4. GOSHALA – THE VERY IDEA

inbreeding
• Scarcity of pure Indian cow based products for Hindu rituals
• Missing cattle natural grazing
• Aged cattle being treated inhumanely; Stray cattle
• Join the greater cause of spreading the Indian breeds/methods by practice
• Adulterated milk and nutrition less polluted food for children
• Extreme commoditization
5. GOSHALA – THE VERY IDEA

• Scrambled agricultural methods
• Adulterated food, Hybrid in everything eradicating natural and native breeds
• Agriculture – The alternative sources of income
• Autism, Cancer, Immunity
• Indian Cattle’s contribution to Agriculture, Healthy living & An all in all solution
6. MOTIVE OF THIS GOSHALA
• The establishment to serve breeding of diminishing Indian breed cattle that are
specifically low on yield. Ex: Punganur, Bargur, Malnad Gidda, Vechur, Kasargod
etc., and help increasing their numbers
• Chittoor Dt being a big milk supplier to Chennai and Bangalore, greatly lacks
Indian cattle and loosing its native breeds.
• Bring out the importance of educated people’s efforts in opting nonconventional
job/business opportunities
7. IMMEDIATE PLAN
• Breed Punganur cattle with the existing short breed local cattle
• Breed good milking Indian cattle, most likely Shaiwal in the initial stages to make
this goshala self sustainable. Punganur cattle by itself cant drive this initiative into
profits due to low lactation.
• Gather Indian breeding/feeding/grazing methods and benefits. Bring out the
abstract and do a comparative study of this with other current western methods.
• Land pooling, cattle shed construction, cattle feed supply chain

them
• Nature, animals and Children
10. WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT OUR CATTLE
