Introduction:
Livestock play a crucial role in the global economy, providing essential resources such as meat, milk, and wool. However, livestock are constantly faced with various pathogens that can compromise their health and productivity. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in utilizing biotechnological strategies to enhance livestock immunity and reduce the reliance on conventional methods such as antibiotics and vaccines. This thesis aims to explore the various biotechnological approaches that can be used to improve livestock immunity and ultimately increase their resistance to diseases.

Thesis Overview:
Livestock production is a critical component of the global agricultural industry, providing a vital source of food and income for millions of people worldwide. However, livestock are constantly exposed to a wide range of pathogens that can have detrimental effects on their health and productivity. Traditional methods of disease prevention and control, such as vaccines and antibiotics, have been effective to some extent but are facing increasing challenges due to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and evolving pathogens.
Biotechnological strategies offer a promising alternative for enhancing livestock immunity and reducing the reliance on conventional methods. This thesis aims to explore the various biotechnological approaches that can be used to improve livestock immunity, with a focus on genetic engineering, probiotics, immunomodulation, nanotechnology, RNA interference, and epigenetics. By enhancing the innate and adaptive immune responses of livestock, these biotechnological interventions have the potential to increase their resistance to diseases and improve overall health and productivity.
The thesis will begin with an introduction that provides background information on the topic, identifies the research problem, outlines the objectives, and highlights the significance of the study. The literature review will examine the current state of knowledge on livestock immunity and biotechnological strategies for enhancing it. The research methodology section will detail the design, data collection, and analysis methods used in the study.
The discussion of findings chapter will present the results of the research and analyze the effectiveness of biotechnological interventions in enhancing livestock immunity. Finally, the conclusion and summary chapter will summarize the key findings, discuss their implications, and provide recommendations for future research in this area. Overall, this thesis aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on biotechnological strategies for enhancing livestock immunity and ultimately improving the health and well-being of livestock populations.
