Farmers may be allowed to buy 20 animals

Kamdhenu scheme which was started with an objective to boost milk production and make Goa self-reliant has not been as successive as it should have been. But the State Government has not given up its hope to have "milk revolution' in the State. It is contemplating to expand the scope of the Kamdhenu scheme to increase milk production which is less than 1 lakh liter a day. "We are thinking of allowing purchase of 20 animals instead of only ten animals allowed now but nothing has been finalised as yet,' said an Animal Husbandry official.
