PRODUCTION AND PROMOTION OF ORGANIC AND BIO FERTILISERS WITH SPECIAL FOCUS ON IMPROVING ECONOMIC VIABILITY OF GAUSHALAS

Summary

India faces challenges with the economic viability of Gaushalas (cow shelters) and the increasing problem of stray cattle, alongside a need to transition to sustainable agriculture away from chemical fertilizers. NITI Aayog formed a task force to propose solutions, focusing on making Gaushalas self-sustaining by promoting the production of organic and bio-fertilisers and bio-energy from cattle waste. The report offers recommendations for policy interventions, public-private partnerships, and market avenues for cow products to achieve this, with many initiatives still in the planned stage.
