Scope and Prospect of
Dairy Farming in North
Eastern Region of India
Dr. S. S. Hanah
POORVANCHAL REGION: Unity in
Diversity...Indian’s Speciality
(North East India)
 India has vast resource of livestock genetic resources comprising of
300 million bovines, 65.07 million sheep, 135.2 million goats and
about 10.3 million pigs as per 19th Livestock Census in the country
 India is the highest milk producer in the entire globe and it is also
known as the 'Oyster' of the global dairy industry.
 Witnessing rapid growth, producing 18.5 % of world total
production, achieving an annual output of 146.3 million tonnes
during 2014-15 as compared to 137.69 million tonnes during 2013-
14 recording a growth of 6.26 %.
 Per capita availability of milk - increased from 176 grams per day in
1990-91 to 322 grams per day by 2014-15 which is more than the
world average of 294 grams per day during 2013.
 This represents a sustained growth in availability of milk and milk
products for the growing population.
 Dairying - considered as a potential means of alleviating large scale
unemployment, nutritional security especially in rural areas- more
than million rural families are engaged in milk production.
 The demand for milk is increasing rapidly, reported to increase
about 155 million tonnes by the end of 12th five year plan and 200-
210 million tons in 2021-22, there is a need to reach an average of 6
million tons per year to meet the ever increasing demand.

There is no recognized breed of cow and buffalo – considered to be important milk
producing animals
19th Livestock Census, there are 132.90 lakhs cattle in NER of India
Maximum cattle population is local cows, crossbred (CB) being only 7 % which is
much lower than the national average of 21 %.
The percentage decline in cattle population is higher in NER (-9%) than the national
average level of -4 %.

There is an increased trend of milk production from 1021 thousand tonnes in 1999 to 1236 thousand
tonnes in 2012-13 which is an increase of 17 % but during the same period milk production of India has
increased by 41 %.
Per capita availability of milk is only 86 gms/day which is only 29 % of the national average of 299
gms/day, much lower than the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) recommendation level of
milk consumption of 220gms/day for a person.

 The total milk production in this region is not sufficient to meet the demand
of the region
 It is observed that dairy farmers of the region don’t utilize properly the
scheme provided by the animal husbandry sector, Govt. of India.
 It is also reported that dairy farmers are no aware of different dairy
development scheme and farmers avoid spending any money or inputs on
these non-descript cattle.
Scope for Dairy Development in NER
Below tables are the facts and figures of how the concerned department has
implemented for dairy livestock improvement.

 Data indicate that dairy farming standard of the region is still far behind the
national level.
 To attend the national standard, the concerned department should not lose
sight of long-term goals for short-term gains.
 they should disseminate information related to
A. Dairy development scheme
B. Subsidy information
C. Technical now how etc. provided by Government of India to rural
poor dairy farmers;
by conducting dairy development training, awareness camp etc.
 Encouraging dairy farmers for introducing high yielding breed for higher
productivity, to adopt “healthy practices” for healthy dairying and
further improving quality, both in terms of input as well as output.
Educating farmers for quality milk production through scientific
managemental practices: sanitation, provision of quality drinking water,
fodder, health care etc. to achieved healthy milk.
Both private and Government sector should shoulder together by developing
A. Infrastructure
B. Implementing integrated co-operative system of milk collection,
transportation, processing and distribution, conversion to milk powder
and products.
 In nutshell, a holistic approach is required such as technical support,
institutional and policy initiation for improvement of breeds, feed availability,
disease control, food safety and private investment are further required to expand
production and improve productivity.
