| Abstract: | This
study aims to document folk medicinal knowledge of plants used for the
treatment of livestock in the Sitapur district of Uttar Pradesh. Information on
these veterinary practices was gathered from June 2009 to April 2010 by
interviewing residents using the “Transect walks” method of the Participatory
Rural Appraisal (PRA) technique. The method was based on semi-structured
interviews and discussions with key research participants. A total of fifty-seven
medicinal formulas were recorded for use in the treatment of different
livestock diseases. These formulations are not reported in earlier published literature. |
