Following the introduction of the <strong>Provincial Council System in 1987<\/strong>, the department took on a new dimension under the Provincial Ministry of Agriculture. After the formal establishment of Provincial Councils in 1988, the field-level service activities were officially devolved to the <strong>Provincial Departments of Animal Production and Health<\/strong>. Today, 332 Divisional Veterinary Offices have been established across the island, serving as the primary operational units of the department.<\/p><p><strong>Evolution in the North Central Province <\/strong><\/p><p>The North Central Province, comprising the Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa districts, holds a proud heritage where ancient kings ensured that not a single drop of rain was wasted before reaching the sea, thereby flourishing the agricultural way of life.<\/p><p>At its inception, the department covered the entire North Central Province with only <strong>11 Veterinary Offices<\/strong>, a staff of 75 (including 11 Veterinary Officers and 30 Livestock Development Officers). In contrast, the department has significantly expanded to meet modern demands:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Present Staff Strength:<\/strong> 276 dedicated personnel.<\/li><li><strong>Current Coverage:<\/strong> 22 Veterinary Divisions in the Anuradhapura District and 07 Veterinary Divisions in the Polonnaruwa District.<\/li><li><strong>Infrastructure:<\/strong> In 1998, an independent Training Center and Applied Research Institute were established alongside the <strong>Thirappane Livestock Development Farm<\/strong> to serve the province.<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Impact and Progress<\/strong><\/p><p>The North Central Province's contribution to the national economy through livestock development has seen exponential growth. In <strong>1990<\/strong>, the department performed approximately <strong>400 artificial inseminations (AI)<\/strong>; today, that number has reached nearly 3<strong>0,000<\/strong> annually. Furthermore, the province currently contributes approximately 75<strong>\u00a0million liters of milk per year<\/strong> to the national local milk production.<\/p><p>Despite numerous challenges, the North Central Provincial Department of Animal Production and Health continues to play a monumental role in the country\u2019s development process, driving the livestock sector toward a prosperous future.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"cz_title_line
