Description
Smallholder crop production and plantation systems in south-east Asia provide great opportunities for the expansion of the livestock industry in the region. Weeds and crop residues associated with crop cultivation are utilised efficiently with integration of fodder species in cropping systems. Native vegetation and introduced forage species under plantation support and increase animal production, respectively. Some socioeconomic factors and policies affecting utilisation of grasslands and plantations in relation to smallholder productions are discussed.
