a. Integrated Soil Fertility Management
Project Kamdhenu
Inspired by the ‘celestial wish cow’, Kamdhenu, who could give her owner whatever he desired, this initiative aims to promote collective action on natural, sustainable, and organic agricultural practices while ensuring care for abandoned unproductive cattle.
There are several reasons for abandoning unproductive cattle in India, ranging from neglect of the indigenous cattle varieties to moving to mechanised farming to excessive usage of synthetic fertilizers vs natural manure-based fertilizers.
