Combined climatic elements influence directly and indirectly the animal's health by influencing the provision of green (artificial pasture) and artificial feed sources (feed and concentrated feed). The rise in temperature above the natural limit leads to the destruction of large numbers of animal wealth and the lack of their production due to the thermal stress that sometimes leads to the destruction of livestock and the death of poultry, as it affects the reproductive capacity of many animals due to the lack of sexual desire and the sperm sperm for males, which caused a decrease in reproduction and is reflected This is due to the quantities of production due to their low numbers and Missan province. The temperatures are suitable for animal husbandry and have little effect on their health. Relative humidity reduces the quantities of animal production by creating an environmental atmosphere to embrace some animals, pathogens, insects, and parasites that infect livestock with many diseases leading to their destruction. Wind affects the process of harboring animals and the quality of building barns that protect them from the heat of the midday sun in the first place. Missan province is the studied model, as it was affected by the set of factors referred to, which led to a variation in the geographical distribution in most parts of the province.
