People in village usually live in houses made of bricks, clay or mud. These typically have two or three rooms which house extended families. Although many village inhabitants now prefer living in separate home for each family (nuclear units), they live in close proximity to their relatives, extending their villages by building more homes. Due to geographical and other socioeconomic diversity, different regions have slightly different physical and social layout. For example, in Gongrani, Balochistan, people live in homes built within cliff-side caves that are connected by walkways.[1] Most of the villagers are farmers but other rural occupations include blacksmiths, hairdressers and tailorers, shepherds.[1]
Rural social organization in Pakistan is marked by kinship and exchange relations.[2] Socioeconomic status among rural Pakistani villagers is often based upon the ownership of agricultural land, which also may provide social prestige in village cultures.[3] The majority of rural Pakistani inhabitants livelihoods is based upon the rearing of livestock, which also comprises a significant part of Pakistan's gross domestic product.[4] Some livestock raised by rural Pakistanis include cattle and goats.[5]
The traditional culture of the village is now subject to change due to the effects upon village society due to rural urbanization,[6] and from the introduction of electricity and modern technology, such as pumps and tube wells for irrigation.[7] Resistance to social and cultural changes exists among many Pakistani village inhabitants, and varying methods of managing these changes have been tried.
Let’s talk about Desi Cows and the Village Culture!In most cases, Cows go out to graze in the morning at 8-9am and would return from grazing around 5pm. Along with cows, her calves would also join in this grazing activity and would be with her whole day, drinking her milk. Cows, and especially Calves, love running around, throwing tantrums at mums and so (like how human babies do lol 😲😀😊). When they get home in the evening, the mother of the family does ‘Dohan’ (the word Dohan itself also has its roots in Ethical Milking, more on that in a different post) and take her milk.
Many folks ask us how our farmers take care of Desi Cows, how the milking happens, how much milk is fed to calves, etc. We thought to clarify some of their questions in this post where, invariably we will also talk about the Village Culture, Soil, and Farming in general...since it’s a complete ecosystem wherein each element is deeply in tune with the other elements and components.
So, let’s talk about Desi Cows and the Village Culture!
Cows, Grazing, and Milking!
In most cases, Cows go out to graze in the morning at 8-9am and would return from grazing around 5pm.
Along with cows, her calves would also join in this grazing activity and would be with her whole day, drinking her milk. Cows, and especially Calves, love running around, throwing tantrums at mums and so (like how human babies do, lol 😲😀😊).
When they get home in the evening, usually, the mother in the farmer family does ‘Dohan’* (the word Dohan itself also has its roots in Ethical Milking, please check our footnote) and take her milk. The cow, during ‘Dohan’ remains profoundly still (yes!), and only allows someone she is dear to, to take her milk. A new member or even an existing member who has not done ‘Dohan’ before will not be able to take milk from a Desi cow! A Desi cow or we have heard, even a Buffalo, is likely to kick that person if that happens 😂
And since her babies already have taken their share, we take the remaining milk which would be around 1/1.5 litre (one of the reasons desi milk costs 90 per liter) for human consumption (but that’s alright, of course).
