damage

during disaster such as Flood, Cyclone, earthquake etc. Damaged buildings should be

assessed and the report is to be sent to SRC for adequate funding needed for repair and

construction of Veterinary institutions (Veterinary Dispensary, Livestock Aid Centres, Milk

Producer’s Cooperative Societies, milk processing plants etc.)3 for quick recovery and

restoration of veterinary services in rural area. After Phailin, damage assessment was made

and the detailed restoration plan was sent to RD Department and R & B for necessary

construction and repair. The equipments which are coming under the category of lost/

damaged may be replaced to restore uninterrupted service.

3 The detailed estimation for departmental institutions are made at Page - 30, Table:24)

37

Chapter 8: Rehabilitation

Farmers are dependent on livestock/ poultry birds for their livelihood. The GSDP of

livestock sector is about 25 % of the GSDP of Agriculture sector. Farmers derive additional/

supplementary income through this activity. Hence rehabilitation plays paramount role in

restoring livelihood of farmer. In the event of a disaster, Livestock population is reduced

through death, distress sales and lost due to flood/cyclone etc. when it goes missing i.e.,

without being traceable. Due to stress: abortion, lamb & kid mortality and reduction in

breeding capacity is generally observed. Back yard poultry and small poultry farms are also

affected. Both standing crops and stores of livestock feed get also destroyed and grazing

land is affected, which further reduces availability of fodder to animals.

8.1 Livelihood programs and other support

Animal Husbandry based livelihood programs are given utmost priority in the State.

Livelihood assistance as per the need of the people should be provided for small scale

dairy/goat/poultry farming for restocking through Bank loan. This makes a significant

contribution, helping those who have lost their stock to begin to recover some livestock

assets. Participation of people in decision making for taking appropriate, feasible and timely

interventions in recovery programme is important. Gender roles and norms are to be taken

into account while restocking of animals. Access to capital for people to start small and

medium businesses is necessary as most of the population survives on extremely limited

cash flow. The bank loan at a low rate of interest with flexible borrowing terms and

conditions to sustain livestock based livelihood is required.

The Milk producer cooperative societies would be provided with revolving fund which

will be utilized to meet the working capital requirement for maintaining the dairy cows by

the MPCS members. Members will be given advance amount without any interest which will

be recouped later on from their milk.

Farmers in rural areas establish small livestock unit farms with the assistance of bank

loan under different schemes such as DEDS, KSK, PMRY etc. If such farms get affected due

to impact of disaster, the families get trapped in the vicious cycle of poverty.

Loan waiving measures or moratorium period for repayment could act as a safety net

to stop further descending down, rather ease the farmers from the disasters and inculcate

courage to cope up.

Animal health camps will be organized to treat sick and debilitated animals for

restoring normal health condition. After Phailin, steps have been taken to dovetail funds

under RKVY, NPCBB to avail funds for conducting health camps in affected areas.

38

Chapter 9: Knowledge Management

9.1 Documentation of lessons learnt Disaster preparedness is achieved by developing strong knowledge base on the

subject. Case studies on veterinary measures will be collected and documented. Articles on

response, rescue, rehabilitation of livestock will be collected from field staff, voluntary

organizations and others. These articles and case studies would be compiled by State SPCA

and a special edition of ‘Sambedan’4 will be published. The Department has taken steps to

publish ‘Sambedan’ regularly at 3 months interval. The measures taken during Phailin are

published in the departmental website. Success stories on Veterinary measures during

Phailin were collected from the field and shared with others.

Attempts will be made to collaborate with agencies like United Nations Development

Programme (UNDP) to organize seminar to share knowledge and best practices, coping

mechanism including various disaster management approaches, and technologies in disaster

management support among government agencies and other stakeholders. The State

Incidence Response Team of Veterinary Department will collate and share field experiences

on veterinary measures in the seminar.

9.2 Knowledge Institutions and mechanism for knowledge sharing There is a need to develop disaster management specific knowledge management

center. Although Gopabandhu Academy of Administration (GAA) is currently imparting

training to state government officials on disaster management, it is insufficient. Veterinary

Officer Training Institute can be strengthened to cater the need of the Veterinary staff in the

department.

Information about disaster preparedness, dos’ and don’ts in emergency, disaster

management plans, policies and guidelines available at various domains will be captured.

OSDMA will be the leading institution to develop a portal for organizing the explicit

knowledge and the codified tacit knowledge on handling of livestock during disaster

management for wider use. Intra network e-mail groups can also be moderated by OSDMA

where people from veterinary fields can participate.

9.3 Documentation of best practices and uploading in website The department is having a website i.e. www.spcaodisha, where all the plans,

procedures, circulars, guidelines, documents, best practices, reports, trained human

resources would be stored under the title ‘Disaster management’. This would be useful to

support the future implementation of the department’s disaster management plans.

Knowledge management on veterinary measures can play a vital role through

ensuring the availability and accessibility of accurate and reliable disaster response

measures when required. Identification of key disaster knowledge factors will be an enabler

to manage disasters successfully.

iv. Disease surveillance and Mobile Veterinary Unit services

1.2 Preparedness and Preventive Measures

i. Declaration of disaster zone:

Among the 30 districts of Odisha District / Sub-division / Block / G.P. / Villages those

are prone for various disasters will be demarcated as (a) Flood prone (b) Drought Prone

(c) Cyclone prone (d) Multi-disaster Prone area. Basing on the type of disaster the local LI

will make a preliminary assessment of livestock population every year in the prescribe

format.

ii. Pre-flood Vaccination:

During Disaster, stress becomes an incriminating factor for precipitation of diseases

in livestock and poultry. Mass vaccination and deworming of livestock and poultry will be

done against economically important contagious disease by May 15th of every year or prior

to monsoon in flood prone areas with a view to covering 80% of livestock population in

order to achieve herd immunity. Detailed Inoculation Register is to be maintained. Pro-active

steps are to be taken by concerned Livestock Inspector, Veterinary Assistant Surgeon to

indent the vaccine requirement after actual assessment of the stock to Chief District

Veterinary Officer (CDVO) through Sub-Divisional Veterinary Officer (SDVO). The CDVO and

SDVO will ensure procurement of vaccine and deworming medicine from the Directorate/

OBPI and supply required doses of vaccines/medicine to the field institutions. A detailed list

of vaccines used for different species of animals & birds against contagious diseases is

furnished below

iii. Stocking of Medicine: All Districts will earmark an inventory of required medicines (10 % of Annual supply)

to treat the affected livestock and poultry in case of eventualities till supply of medicines by

the Directorate of AH & VS after availing funds from SRC. At the district level stock piling of

surgical packets should be done. Equipments and drugs which are likely to be most needed

during and after disaster must be stored beforehand. Department vehicles with fuel should

be kept in readiness.

iv. Information, Education and Communication activity:

IEC materials are to be prepared and distributed to public regarding measures to be

taken in case of disaster. The community volunteers will be trained regarding carcass

disposal. Awareness meeting will be organized in disaster prone villages by the Gomitras/ LI/

AVAS/VAS/ Pasu-sahayak / NGO /CBO and other animal welfare organisations to discuss the

steps to be taken in case of disaster with the livestock keepers and others. The livestock

holders of large animals, small animals and poultry are trained regarding shifting of animals/

birds before disaster. The farmers are instructed to let loose their animals instead of tying

before disaster. For shifting of poultry birds to safer places, the farmers will be educated to

arrange bamboo baskets.

Awareness Programme through Advertisement in leading local Newspapers (twice in

a week for two months), Radio spot, Broadcasting of Door Darshan Spot are to be

conducted for prevention and preparedness of disaster.

v. Feed and Fodder arrangement

Sufficient care must be taken to sensitize the farmers to protect their feed and

fodder much ahead of onset of monsoon. The small ruminants’ holders will be educated/

informed to collect sufficient amount of green leaves from edible plants for use during the

period of submergence at the earliest, after receipt of disaster warning.

The sources for procurement of feed / rice bran (Kunda) within the district and

nearest locations are to be identified, and the suppliers kept informed about the emergency

situation. At the time of requirement they will supply to the identified areas within the

shortest possible time. Pre arrangement for tie up with fodder supply units should be done.

vi. Water facility

During drought as most of the affected animals are subject to scarcity of water, tube

wells along with water vats are to be constructed at V.D. & L.Acs campus devoid of such

facilities and at common public places.

vii. Shifting of equipments:

A careful study co-relating the past incidences of Disaster helps to identify the

sensitive / highly sensitive areas vulnerable to Disaster. Essential medicines, vaccines and

equipments like Cryocans are to be shifted from VDs and LACs located in such areas to safer

places much before the rush of Flood water. Even the VDs and LACs coming under identified

low lying areas with a past history of flooding should be instructed to evacuate their

42

institutional belongings, mentioned earlier. Diesel generator set should be arranged for

storage depots of vaccines for backup power supply.

viii. Preparatory meeting

The preparatory meeting will be organised by CDVO with the help of Veterinary

Officers of the disaster prone villages and assess the situation.. Various reports relating to

disaster such as Daily Report, Loss and damage report, Cattle Feed Supply, Animal Health

Camp report and other reports as per the format prescribed will be discussed. All the field

staffs are oriented accordingly in this regard to avoid difficulty of reporting. A telephone

directory will be maintained at the District level by collecting the telephone nos. of Vets,

Para-Vets, PRI members, NGOs / youth clubs / societies, volunteers etc. to collect feedback

and plan the activities during the emergency. Similarly Block VAS will convene a meeting by

involving all the field staff. If required BDO, RI, OIC Police station and other agencies will be

invited to attend for better convergence. He proceeding of all the meetings will be submitted

to District Magistrate, Superintendant of Police and Directorate of AH&VS.

CDVO will attend the preparatory meeting organized by Dist Disaster Authority and

appraise the situation of Veterinary measures. He will also seek the assistance needed from

the district authority for effective response to disaster.

District Incident Response Team (IRT) will ensure availability of veterinary staff in disaster

affected area. If required IRT will seek assistance from State control room for deployment of

staff from nearby areas.

iv. Cattle Feed and Fodder arrangement:

The Chief District Veterinary Officer will collect and compile feed/ fodder requirement

as per the CRF norms and discuss with District Collector for bringing to the notice of the

SRC/ Directorate. District Collector will be appraised by CDVO about the amount of Cattle

Feed to be procured from OMFED/ other sources for distribution to different Disaster

affected areas as per CRF norms.

v. Formation of Mobile Teams:

45

A good no. of mobile veterinary teams are to be formed consisting of dedicated and

experienced technical workers with allotment of area of operation. The teams will be kept in

readiness having required stock of medicines and equipment to work in any adverse

situation. A telephone directory is maintained at the District level by collecting the telephone

nos. of Vets, Para-Vets, etc. of each mobile team to collect feedback. The District Collector

will be requested to provide the required number of vehicles for the movement of mobile

teams.

vi. Contingency Fund:

The CDVOs of highly disaster prone Districts should have a contingent fund to the

tune of Rs. 20,000/- per district to meet the expenses such as, for vehicle hiring in

emergency for transportation, carcass disposal, procurement of life saving medicine. They

will be allowed to spend up to Rs. 20,000 from DLRDS in case of any eventuality and

reimbursement will be done from SRC funds later on. Similarly, block VAS will be authorised

to spend Rs. 5000/- to meet any contingency expenses. They will spend the money as per

the advice of IRT. An amount of Rs.50.00 lakhs may be provided to the Directorate of A.H.

& V.S., Odisha from S.R.C. to meet the emergency expenditure on account of disaster

management, which will be recouped subsequently from normal SRC grant. Each CDVO may

be provided with contingency fund to meet such emergent situation of natural calamity in

district level at least in 8 flood prone districts.

vii. Staff Management:

During disaster, no staff should normally be allowed to proceed on leave. All the staff

must be sensitized and oriented perfectly to manage Disaster situations successfully.

Officers & staff who are deployed from other stations to work in disaster prone area on relief

duty should work for a maximum 7 days. Therefore, IRT at the State level will make

advance planning and ensure replacement of staff accordingly.

viii. Rescue of livestock:

Much before the rush of flood water to flood prone areas, the livestock holders of

cattle, buffalo, sheep, goat, pig etc are educated/ informed to let loose their domesticated

animals and birds instead tying/ caging at a particular point. In spite of that, if animals are

not shifted, necessary arrangements are to be made in consultation with the District

Collector for provision of life saving boats for rescue of marooned animals, transportation of

feed, medicine and vaccine. In case of any untoward situation, the matter is to be brought

to the notice of BDO/ Tahasildars/ Sub Collectors/ District Collectors seeking immediate

assistance by the LI/ VAS/ AVAS/ SDVO/ CDVO. Sincere efforts are to be made in this regard

by the department through NGOs , CBOs and animal welfare organisations to save the lives

of the livestock and poultry. The small ruminants like sheep and goat are carefully shifted to

temporary sheds located in higher elevations. Similarly, the poultry birds are shifted with the

help of bamboo cages to temporary pen.

ix. Shelter of the livestock:

46

Temporary sheds are arranged with the help of District Collectors/ NGOs/ SPCA/

Animal Welfare Organizations working on disaster management for housing of destitute

animals. Separate arrangements are made to house cattle, buffalo, sheep, goat, pig and

poultry in order to maintain peck order and to avoid unnecessary competition for survival.

Planning for these activities should take place on a regular basis every year prior to flood

season at village level.

x. Provision/ distribution of Feed & Fodder:

During Disaster, the affected livestock and poultry are fed with feed and fodder

either from the established bank stated earlier or from the relief source. In order to bring

down the losses of lives arising due to non-availability of feed, a proper distribution

schedule is prepared and followed as per the need of the situation. Much attention is paid

for proper and timely distribution of feed and fodder to the needy animals. Sufficient

amount of fodder and green leaves are arranged for feeding sheep and goat. The backyard

poultry birds are supplemented with crushed maize, rice bran & wheat bran. The stray dogs

are to be fed with bread and biscuits. A good coordination with block relief team is solicited

for transport of animal and poultry feeds along with relief material of revenue department.

The distribution of animal and poultry feed is made jointly by staff of Panchyat Raj

department and veterinary department.

xi. Arrangement for drinking water for animals:

All the affected livestock and poultry should have an access to clean drinking water.

Arrangements are required to be made in this regard with the help of concerned

Government functionaries of the Districts. The available water may be chlorinated if required

with help of Halogen Tablet prior to drinking by livestock and poultry.

xii. Maintenance of Sanitation:

Adequate attention is to be paid to disinfect the premises of temporary sheds with

the help of bleaching powder, phenol, carbolic acid etc. In no case the carcass/ cadaver

should come in contact with healthy animals rehabilitated in sheds. Arrangements should be

made accordingly.

Post Disaster:

i. De-worming:

Immediately after disaster, the animals like cattle, buffalo, sheep, goat, pig, dog and

poultry need to be de-wormed with suitable broad spectrum anthelmentics. This will enable

the animals to regain proper health.

ii. Treatment of sick animals:

47

The affected injured / sick animals and birds are to be treated as immediately as

possible as per the requirement. The existing inventory of medicines is to be utilised. Once

flood recedes, the field staff/veterinary teams formed will visit all the approachable villages

and take up treatment of injured and ailing animals. The veterinary teams will conduct

preventive vaccinations against contagious diseases in the area.

iii. Disease Surveillance: The Disease Surveillance Team comprising of experts from ADRI, CIL,SVL and DDL

will visit regularly to the Disaster affected areas to make active surveillance about any

disease occurrence. The Disease Surveillance Team will be responsible for collection of

sample in war footed basis, laboratory confirmation of samples and take steps for prompt

disease diagnosis to minimise the spread of infection.

iv. Disposal of Carcass: Municipalities/Gram Panchayats/BDOs to be given responsibility for removing animals

likely to become health hazards. Necessary arrangement should be made for prompt and

easy disposal of carcasses during the Disaster and Post-Disaster period. The veterinary

teams will advise the local administration i.e. PanchayatRaj bodies and revenue officials to

take up prompt disposal of carcasses to prevent epidemics.

The local LI should keep all the records of dead livestock if any in his/her jurisdiction

with all relevant information (age, colour, sex, and preferably owners name & address)

before burial. Under no circumstances, Carcass Disposal Team (CDT) engaged either by the

revenue authorities, NGO or by Urban body should bury or dispose the dead livestock

without the consent of local LI to facilitate compensation measures if Govt. Desires.

v. Loss and Damage Assessment:

A joint verification by R.I., L.I. and Local Sarpanch will assess the real loss of

livestock / shed / pen etc. Local Tahasildar will distribute the compensation as per S.R.C.

code. The local LI may come across some complaints regarding loss of livestock may be due

to heavy water current and therefore, the carcass may not be traceable. In such cases a

missing/lost profile may be maintained and a committee headed by local LI with two of the

following members should certify such incidents and forward it to proper quarters for

consideration of Ex-gratia compensation if any.

i. Local PRI member

ii. Revenue Inspector

iii. Panchayat Executive Officer

iv. MPCS Secretary.

The Livestock Inspector will accompany the local damage assessment committee for

assessment of loss of livestock and birds. The livestock inspector will also report the damage

to the departmental infrastructure due to disaster. The concerned VAS will compile the

48

information and send to SDVO. The compiled information will be sent to CDVO and the

District wise compiled report will be sent to Directorate.

vi. Preparation of Contingent Plan: The CDVO will prepare a contingent plan for their district for reconstruction and

rehabilitation.

Relief

a. Preparation of contingency action plan covering immediate/permanent relief to the

affected will be taken up by the district administration.

b. Consult the district Agriculture Department to propose fodder yielding /fodder crops

in their alternate contingency plans.

c. Advise the PR Bodies to provide safe drinking water to the livestock of affected areas

by way of constructing water troughs

Veterinary Services:

a. Exemption of User Fees for vaccination, treatment of animals at least for one month

in the affected area in case of Disaster notified by the State (Flood, Cyclone, Drought

etc. and exemption of user fees for 7 days for the Disaster notified by District.

b. Common veterinary medicine (List is given in annexure) will be provided at VD and

LACs for 1 month post disaster.

c. Animal Health Camps every month in a cluster for 3 months ( 5-6 villages and maxm.

3000 animals in one cluster)

Infrastructure

It includes veterinary dispensary, Livestock Aid Centre, District Diagnostic

Laboratory, Poultry hatcheries and Livestock breeding farms. There are chances of damage

during disaster such as Flood, Cyclone, earthquake etc. Damaged buildings should be

assessed and the report is to be sent to SRC for adequate funding needed for repair and

construction of Veterinary institutions (Veterinary Dispensary, Livestock Aid Centres, Milk

Producer’s Cooperative Societies, milk processing plants etc.) for quick recovery and

restoration of veterinary services in rural area. The equipments which are coming under the

category of lost/damaged may be replaced to restore uninterrupted service.

Compensation disbursement

After proper assessment about loss/death of livestock the compensation as per the

CRF norms need to be disbursed promptly to the farmers.

Livelihood activities

49

In the event of a disaster, Livestock population is reduced through death, distress

sales, and lost. Due to stress, abortion, lamb & kid mortality and reduction in breeding

capacity is observed. Back yard poultry and small poultry farms are also affected. Both

standing crops and stores of livestock feed were also destroyed and grazing land is affected.

Animal Husbandry based livelihood programs are a priority in some areas. Livelihood

assistance as per the need of the people should be provided for small scale

dairy/goat/poultry farming. Participation of people in decision making in recovery

programme is important. Access to capital for people to start small and medium businesses

is necessary as most of the population survives on extremely limited cash flow. The bank

loan at a low rate of interest with flexible borrowing terms and conditions to stimulate small

businesses is required.

Farmers in rural areas establish small livestock unit farms with the assistance of bank

loan under different schemes such as DEDS, KSK, PMRY etc. If such farms get affected due

to impact of disaster, the families get trapped in the vicious cycle of poverty.

Loan waiving measures or moratorium period for repayment could act as a safety net

to stop further descending down, rather ease the farmers from the disasters and inculcate

courage to cope up.

50
