HI

HF and Jersey are the exotic breeds of cow which yield high. The breeds of buffalo include MUrrah, Surti, Jaffarabadi. Cost depends on the age of the cow or buffalo you intend to buy. YOu can get this information at the animal husbandry department.
Since you have 10 acres of land why dont to start integrated farming or you can cultivate the fodder for your dairy in the same piece of land.
