The Rajasthan government is considering creating a portal to help people buy and sell cows online. The portal is likely to come up in six months and will host pictures, yield, the price of cows and contact details of owners. The buyers can get in touch with the sellers directly.

“Our efforts are to increase farmers’ income and ensure no cow is abandoned. The farmers will receive the right price of cattle and role of middlemen will be curbed,” Rajasthan cow welfare minister, Otaram Devarsi told Hindustan Times.

Farmers were told to form an association to run the website with the aid of the government. Rajasthan has a dedicated ministry for cows. The government is confident that the portal will increase cattle trade.

As per the government data of 2016, Rajasthan has 2,327 shelters with 660,000 cattle. The ministry tagged 550,000 animals with unique identification numbers in August to ensure their protection.
