Rearing rabbits for profit (the video is loading, may take long. Please bear with us...)

Rearing and breeding of angora rabbits is proving to be a lucrative prospect for Indian villagers in Uttarakhand. Declining population of sheep in the region forced the villagers to turn to angora rabbit breeding, when the state rural development ministry launched the Angora wool scheme in Uttarakhand in March 2002, in collaboration with the federal government. HIFEED Agro services is the nodal organisation of the government of Uttarakhand.
