PAS 1 "Farmer Lakhabhai Becharbhai Khatana treat cattle having diarrhoea. For treating this condition, the respondent pounds "sudiya" vine and then administers 200 to 250 g of extracted juice by drench-pipe to the animal. The animal is relieved of diarrhoea if the medicine is drenched twice a day for two days. "
PAS 2 " Farmer Pratapbhai Sonabhai Chauhan cure diarrhoea with the help of tendu (Diospyros melanoxylon) fruit. In case, the cow, buffalo or bullock or any other animal is suffering from diarrhoea, grind about 300 to 400 gram rind of tendu (Diospyros melanoxylon) fruit. Add to it one-litre water. Keep it aside for one or two hours. Filter it with cloth or sieve. Drench all the solution to the animal in a single day (half the quantity in the morning and remaining in the evening). This cleans the digestive track and also improves digestive capacity of the animal. Diarrhoea is thus cured."
