Hello,
I am planning to start a dairy farm with 50 animals near Hyderabad. I am debating very hard on whether to go with cows or buffaloes. My parents do not want cows since many farmers in our area brought cows from punjab, Haryana for high prices and incurred huge loss. I have few question (and many more to come)
1. Cow vs Buffallo (Which one?) - What is the price of good milk yielding Murrah and Cow?
2. Do Murrah buffaloes really give 10+ litres of milk?
3. How to manage cows so that I do not have more dry cows at any period of time
I have many more questions to come
I want to bring these animals in batches. I am inclining towards free-stall dairy shed (I do believe in animals doing there things). Can anyone share the project report or dairy handbook if you have one?
I am looking at experienced farmers and advisers at agricultureinformation for valuable information.
Thanks in advance
