It became evident that quite huge quantities of animal-based by-products go to waste of are inefficiently utilized in the country.This also contributed to blemishing of the environment, loss in foreign exchange through such material resources going to waste and above all poor management and development of human skills to exploit the fuller utilization of such resources.
