Goat milk is a boon for health
  • Goat milk is rich in protein, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals and adequate amounts of immunoglobulins which play an important role to maintain health and the immune system.
  • Goat milk has lower alpha casein content, equal to cupa casein and higher amount of beta-casein than cow’s milk. Reduced alpha casein in goat milk increases digestibility.
  • Goat milk is helpful in the treatment of stomach and intestinal diseases.
  • Goat milk is also considered to be good for treating allergies and cancer.
  • Goat milk contains high amounts of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA). CLA has been found to have an important role in the treatment of colorectal and breast cancer due to its anti-carcinogenic properties.
  • Goat milk is used as a medicine for the prevention and treatment of diseases like Dengue and Chikungunya.

Kishan Chandra of Dewas got bumper production from moong, Said thanks to Gramophone

Any farmer does farming so that he gets good profits from it and the two important things to keep in mind to get profit from farming are to ‘reduce the cost of farming’ and to ‘increase production’. Keeping these two points in mind, farmer Kishan Chandra Rathore of village Nemawar under Khategaon tehsil of Dewas district got bumper production from the moong crop last year. Kishan Ji also took help from Gramophone to achieve this bumper production.

Kishan Chandra Ji was associated with Gramophone two years back. Initially, he took some advice from Gramophone, but last year when he was going to cultivate moong, he cultivated half of his 10 acres of land as per Gramophone’s advice and the remaining half based on his past experiences. On the advice of Gramophone, Kishan Chandra Ji put Soil Samriddhi Kit in his fields and kept on consulting the experts from sowing to harvesting, which had an impact on production.

The production figures were surprised when the crop was harvested. In the five-acre field where Kishan Ji cultivated based on his experience, only 18 quintals of moong were produced and the cost was high, while on the advice of Gramophone, the five-acre field produced 25 quintals of moong and also the cost was quite less.

While the recommendation of Gramophone reduced the cost, it increased the production to 7 quintals. Kishan Ji shared the same experiences from last year with Team Gramophone and said that this year too, he will plant the moong crop in his entire 10-acre field on the advice of Gramophone.
