best cow for home

For a home dairy, Sahiwal is the safest choice. It gives good milk, handles Indian heat well, and stays easier to manage than high-yield exotic cows. Gir and Jersey cross are also good if you want decent milk with better adaptability. If you want fifteen litres or more every day, one cow will not stay at peak all year; you will need two cows with staggered calvings. When buying, milk her in front of you, do a CMT test on all four quarters, check the lactation month, and take a Pashumitra or vet if the price is above fifty thousand rupees.
