An Integrated Farming System (IFS) is a resource-efficient, location-adapted agricultural model that combines two or more complementary enterprises — e.g., crops, livestock, aquaculture, agroforestry, horticulture, and on-farm processing — to optimize resource use, diversify income, reduce risk, and improve ecological sustainability. integrated farming system model

Animals convert crop residues (straw, husks) into high-value protein (milk, meat, eggs) and manure. A robust IFS model is modular

Here is a working model suitable for tropical/subtropical regions (e.g., India, Southeast Asia, Africa): Animals convert crop residues (straw
