Anantapur Holds Milk Yield Competitions

In Anantapur, a big milk competition called Anantha Pala Dhaara is happening.

Farmers brought their cows and buffaloes to see who can produce the most milk.

There were three categories: crossbred cows, buffaloes, and indigenous cows.

One crossbred cow gave 14.06 kg of milk, a buffalo gave 12.30 kg, and an indigenous cow gave 5.44 kg.

The competition is very fair, with veterinarians checking the animals and measuring the milk carefully.

The winners will be announced on January 9, and they will get prizes.

The dairy sector is important for rural economies, providing income and jobs, especially for women and small farmers.
