With lots of sound on cow protection and anti-beef campaign, I thought I should write something on the economic aspect of native cows which are at the central focus of this anti-cow slaughter campaign.
There are two types of cow species in the world, viz,
1) Bos Indicus
and
2) Bos Taurus
1) Gives A2 Type of milk – which is the not having any milk allergy related reactions associated with it.
2) Has a longer tail – helping in keeping the cow clean of mosquitoes and flies.
3) Has the ability to shake its skin at any particular place – this is effective in keeping itself clean of flies and mosquitoes.
4) Secretes an oily substance all through out its body to keep itself clean.
5) Has sweat glands in the body – this helps to adapt to changing climatic conditions.
6) Its hoofs are straight and split – there by helping the animal move about in rocky soil.
7) Its udder is tightly closed and helps avoid infection.
8) Its uterus is closed and helps in keeping off urinary infections.
9) Highly disease resistant
10) Can survive severe draughts and shortages of fodder and water.
11) Can withstand the monsoon climate.
12) Is highly intelligent and doesn’t soil itself with dung and urine, makes emotional ties with owners.
13) Has a highly developed vocal cord.
14) Uses very less water for drinking and needs very less or no cleaning.
The Bos Taurus variety has the following characteristics:
1) Gives A1 type of milk – which has milk allergy characteristics.
2) Has shorter tail – hence could not keep out from mosquitoes and flies.
3) Doesn’t have sweat glands and hence cannot tolerate hotter climates
4) Its hoof is not straight and split and hence not suitable for moving about – suitable only for keeping inside.
5) Its udders are not tightly closed and hence prone to infection.
6) Its uterus is not closed and hence prone to urinary infections.
7) Prone to diseases.
8) Cannot survive shortage of fodder and water and incapable of living in draught.
9) Cannot withstand the sound of rain and falls sick.
10) Is not intelligent enough and soils itself with its dung and urine and needs more water to clean it regularly. Doesn’t have any emotional intelligence to bond with owners.
11) Doesn’t have a developed vocal cord.
12) Uses lot of water for drinking and needs regular cleaning.
The above said 11 points, along with the ability for the native Indian cows to live with minimal fodder and water means that its less expensive maintenance wise to keep the native cows for the farmers.
More over, Subhash Palekar’s research have found that 1KG dung from native cows have so much good soil enhancing bacteria that can help in cultivation of close to 50 acres. So, if a farmer has 5 acres or less, he can do agriculture with only one native Indian cow.
Allan Savory of South Africa had experimented and found that grazing cattle are the only way through which desertification could be reversed.
Apart from this, its economical for a middle class or poor farmer to keep native Indian cows.
Their by products like cow dung and cow urine are used in the following preparation.
1) Panchaghavya – product made from 5 products derived from cows ( cow dung, cow urine, cow milk, curd and ghee) – this is useful as plant growth promoter and as health supplement for humans.
2) Cow dung is a best natural anti-septic and anti microbial mix which is spread inside the home and outside the traditional Indian home to keep the place hygienic. Since we have moved to 'Modern' ways of living, we must explore how good we could use the studies on cow dung to prepare better anti-septic and anti microbial mixes.
3) Cow dung and cow horns are used in bio dynamic and zero budget farming.
4) Cow dung is a source of fuel for the rural population.
5) The methane from cow dung can be used as the best fuel alternative for petrol and natural gas.
A cow takes close to 300 days to conceive and give birth to a calf – which is more or less similar to the gestation days of a human mother.
Through out its life time, a native Indian cow gives 8 to 10 calves and in some times even 12 calves.
It’s the best machine in the whole world which can convert the left over from the food to pure milk.
All the life form in this world are carbon based, native Indian cows are the only machines which can translate this carbon as life form into nitrates in the cycle quickly and easily.
Apart from this, there are 36 major varieties of Indigenous native cows and many sub-varieties of these cows.
Our Indians and govt. of India are not concerned in improving the stock of these native Indian cows, but its greatness is understood by the cattle owners of Americas.
Today, native Indian cow varieties like the Sindhi and Shahiwal are breaking records in milk production.
The Brahman cows variety which is developed by the Indian breeds of cows like Ongole and Nellore variety are now developed and bred in large numbers. These are now sold to all other countries for premier prizes.
Our government can take this distinct advantage in genetic research and develop indigenous variety of cows for better milk yielding.
With Information Technology in the decline the government needs to focus on investing its youth power as well as in generating wealth without begging other countries to invest.
This can be done by investing in the following areas:
1) Genetic research and patenting the native Indian cow varieties.
2) Research and produce the medicines derived from panchaghavya for generic medicines.
3) Use the municipal bodies to tie up with banks in setting up and functioning community cow sheds for old age cows and bulls and use the dung for generating bio-gas.
4) Use the cow dung in zero budget farming and compost making for improving agriculture.
A cow alive is more worth than eating beef and filling the toilet, it’s the future of the nation as a whole and the very economy that’s in question due to the mass killing of the native Indian cow varieties.
It takes just a moment for killing a cow, but it takes 300 days for a cow to give another calf and the number of native Indian cows is decreasing fast – thanks to slaughter houses and cross breeding by the ill sighted approaches of people like Vargeese Kurian of AMUL fame.
If we dont take action at war footing now, it will be too late and we will be at the mercy of foreign cattle breeders, who will be owning the genetic patent of our native Indian cows and demanding high ransom and IPR prices to sell our own cows back to us. It will be a heavy price for us.
So, what can you do as an average citizen for this cause:
1) Spread the news about native Indian cows.
2) Stop using leather products.
3) Stop eating beef.
4) Urge government or come up with a plan with the municipal bodies for community cow sheds and bio gas plants.
These and other ideas in keeping the cow alive will fetch us more wealth and make our India a green and great India.

Brazil is the biggest exporter of Indian breeds of cows. Gir cow now records over 62 litres/day in Brazil
