[psuresh1982]

In our village we have a garden. My uncle give it to me one five rupee coin and told me the following condition.

1. You need to buy only one item.
2. Using that item, something to feed the cows, something to plant in the garden, something for us to eat, and something for us to drink.

Can you tell me what item should i buy to satisfy all these conditions?

Buy some paddy seedlings for 5rupees.
Grow them in ur garden.
When the crops get matured,reap them.
Separate the paddy into rice and its husk.
Feed ur cow with the husk and the wastes of the crop.
Now rice is for u to eat.
The cow will give u milk and it is for u to drink.

By this way, u can satisfy all the conditions of ur uncle.

I thing you would buy sugarcan. as sugarcan's green part is eatable for cows, some part of it can be planted and also its juice can be drunk.

3roses your answer is not correct. According to your answer we need to wait three to four months to satisfy the condition.
