PAS_1	Supplementation of Tinospora cordifolia increased dry matter intake, milk production, milk protein (%) and reduced somatic cell count during winter season. (Effects of Supplementation of Tinospora cordifolia (Guduchi) on Lactation Parameters in Murrah Buffaloes during Winter Season (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/330104174_Effects_of_Supplementation_of_Tinospora_cordifolia_Guduchi_on_Lactation_Parameters_in_Murrah_Buffaloes_during_Winter_Season )
PAS_2	It was found that the feeding of giloy stem powder or Fenugreek seed powder alone or in combination to lactating Jersey crossbred cows did not lead to any significant change on the milk yield and milk composition (Milk Fat, SNF, milk protein and lactose).

Procedure of Use	"When milk production in animals reduce, subsequently milk products too suffers. This leads to great losses for the farmer. To increase milk /Ghee production, crush Gulancha (Tinospora cordifolia) creepers (including leaf stalks and leaves) to a paste. The extract is mixed with little water and fed to the affected animal for a week. This increases the milk production in the animal according to Manguben of Sheeyawad village of Dholka taluka in Ahmed district. Manguben learnt this method from her forefather."
