Description
Rabbit farming is the agricultural practice of raising, raising and slaughtering domestic rabbits, usually for their meat, fur or wool. Rabbit husbandry is the raising of rabbits for the use of meat and rabbit products. The concept comes from the Latin word cuniculus (“rabbit”) and cultura (of something). Rabbit production is, therefore, the systematic breeding and reproduction of these animals. Rabbit meat is part of the group known as white meat because its color is less red than that of beef. It is a lean meat with little fat. Rabbit farm production may also be intended for marketing rabbits as pets (CIPA, 2016).
