Cattle rearing has been a traditional livelihood in India and is closely related to the agricultural economy. Since December 2014, PM Narendra Modi in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmer Welfare has initiated the Rashtriya Gokul Mission plan for the development and preservation of native bovine species. For the rural farmers in the country, this scheme is important for increasing milk production and productivity of bovines in order to meet the growing demand for milk.
