By Nyal Naturals
India, often hailed as the land of spirituality, wisdom, and sustainability, has always revered cows as sacred beings. The cow is not just an animal in our culture — she is a symbol of nourishment, purity, and ecological balance. At Nyal Naturals, our roots lie in traditional Indian values, and we stand firmly committed to the protection and preservation of indigenous cows.
In this blog, we explore the importance of saving cows, the threats they face, and how each of us can contribute — not just for their sake, but for our health, our soil, and our future.
🐄 The Role of the Cow in Indian Tradition
For thousands of years, the cow has been considered “Gau Mata” — the divine mother who provides life-sustaining resources to humanity. From spiritual rituals to daily sustenance, the cow’s presence is woven into the very fabric of Indian life.
Cows have long been central to:
- Ayurveda and Panchgavya: Cow-based medicines made from milk, ghee, urine, and dung.
- Organic Farming: Cow dung and urine are the core components of Jeevamrut, an organic fertilizer used by natural farmers.
- Rural Livelihoods: Milk and dairy products provide income and nutrition to millions of Indian households.
At Nyal Naturals, we use A2 milk from Gir cows raised lovingly in open pastures and fed organic fodder — not just to make high-quality products, but to preserve this sacred connection.

🚨 The Crisis Facing Indigenous Cows
Despite their significance, indigenous cow breeds are declining rapidly. India once had over 70 native cow breeds, but many are now on the brink of extinction due to:
- Commercial dairy practices favoring foreign high-yielding breeds
- Neglect of non-milking cows
- Urbanization and shrinking grazing lands
- Lack of awareness and policy support
The result? Reduced genetic diversity, increased dependency on chemical dairy systems, and lost ancient wisdom.
Saving cows isn’t just emotional — it’s an ecological and cultural necessity.
🌱 Cow-Based Organic Farming: A Sustainable Solution
Modern agriculture has led to soil depletion, chemical residues in food, and farmer distress. Indigenous cows hold the key to reversing this damage.
Their dung and urine are used in:
- Jeevamrut and Beejamrut: Natural bio-fertilizers that regenerate soil
- Cow dung logs: Sustainable fuel alternatives
- Panchgavya preparations: Organic immunity boosters and growth enhancers
By supporting cow-based farming, we build resilient ecosystems, improve nutrition, and reduce our carbon footprint.

🧬 Indigenous Cows vs Foreign Breeds: The A2 Factor
Gir, Sahiwal, Tharparkar — these native Indian breeds produce A2 milk, which is richer in nutrients and easier to digest than A1 milk from foreign breeds like Jersey or Holstein.
Scientific studies have shown that A2 milk:
- Is less inflammatory
- Supports gut health
- Contains higher levels of beta-casein protein
This is why we at Nyal Naturals focus solely on Bilona-made A2 Ghee — a product that respects both your body and the cow.

🕉 Panchgavya: The Cow’s Gift to Ayurveda
The ancient science of Ayurveda recognizes Panchgavya — five cow-derived elements (milk, ghee, curd, urine, and dung) — as healing for both the body and the land.
- Cow urine (Gomutra) is used in liver detox, diabetes control, and immunity boosters.
- Cow ghee is the gold standard in Ayurvedic preparations, especially for digestion and brain function.
- Cow dung ash is used in purification rituals and farming alike.
By protecting the cow, we preserve Ayurveda, which has treated Indian communities for over 5,000 years.

🌍 A Climate and Environmental Ally
Cows are climate warriors — but only when raised naturally. Unlike industrial cattle, free-grazing desi cows:
- Enrich the soil with microbial-rich dung
- Increase carbon sequestration through grazing cycles
- Prevent desertification of rural landscapes
Desi cows, when integrated into sustainable farming, help reverse climate change rather than contribute to it.
💡Did You Know?
A single desi cow produces enough dung in a year to fertilize 5 acres of land.

💚 What You Can Do to Save Our Cows
Saving cows is not the job of gau shalas alone. As consumers and citizens, we have the power to create change. Here’s how:
1. Support Cow-Based Products
Choose genuine A2 ghee, organic milk, and natural farming produce made with the help of desi cows.

Products made from foreign breed milk promote harmful practices and reduce demand for indigenous cows.
3. Promote Panchgavya
Incorporate cow urine distillates, ghee, and dung-based fertilizers into your home and garden.
4. Donate to Gaushalas
Support reputable shelters that care for elderly and abandoned cows.
5. Educate and Advocate
Spread awareness on social media, in schools, and communities about the importance of saving cows.

The cow is not just a symbol of India’s culture — she is the life-giving mother of our ecosystem. To protect her is to protect our food, our health, and our future.
