Abstract

                                Grassland and cattle improvement go hand in hand especially if a herd of 50 animals or more is maintained. Young growing stock require plenty of exercise; if they are turned out to grass, they naturally get this. In a district like Hosur where rainfall is distributed over six months or so, where in some years showers are received from April to November, concentrates can be reduced considerably and money saved in cooly labour carting, etc.
