If there is a desire to call someone stupid, low minded, then we simply call him a donkey. Such proverbs also go on for those who work hard in our place- Do donkey labour. Whereas the reality is true that the donkey is the most hardworking animal and for this reason humans make him do more work than necessary. Whether it is carrying the burden of man in the hilly areas or his belongings, despite being exploited and harassed, this creature continues to work. The plight of donkeys was not noticed from srinivas Gowda of karnataka and he made a center for donkeys. He patronized the donkeys and is now earning from their milk. 

Donkey's plight was not seen, opened Donkey Farm

According to an article in The New indian Express, 42-year-old Srinivasa Gowda hails from Ramanagara (Ramnagara, Bengaluru) near Bengaluru. He has opened Dunkie Farm near Mangaluru. The plight of the donkeys was not seen from him and for this reason he opened the second such center of the procession and the first in Karnataka.

Started goat farming in Pandemic, now there are donkeys in the farm

A BA graduate, Gowda tried his luck in many types of work. He first opened Aisiri Farms. It was an Integrated Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, Veterinary Services, Training and Forest Development Center. He had a land of 2.3 acres in ira village in Bantwal taluk and opened a farm here. He used to work in a software firm. Leaving his job in Pandemic, he started raising goats. The special thing is that rabbits and Kadaknath chicken were also breeding in his farm. Now 20 donkeys have also come there.

People made fun of Srinivas

Earlier donkeys were used by washermen but now machines have come, modern technology took away their work from donkeys. While the number of donkeys was 3,60,000 in 2012, it has come down to 1,27,000 in 2017. After a lot of research, he got donkeys from karnataka and andhra pradesh and started farming. Gowda told that when people heard that he was going to open a donkey farm, everyone made fun of him.

Earning bumper by selling donkey milk.

Srinivas also sells donkey milk. The cost of a 30ml packet can be up to Rs 150. They supply donkey milk to supermarkets, malls and shops. Soon he will also supply milk to a company making beauty products and he has also got an order of Rs 17 lakh.
