Abstract :
Now a day?s pollution is increasing rapidly
whether it is related to land or it is related to soil, water and
air. This is due to increase in industrial activities in
which some industries releases their waste without treating
them and ultimately polluting the environment and if these
pollutants pollutes the soil than it will be consumed by
plants through roots which ultimately affects the members
of ecosystem or environment and also due to use of
chemical pesticides soil gets polluted and also these
pollutants enter the plants through roots and ultimately
affects the members of ecosystem and environment. So we
have to search for better alternatives for chemical
pesticides. Now as soil are polluted so we have to search
for treatment which does not pollute the environment but
also helpful to change some soil properties. In this research
cow dung was used for treatment of polluted soil which
was polluted by sulphuric acid. Due to addition of
sulphuric acid Ph of soil lowers down but with the addition
of cow dung pH of soil increases which is good sign of
treatment for soil. The historical importance of Indian Cow
from vedic scriptures and her effective utilization of
panchgavya (mixture of urine, milk, ghee, curd and dung of
Indian Cow) and individual products mentioned in various
vedic book like Bhagwat Geeta, Mahabharat,etc were
studied which was suggested by the known holly persons
who were using cow dung as a medicine ,as a thermal
insulator, as a plaster, flooring etc.
