Paramānanda: Prabhupāda, our cows are multiplying very quickly, so we were wondering, we have figured out that by the end of two years we will have as many cows as we can support off this land. We'll have 100 cows. So we were wondering...
Prabhupāda: So get more land.
Tamal Kṛṣṇa: The land is very costly, Prabhupāda. This land cost $350,000.
Prabhupāda: No, no, no. We purchase somewhere land and keep the cows there... cattle there grazing.
Bali Mardan: Grazing land... down south... year-round land.
Devakīnandana: Would the cows be milked there or would they just be allowed to graze?
Prabhupāda: No, whatever you can milk you keep here. Otherwise let them graze there.
Bali Mardan: Like all the bulls that are not being utilized.
Prabhupāda: They will eat grass and grow, nature's way.

Gokularanjana das Prabhu memories vol 3 tape 44:

With his cane Srila Prabhupada pointed to the skyline and said, ‘Do you see this city? This city and all cities will collapse very soon. Do you know why?’ Everyone hesitated, wondering. But Tamal Krishna quickly said, ‘Because the people here don’t know how to grow food.’ Srila Prabhupada said, ‘Yes.’ Growing food is the whole purpose of our farm communities and we are still trying to grasp their importance.”

*Why they are not attracted to live in the farm and be self-independent and chant Hare Kṛṣṇa?*
~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Prabhupāda:* So new... When they are trained up, they can come, live, especially gṛhasthas. My point is whether the farm is attractive. Not very much?

*Yogeśvara:* The potential is wonderful.

*Prabhupāda:* And therefore I'm asking. Potential is wonderful, so *why they are not attracted to live in the farm and be self-independent and chant Hare Kṛṣṇa?* That is our farm project. Our farm project is they should be satisfied with simple living. That is nice living. If you get milk, if you get fruit, if you get grain and open air, it is very healthy life. Why they should not be attracted?

*Yogeśvara:* It is still the beginning, and because it's the beginning, it is a little difficult sometimes.

*Prabhupāda:* That may be. But this should be our aim. We should not be attracted by the modern city life. Simplified life. Save time and utilize for advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That is perfect life. Just like Vṛndāvana. *Vṛndāvana life means agriculturist—cowherd boys, uneducated girls, cows and calves and tree, fruits. This is Vṛndāvana.* The center is Kṛṣṇa.

*Yogeśvara:* Simple living.

*Prabhupāda:* But they are the topmost devotees. *These [chuckling] uneducated, without any town life, cow-men, they are Kṛṣṇa's best friend.* Unsophisticated, no education, but love intense—that is perfect. That attracted Kṛṣṇa more. Vṛndāvanaṁ parityajya pādam ekaṁ na kartavya[?]... Kṛṣṇa is so much attached to Vṛndāvana that He goes nowhere. What is that? *They are not educated girls, up-to-date fashion, [indistinct] or nothing. Crude.* As soon as there was blowing of the flute, immediately they began to run towards Kṛṣṇa. Somebody is taking care of children, somebody is engaged in boiling milk, and somebody was even lying down with her husband. Still, immediately. Very crude, unsophisticated, but intense love for Kṛṣṇa—that is Vṛndāvana. *We want to introduce this farm project means intense love for Kṛṣṇa.* And other things—very simple: little milk, little food grain, little vegetable, that's all. And that is very nice. If you get fresh vegetable, fresh milk and food grain, what do you want more? And from milk you can prepare so many nice preparations, unlimited number, all very palatable, sweet. This civilization we want to introduce, not so-called rascal civilization and become implicated in this cycle of birth and death. This is not civilization. This is killing civilization............. Such a rascal civilization. So we have to introduce real civilization. *Therefore we are struggling so hard. So make in such a way.*

SB 7.14.9
Srimad-Bhagavatam
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

mṛgoṣṭra-khara-markākhu-
sarīsṛp khaga-makṣikāḥ
ātmanaḥ putravat paśyet
tair eṣām antaraṁ kiyat

SYNONYMS
mṛga—deer; uṣṭra—camels; khara—asses; marka—monkeys; ākhu—mice; sarīsṛp—snakes; khaga—birds; makṣikāḥ—flies; ātmanaḥ—of one's self; putra-vat—like the sons; paśyet—one should see; taiḥ—with those sons; eṣām—of these animals; antaram—difference; kiyat—how little.

TRANSLATION
One should treat animals such as deer, camels, asses, monkeys, mice, snakes, birds and flies exactly like one's own son. How little difference there actually is between children and these innocent animals.

From Purport: For example, in the agricultural fields there may be many mice, flies and other creatures that disturb production, and sometimes they are killed by pesticides. In this verse, however, such killing is forbidden. Every living entity should be nourished by the food given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Human society should not consider itself the only enjoyer of all the properties of God; rather, men should understand that all the other animals also have a claim to God's property. In this verse even the snake is mentioned, indicating that a householder should not be envious even of a snake. If everyone is fully satisfied by eating food that is a gift from the Lord, why should there be envy between one living being and another?
