Nimari is a draft-purpose breed also known as Khargaon, Khargoni, Khurgoni. This breed originated from the crossing of Gir and Khillari. Gir blood has contributed to its coat color, massive body structure, and convexity of the forehead, and Khillari blood to its hardiness, agility, and temper. Named after place of its origin i.e. Nimar region. It is mainly found in the Central parts of Khargaon, Badwani districts, and very few in the bordering Dhar district and adjacent areas of Madhya Pradesh and adjoining districts of Maharashtra state as its breeding track.
