Desi Cows
The heritage of Desi Cows
India earlier had been always one of Richest countries both Health & Wealth wise. However, during 1960-1970s, the need of Milk rose quite substantially. This made way to import cows from other countries for e.g. HF & Jersey Cows. These are not our Native breeds & yield A1 Milk. In turn, Our Native Breeds started slowly to vanish out of our Indian Subcontinent. Few Desi breeds did sustain this Transition & are still the best cows from a Farmer point of View for e.g. Gir & hallikar Breed.
We at Vasundhare started to encourage Farmers to go for Desi cows as the maintenance would be less compared to Hybrid cows. That was when we started to supply A2 milk directly from farmers to end Consumer. Thus encouraging various go shalas to go for Desi cows.
