Uses of Cow-Urine
Cow-urine can be used:
• In Ayurvedic medicines The Ayurveda system of medicine describes cow-urine (Gomutra) to be a therapeutic agent. Mostly, cow's urine is given orally directly or indirectly in the form of pills along with other ingredients to cure a number of diseases.
• As a pesticide for plants Emerging data on cow's urine have reported its anti-fungal effects. It protects plants from pests and fungi.
• In pure form Cow-urine is used by Hindus in a number of auspicious functions. Some also consume it directly or in its distilled form called Ark.

Cow-Dung

Cow dung is basically the rejects of herbivorous matter which is acted upon by symbiotic bacteria residing within the animal's rumen. The resultant faecal matter is a rich in minerals.
Uses of Cow Dung

Cow Dung can be used:

• Manure Cow Dung is rich in minerals and that makes it very good manure. It is generally preferred over chemical fertilizers as it maintains the pH of the soil, unlike the chemical fertilizers which disturb the pH balance of the soil after repeated usage. Vermicompost could also be developed using cow-dung.
• Pest-Repellent A majority of synthetic herbicides and pesticides are environmentally unsafe. These are toxic at exceedingly small concentration to human being and the target pest are reportedly developing resistance to these chemicals. A composition of cow-dung and urine forms a very effective pest repellent. Go-vigyan Anusandhan Kendra, Nagpur, an organization doing research on development of products from cow-urine and dung, has developed the formulation and produced the repellent that has proven performance for seasonal crops and horticulture. This organization has also developed mosquito repellent using cow-dung.
