Theoretical aspects of veterinary and environmental regulation of animal husbandry and ways to improve them on the example of the Novosibirsk region

Animal husbandry is one of the most important branches of the agro-industrial complex of the Novosibirsk region, which, due to the specifics of its activities, is closely related to veterinary medicine and ecology. In modern conditions of animal husbandry, issues of veterinary and environmental regulation are of great importance, since they ensure the protection of animal health, protect the environment and allow the rational use of animal waste products in agricultural production. Veterinary regulation of animal husbandry is a set of legal norms that cover the activities of veterinary specialists and other persons related to animal husbandry, processing, sale, and transportation of animal products. The purpose of such regulation is to protect animals from diseases, produce veterinary–safe livestock products, and protect the population from diseases common to humans and animals. Veterinary regulation in the Russian Federation is regulated, in particular, by the Law of the Russian Federation “On Veterinary Medicine” and other regulatory acts, including government acts and documents issued by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation and the Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance. Animal husbandry, like any other branch of the economy, has a certain harmful effect on the environment. The unsystematic development of this industry affects the depletion of land, water resources and biological diversity. The demand for livestock products is growing every year, so it is important in the industry to reduce the negative impact of production on the environment and effectively use natural resources. In addition, the maximum use of advanced technologies in animal husbandry would help reduce the harm that this industry causes to the environment. Environmental regulation of animal husbandry is aimed at protecting the environment from the negative effects of agricultural production, including livestock farms and complexes. It is important to note that the legal regulation of the impact of livestock enterprises on the environment has not yet been formed, as industrial livestock production has not achieved a balance between social, economic and environmental problems.
