Speaking about the benefits of donkey milk and his plan for the farm, he said, "Presently we have 20 donkeys and I have made an investment of around Rs 42 lakhs. We are planning to sell donkey milk, which has a lot of advantages. Our dream is that donkey milk should be available to everyone. Donkey milk is a medicine formula."
Gowda said he thought of the idea because of the decline in the number of donkey species. He said, initially people were not convinced by the idea of the donkey farm.
"The milk will be available in packets and a 30 ml milk packet will cost Rs 150," according to a report by Moneycontrol.
