| contents | <p><span lang="EN-IN">Castration, also referred to as orchidectomy, is the removal of testicles in male animals. It is among the oldest and most practiced surgical procedures in livestock management. In ruminants castration is commonly performed for behavioral control, meat quality improvement, reproductive management, and easier handling.
