Kamal Pimoli/Srinagar Garhwal.The milk of Kamdhenu ‘Badri Cow’ of the hilly areas of Uttarakhand is no less than nectar. The elements found in it are also effective in fighting diseases like cancer. This is the reason why its milk costs more. Whereas Badri Cow Ghee is sold for up to five thousand rupees per kg. Vice Chancellor of Govind Ballabh Pant Agricultural University, Dr. Manmohan Singh Chauhan said that in Uttarakhand, Badri cow is considered a good cow from the point of view of animal husbandry. If farmers produce milk from Badri cow, they can earn good profits. Giving information, Dr. Chauhan says that when he was posted as Director in NDRI, Karnal, during his research he found that the milk of Badri cow is actually no less than nectar.
He said that such a compound is found in its milk, which is less found in the milk of other cows. CLA compound is found most in the milk of Badri cow, which reduces the risk of diseases ranging from cancer to cholesterol and blood pressure. If someone continuously consumes the milk of Badri cow, he gets the benefit of its nutrients. He says that his effort is to divert people towards animal husbandry business and motivate them to produce milk from Badri cow and sell it.
