Seven species of native bulls and cows, nine breeds of sheep and goats and chicken varieties will be on display on the YMCA grounds in Perungudi here on January 6 and 7.
The display is part of an event jointly organised by Ngos like sembulam, farmers, researchers and cattle breeders to highlight the importance and diversity of livestock in Tamil Nadu, said Raja Marthandan, one of the organisers.

Apart from the display of cattle, a food festival will also be organised on the occasion. Chefs will explain on how to make dishes by using millets. A cookery competition will be part of the event.
