Young Nepali Man Earns Over NPR 2 Lakh Monthly from Dairy Farming After Returning from Saudi Arabia

Parbat. Despite working in the Gulf country Saudi Arabia for eight years for employment, a young man from Parbat, unable to earn as expected, has returned home and started commercial dairy farming, earning more than NPR 2 lakh per month. Narayan GC, 45, from Farse, Jaljala Rural Municipality-8, Parbat, has succeeded in earning more than NPR 2 lakh per month by staying in his own country.

GC, who has been involved in commercial dairy farming for the past 13 years, has 12 cows and one buffalo in his shed. He informed that he produces 75 to 80 liters of milk daily and sells it in the market. "After starting dairy farming, I worked in Saudi Arabia for eight years, but since the earnings were not as good as at home, I returned and expanded the business," he said.
