A significant natural farming conference took place at Shri Dwarka Gaushala in Bhathaan Chowk, Devbhoomi Dwarka. Farmers practicing natural farming and gaushala operators gathered to discuss sustainable agriculture. The event featured Gujarat’s Governor, Acharya Devvratji, who emphasized the importance of cows in Indian culture. He highlighted how cows provide milk throughout their lives and are respected in scriptures. Governor Devvratji noted that modern technology has changed agriculture, sometimes harming our environment. He criticized the excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which he described as slow poison. These practices lead to environmental issues like climate change. The Governor urged farmers to adopt natural farming techniques to restore ecological balance. He mentioned that cow dung and cow urine are valuable for organic farming, often more precious than milk. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has initiated the “National Natural Farming Mission” to encourage farmers to move away from chemical agriculture. Governor Devvratji expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister for this initiative, aiming to make farmers self-sufficient through cow protection. The conference included talks from Dr. Girish Shah, a member of the Animal Welfare Board of India, who shared details about various cow conservation projects in Gujarat. The event also recognized contributions from donors and cow service volunteers. The committee leader, Ramjibhai Majithiya, thanked all participants. The gathering concluded with a visit to the gaushala, where the Governor met trustees and volunteers to discuss cow conservation efforts. Many officials and local farmers were present, showcasing the community’s commitment to sustainable farming and cow welfare. The Shri Dwarka Gaushala Committee encourages anyone interested in their work to contact Ramjibhai Majithiya for more information.
