This is an important approach for Chinese agriculture, especially Chinese livestock husbandry, to develop and cultivate their human resources. To improve the training effect of veterinary medicine new-type professional farmers, it is necessary for universities and colleges to adopt the intensive organization management of learners, optimization and combination of the faculty, functionalization of training content, diversification of training methods and other teaching strategies. By doing so, it can also contribute to the realization of the ambitious goal of promoting sound and fast development of livestock husbandry in China or even the whole Asian Region at large.
