USDA Animal Husbandry Division Photographs. Special Collections, USDA National Agricultural Library.
Although the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) had recognized animal husbandry as a unique sector in 1901, it was not until 1910 that the Animal Husbandry Division was established under the Bureau of Animal Industry (BAI). The research performed in the division focused on the breeding and feeding of animals important to agricultural and military activities, and food production. Cattle, horses, and poultry production were key research subjects. Soon after its establishment, the Animal Husbandry Division moved its research facilities to the new research center in Beltsville, Maryland. It remained directly under the BAI until the formation of the Agricultural Research Service, which abolished the BAI and reassigned its functions. The responsibilities of the former Animal Husbandry Division are now handled by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services.
