Abstract: Excerpts from the report Introduction: The recommendations in this bulletin are based largely on studies at the U.S. Rabbit Experiment Station formerly maintained at Fontana, Calif., by the Sheep and Fur Animal Research Branch, Animal Science Research Division, Agricultural Research Service. At this station, improved methods were developed for producing rabbits for meat, fur, and wool of fine quality, for insuring sanitary surroundings, and for preventing outbreaks of parasitic and other diseases. This handbook is being issued to help county agricultural agents, State colleges of agriculture, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture answer the many thousands of requests received each year from commercial and professional rabbit producers for information about rabbits.
