Farmer Rajeshwari U. (28) of Nadukuppam village in Villupuram district has a simple solution. “Dairy farmers in our village sit together as a group once a month and make masal urundai (medicinal balls) made of herbs like pirandai, sothu kathazhai, veliparuthi, etc. to boost immunity for our cows,” she said. Rajaram regularly uses a concoction of turmeric and jeera to build immunity for his poultry and trusts traditional systems for cure. However, he prefers allopathic vaccines for disease prevention or epidemic control.
