Gramik – India’s first peer commerce in agritech, is set to tap the growing cattle industry in India after setting a benchmark in the agricultural industry. The platform is launching three cattle feed supplements – ‘Doodh Sagar’, ‘Heifer Mix’, and ‘Urja Pashu PoshakAahar’ in August.

The new range of products is launched with a vision to help the livestock farmers of India gain an edge in the industry to make acquiring quality cattle feed supplements accessible at affordable prices.

Raj Yadav, founder & CEO, Gramik, said, “Young animals, especially, need a nutrient-rich diet to support their rapid growth and development. Nutrients like protein, calcium, and phosphorus are essential for building strong bones, muscles, and organs. The newly launched cattle feed supplements by Gramik are a result of extensive research and considerate discussions with farmers on the problems they face in procuring high-quality supplements for cattle at affordable rates in the marketplace.”

India is the country with the largest number of milk-producing bovines in the world, producing over 187 million tonne of milk each day, and contributing 27% of the agricultural GDP in India. Thus, to help the Indian farmers increase the milk production capacity of dairy animals, a feed supplement – ‘Doodh Sagar’ is launched, which will provide the lactating cattle with essential nutrients like carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, amino acids, and fatty acids.

Adding value to the supplement, the packaging of the products comes with essential directions and advice on the suggested quantities according to various age groups of animals. The company is also planning to conduct various educational meetings in the states of Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra to educate the cattle herders about the importance of using supplements and maximising the benefits reaped out of them.
