  abstract: When studying China's feedgrain demand and supply, one of the major challenges is related to the diversity and complexity of animal raising practices. Broadly, there are three major animal raising practices in China: feedlot, specialised animal raising household, and traditional very small-scale backyard animal raising. The latter two animal raising practices still together occupy an important share. An understanding of household animal raising practice is therefore essential to study China's feedgrain demand and supply and this can be best done through field surveys. In this paper, we report the findings from a rural household survey in a northeast province of China. The survey was specially designed to examine issues related to farm household animal raising, such as the sources of feed, the use of bought feed and feed conversion ratios. The implications of the findings on policy issues are discussed.
