This study was conducted to find out the relationship among different aspects
of cattle fattening and use of anabolic steroids and feed additives. The data
were collected through an interview schedule from 65 respondents of 4 upazila/
thana (Mohammadpur, Keraniganj, Jatrabari and Mirpur Thana) of Dhaka city
who were involved in cattle fattening. Parameters were studied in relation to
socio-economic conditions of farmers and use of anabolic steroids and feed
additives and their effects on animals and environment. In this study 80.0%
farmers' were involved in others occupation, followed by 17.0% in livestock
business. About 65.0% respondents had higher education, 20.0% had higher
secondary education, 12.0% obtained secondary education and the rest of them
were primary education. Irrespective of literacy only 6.0% of the farmer had
training on cattle fattening. Results showed that about 92.0% respondents used
anabolic steroids for the duration of 3 to 6 months long cattle fattening
(P<0.001) program. The chi-square value of annual income indicates the higher
of annual income that the uses of anabolic steroids have increased. The
significant (P<0.01) association was observed in case of anabolic steroids and
source of money, annual income, number of cattle fattening, breeds, fattening
period, starting and finishing age. About 95.0% respondents used feed
additives for cattle fattening from own resources (P<0.001) and most of cattle
fattened for 3 to 6 months (P<0.01). The result demonstrated that respondents
of high annual income used more anabolic steroid and feed additives as a
growth promoter for cattle fattening. |
