About Alambadi CattleAbout Alambadi Cattle



In the heart of the hilly regions of modern-day Tamil Nadu, India, thrives a breed of cattle as rare and resilient as the landscapes they call home – the Alambadi. Born from the storied past of Alambadi Village, these majestic creatures have carved out a niche for themselves in the annals of Indian agriculture, revered for their adaptability and versatility.

Once primarily kept as drought animals, tasked with enduring the harsh realities of arid climates, Alambadi cattle have evolved over time. Today, local cattle breeders are on a quest to unlock their full potential, striving to enhance their milk production and elevate their status within the agricultural community.

Medium-sized and robust, Alambadi cattle cut a striking figure against the backdrop of the Tamil Nadu hills. Cloaked in shades of grey, dark grey, or black, with delicate white markings adorning their forehead, limbs, and tail, they exude an air of understated elegance. Their narrow heads and backward-curving horns lend them a regal demeanor, while their prominent foreheads and humps, coupled with a thick dewlap, speak to their inherent strength and resilience.

In the intricate tapestry of Indian agriculture, Alambadi cattle play a vital role, serving as steadfast companions to farmers in the hilly regions of Tamil Nadu. An adult Alambadi bull typically weighs between 317-362 kg, while a cow averages around 290 kg, a testament to their sturdy build and robust constitution.

As they graze upon the verdant pastures of their homeland, Alambadi cattle stand as silent sentinels of a bygone era, their legacy woven into the very fabric of Alambadi Village and beyond. With each passing day, they continue to embody the timeless virtues of hard work, resilience, and adaptability, leaving an indelible mark on the agricultural landscape of India.
