Beautiful scenery but if you carefully see, you will find some brown colored stuff on the field. These are cow dung cakes left in the field for drying. These cakes are made from cow dung, clay soil and dried grass. A woman in village makes a mixture of these things and then gives a shape of cake and then spread it for drying. So what’s the use of it? Its used a fuel for making fire in stove and cook food. It is used with wood and it burns good, just like coal. You must be thinking it how can someone use a stuff like this, it must smell really disgusting but believe me if you take a dried cow dung cake, it does not smell. A good fuel as it conserve wood and coal but it causes lot of smoke when burnt which is not good for person cooking food.
