A young man who worked as a technician in Mumbai quit his job and started raising domestic cows in Kundapur.

Cow is described as the  mother who gives birth to all creatures. Even now, there is a shortage of native breed cows in our country. Cows developed in labs for high milk and meat are now everywhere. But in a village of Kundapur, a young man is spreading the importance of desi breed by rearing only desi cows. Cow has been worshiped since centuries in Indian ancient culture and is called Kamadhenu of Kali Yuga by celebrating the divine power in cow. But the irony is that without knowing the importance and divine power of Indigenous Cows, we are consuming white cows as milk. We are consuming the milk of foreign breeds of cows even though there are elements that are harmful to our health. This is the cause of many diseases in our body. Thus, this young man from Beejadi village of Kundapura taluk has written Success Story in order to find self-reliance along with good message by developing breeds of desi cows.

Kumar Kanchan, who worked as a software employee in a reputed company in Mumbai and ran various ventures in Chikmagalur, left all his ventures and today started Kapile Go Samraddi Trust in Bijadi village of Kundapur taluk of Udupi district.

Ambitious for the protection of indigenous cow breeds, he is rearing indigenous breeds of cows like Gir, Sahiwal, Rati, our Karnataka native, Malenadu Gidda. Visited Cow Science and Anusandhana Kendra, Nagpur, Maharashtra and other parts of the country and received training on production of panchgavya medicine along with protection of indigenous cow breeds.

In order to maintain the authenticity and quality of the milk of the cows, they are feeding the cows with the green plant and corn plant grown by themselves using organic manure without giving any kind of artificial food to the cows. They are making approximately 25 types of medicinal products from the milk, dung, urine, ghee, curd of domestic cows. 4 to 5 types of extract, milk and cow dung are used to make various types of soaps and pain oil from cow urine. They are also making panchagavya medicine for deadly diseases, cow phenol from cow urine, dishwashing soap from dung and mosquito repellent candles.

In general, local cow’s milk is being supplied daily on demand in Kundapur’s surroundings. They are giving detailed information about the importance of domestic cows and panchagavya medicine to the visitors from different parts of the country and the members of the association to their cow school. This ambitious project of his has been lauded by many.
