Journal of Rural Development, Vol. 30, No. (4) pp. 487 - 499NIRD, Hyderabad.STRUCTURAL, FUNCTIONAL ANDSITUATIONAL FACTORSINFLUENCING THE PRIVATISATIONOF VETERINARY SERVICES INANDHRA PRADESHM.Srinivasa Reddy* andSudhakar Rao B.**ABSTRACTThe veterinary services are not reaching the needy farmers at the right time inright form in the traditional extension system due to various reasons/drawbacks suchas lack of funds, high cost, dissatisfaction of the veterinarians over the administrativeand para staff, incentives, lack of software and hardware support etc. Privatisation ofveterinary services is one of the frontier areas, whose potential is unlimited in theAnimal Husbandry sector. An ex-post facto research design was used to analyse andcompare the structural and functional aspects of the operating agencies/organisations like state department of Animal Husbandry, private and semigovernmentorganisations and consultants involved in livestock development withreference to the identified services which influence the privatisation of veterinaryservices in Andhra Pradesh. The various issues pertaining to the situational factorsviz. policy support, input support, marketing support, industrial support, MNCintervention, export potentiality, institutional and organisational support wereanalysed, synthesised and discussed. The initiatives which will also influence thefeasibility of privatisation of veterinary services were discussed at appropriate places.IntroductionIn most of the developing countries thelivestock extension services have beentraditionally funded, managed and deliveredby the public sector and this public sectormonopoly came under a threat first in 1930’sas many started questioning the desirabilityof this situation on economic and efficiencygrounds when it became clear that thegovernment agencies are unable to providequality livestock health services (Anteneh,1984; De Haan and Nissen, 1980). The livestockpopulation has increased enormously and inthe recent past the government budgets havenot kept pace and government agencies havesuffered from lack of funds (Carney, 1998). Theconcerns being raised about the efficiency andeffectiveness of public sector veterinaryservices have led to search for an alternativemechanism of providing those services. Thus,the emphasis in recent years has been shiftedover to decentralisation, cost recovery,withdrawal from selected services andcontracting, encouraging private veterinarypractitioners for privatising the livestockextension services.* Associate Professor and Professor & Univ.Head (Retd), respectively, Department of Veterinary &A.H.Extension, College of Veterinary Science, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh.Part of Ph.D thesis of first author submitted to the Acharya N.G.Ranga Agricultural University,Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh.
