Makes good business sense if managed properly would make a lot off new employment ..And what about the Camels that were supposed to be brought down here as well???
Sue Thursday, 16 August 2012 10:02 AM
Poor cows. Ours go abroad to seek greener pastures while these come here for what?
simple mind Thursday, 16 August 2012 09:15 AM

You hit the nail on the head. What does this man know about dairy farming , what are his qualifications ?
Tyrone Thursday, 16 August 2012 07:30 AM

WOW!! More than milk $$$ are nutritious. Why cant we export and part exchange some of the corrupt cattle who are ruling the country as they are plenty, may be foreign countries can use them for test purposes specially the brains.

Serendipity Thursday, 16 August 2012 04:11 AM
Is it really necessary to import, how about a few from the farm bordering Diyawanna Oya.
Fazli Thursday, 16 August 2012 03:17 AM
All in all waste of more puplic funds
Nodrog Thursday, 16 August 2012 02:45 AM
Obviously someones making a buck here because just recently dairy farmers threw away their milk. because the NLDB was not buying it.
JAY PATHBEY Thursday, 16 August 2012 02:20 AM
It is a good business move to import livestock, especially cows. But for 20,000 cows where are the grazing lands, barley wheet or corn feed.
Do we have infrastructure to maintain these poor animals. If done scientifically if could be a gold mine while providing an essential source of vitamin D and calcium for all. But who in Sri Lanka knowsanything about largescale cattle farming.

Hope you don't spill all the milk into the drain .
Mr. B Wijeyasingha Wednesday, 15 August 2012 10:49 PM
I wonder what species of cows have been imported. Sri Lanka has the Brahmin bull species of cows which has a low yield of milk but combine them with European species of cows and milk production increases

The upcountry green pastures will be dotted with 20000 black and white dotted cows. What a great transformation for tourism - Green background dotted with Cows - a definite attraction for tourism and Milk. More employment too - presumably milkers, collection centres and processing plants. Upcountry to Cow country! we could export Milk powder too in the future!
