Nilgai

Readers,
This is the largest antelope of this region. It is called blue bull or nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus). 
It is blueish-grey in colour and has horns, this means it is an adult male. The females and the young ones are of orange-tawny colour and don't have horns. 
These animals are seen solitary, in pair or in small herds. They often enter the farms and spoil the crop.

Mustard

The Mustard (Brassica juncea) crop is grown in this region during winter. Their yellow flowers in the farm virtually change the farm into a garden; and the landscape becomes wonderful. 
Mustard oil is extracted from their seeds; and leaves can be used as green vegetable.
