Livestock management involves managing farm animals and supervising farm workers. Livestock management requires knowledge of animal science and animal husbandry, as well as good business sense. Many livestock managers must also keep financial records for their operations. Depending on the size of the farm, managers may perform some physical tasks like operating and maintaining machinery, as well as personally attending to the livestock. Dairy farms,cattle ranches, swine operations, and poultry farms all require effective livestock management to be successful and profitable.
