Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav has said that self-reliant cowsheds can make a significant contribution to the economy of the state. Cowsheds can become prosperous by earning money from waste like cow dung, cow urine etc. Therefore, to develop self-reliant cowsheds, a system should be developed for the sale of products made from cow urine and cow dung along with milk products in cowsheds. Along with this, the space available in cowsheds should also be used for producing electricity from solar energy.

Cow rearing of indigenous breeds should be encouraged according to the local environment in different regions of the state. Religious institutions and donors should be involved in the management of cowsheds. The number of veterinarians is less in proportion to the livestock available in the state. For better management of cattle and increase in milk production, it is necessary to increase the number of veterinarians. Necessary steps should be taken in this direction.

Chief Minister Dr. Yadav gave these instructions in the meeting of Madhya Pradesh Gausamvardhan Board held in the Ministry. Minister of State for Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development Lakhan Patel, Chief Secretary Anurag Jain and other officials were present in the meeting.
