5. HISTORY
CONTACT
In the 1920s, modern milk processing and marketing
technologies were introduced in India. The National Dairy
Development Board (NDDB) was founded in 1965. It launched
Operation Flood in 1969–70, a programme aimed at
modernising and developing the dairy sector using
co-operatives. During this period, dairy co-operatives emerged
as a dominant force, as a result of the exploitative nature of
private milk plants and vendors.
India has been the world's largest milk producer since 1997,
when it surpassed the United States.
During 2019–20, India exported 51,421.85 metric tonnes of
dairy products, at a total value of ₹1,341.03 crore (US$186.71
million). Major destinations for its exports were United Arab
Emirates, Bhutan, Turkey, Egypt, and the United States.

20. COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
CONTACT
Based on global competition, time series analysis has been
carried out to find the past trend and future direction. The
position of India has been examined and compared along with
of a few other leading milk producers. The analysis indicates
that over the past two decades the global competition for milk
production has witnessed a downward trend. Whereas, the
market share of milk production of India is increasing. This
indicates that over the years the competitiveness of the Indian
dairy sector has been improving. In this context, cost of milk
production, farm size, infrastructure for milk collection, milk
processing capacity, quality of dairy products, etc. have been
highlighted to gain global competitive advantage. In addition,
there is a need to manage the Indian dairy industry in a
manner to enhance the production of dairy products and
upgrade milk processing using innovative technologies.
21. ISSUES & CHALLENGES
CONTACT
• Informal sector: More than 70% of marketable surplus goes through informal channel
where quality is a big concern. As a result, middlemen usurp large share of rofit meant for
rural farmer and milk producers.
• Quality issues: Quality of milk or value-added products is a barrier to entry to the export
market, especially the USA and the EU.
• Pricing issues: Prices decided by cooperatives are not based on fat measurement,
which affects Farmer’s profitability. In addition, lower prices declared by cooperatives,
results in low prices of milk paid by all the players in the industry.
• Lack of adequate breeding and preventive care services: Along with low access to
credit and risk-taking ability, this factor makes farmers unable to increase their herd size.
• Adulteration: Adulteration and dilution is also a problem with adulterants like vegetable
oil, detergents, glucose and urea entering the milk, thus degrading the milk quality and
jeopardizing health of consumers.
• Inadequate marketing: Due to lack of marketing facilities and extension services, there
is poor perception of the farmers towards commercial dairy enterprise as an alternative to
other occupation.
24. MARKET OPPORTUNITIES
CONTACT
A study undertaken by a private agency has estimated that of the total
surplus, 20% is processed in the cooperative sector, 30% by branded
private dairy companies, and the rest by the unorganised sector (milk for
sweet shops, loose milk, etc). Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh,
Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, and
Punjab together account for 65% of the country’s milk production. .
Future growth of dairy must come from newer areas, and with
modernised technology suited for small dairy farmers.
25. FUTURE TRENDS
CONTACT
• Increasing demand for Organic Milk and Milk Products.
• UHT Milk.
• A2 Milk.
• Hydroponics fodder preparation.
• Modern Mechanisation of Dairy Farm.
• Loose Housing System (Mukta Gotha).
• Total milk production in India may touch 216 Million Tons by 2030.
