These cows provide alternative income opportunities for the families. To date, we have provided 375 families with cows and calves along with educating them with scientific cattle management practices.

Saving with sustainable solutions
‘I used to earn a meagre income by working in fields, growing seasonal crops. After I was given cows, I could sell around eight litres of milk daily. Additionally, we were also supported with fodder cultivation. My cows are now a stable source of income,’ shares Kusha Majhi, from Dangarpara village of Orissa.
