Distribution of goats to women members of Animal Husbandry Users Group under Livelihood Promotion Project

Goats were distributed to the women members of Animal Husbandry Users Group under the Livelihood Promotion Project by Gramonnati Sansthan, Mahoba, Bundelkhand (Uttar Pradesh). In which our organization "Bundelkhand Natural's" supplied goats to Gramonnati Sansthan Mahoba (Uttar Pradesh) as per their demand for distribution.

Gramonnati Sansthan is determined to improve the livelihood of women farmers and is continuously working towards its objective at the grassroots level. Respected Shri Rudra Pratap Mishra, Program Advisor of Gramonnati Sanstha, Respected Shri J. for providing us this opportunity of service. Many thanks to P. Yadav ji and his entire team.

Looking at the immense possibilities of goat rearing in Bundelkhand region, I not only have hope but have full faith that goat rearing will prove to be very beneficial for all the farmer sisters. Along with providing high quality nutrition to the family through goats - goat milk and natural goat lean manure for the farm land, it will also prove helpful in ensuring regular and regular increase in income.

Since ancient times, humans had started goat rearing along with farming. Due to the ease of goat rearing, it has been associated with landless, small, marginal and agricultural labourers, that is why our *Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi had called it "poor man's cow". The geographical conditions, climate and environment of Bundelkhand are very favorable and best for goats. Due to which the maintenance and rearing of goats can be done very easily in our area. At present, in most of the areas, goats are reared mainly for meat and leather and not for milk and other products.

Marginal farmer brothers, sisters and unemployed brothers are requested to include goat rearing along with farming.
