and processing of animal milk - mostly

buffalo, sheep, or camels - for human
consumption.
People feed their buffalos on various
kinds of grass and the jowar and bajra
that grow during the rainy season.

 Traders have set up collection cum chilling centers
from where the milk is transported to far away towns
and cities.
 More than 40% of Indian farming households are
engaged in milk production.
 In 2001 India became the world leader in milk
production with a production volume of 84 million
tons.

Dairy Development Board (NDDB) in the year
1970.
