Precautions
Procedure of Use	During the monsoon season when the workload is heavy, bullocks may suffer yoke gall. To start with, there could be inflammation of the shoulder region. This may lead to yoke gall. To avert yoke gall, Madhubhai Vanand prepares a juice from the pounded roots of ber tree (Zizyphus jujuba) and adds common salt to it. Now the paste to avert yoke gall is ready. He applies the paste on the shoulder region of the bullock for four days, twice daily. This technique is helpful as preventive against yoke gall.
