Cattle rearing transforms rural livelihoods in Bhupalpally

Cattle rearing transforms rural livelihoods in Bhupalpally

In the forest villages of Bhupalpally district, farmers are now raising more cattle, goats, and other animals instead of just growing crops.

This change is happening because many families don't have much land, and raising animals provides a steady income.

The animals are kept in open fields, and their dung is used as natural fertilizer, which helps the crops grow better.

The government has been helping with veterinary services, but the farmers want more support, like being allowed to graze animals in some forest areas and building shelters to protect them from wild animals.

This shift has also created jobs for women and improved the lives of many families in the village.
