Indian Farming February 1947

1947

The country owes a debt of gratitude to the Council and the Animal Husbandry Wing and to the scientific and administrative officers of the provinces and the States who have striven to bring to the service of their country the results of their ripe experience in solving the complicated and difficult problems connected with animal husbandry. [...] The latter half of the month was marked by the revival of the activity of the monsoon over west coast of the peninsula and its extension up to Sind and the formation of two depressions in the north Bay and their movement inland. [...] It was in deference to this opinion and in the realization of the undesiability of multiplying the number of recognized breeds unnecessarily that I was asked to study the subject in the belief 'Ehat it might be possible to reconcile the opinion of the authorties on the subject and to open a common register for the breed. [...] It is not to be wondered at therefore that a variation exists in the type in every herd ; to the west the Sindhi influence is obvious to the east and south that of the Kankrej and to the north and east the effect of the Nagori blood is evident. [...] The colour of the skin is black except on the udder under the belly on the lower part of the dewlap and inside the ears where it is rich yellow.
