Objectives: Introduce CARE, CARE-Bangladesh and Strengthening the Dairy Value Chain (SDVC) project; Framework for private sector engagement; Examples of our work with the private sector
This document summarizes a study on the development of the Chinese dairy sector using a value chain approach. It outlines the research questions, objectives, methodology, and results. The study analyzed the dairy value chain in China, comparing production in Beijing and Jiangsu provinces. It found that dairy production is supported by the government but takes different forms. Small farms remain important in some areas while large operations dominate in others. The conclusions suggest improving technical knowledge and decreasing dependence on external feed markets for small farms to remain competitive.
Using the Strengthening the Dairy Value Chain project in Bangladesh, CARE makes the business case for why empowering women farmers is not only essential for improving social and economic outcomes but an effective way to strengthen supply chains.

Role of co -operative society in milk production and marketingDr.S.Selvaraj
1) Dairy cooperative societies play an important role in milk production and marketing in India. They collect milk twice daily from farmers, make regular payments, and dispatch milk to milk unions.
2) Cooperative societies provide important services to member farmers like cattle feed, fodder seeds, animal healthcare, and breeding services. They also distribute profits to members.
3) India has a large unorganized milk market sector where milk is sold through local vendors. The organized cooperative sector accounts for about 20% of milk and has a strong membership base of smallholder dairy farmers.

ION Bangladesh, 11 April 2016 - This presentation will have two parts. Firstly, it will focus on IPv6 deployment status in Bangladesh. The current statistics from different sources will be analyzed and represented there. Though the deployment trend is upward, still not many ISPs are IPv6 enabled. The corporate and enterprise networks as well as the government websites are still running IPv4 only. In this part I’ll also talk about the challenges and how to overcome them. In the second part of the presentation, I will share my experience of IPv6 deployment planning and challenges in Bangladesh Research and Education Network (BdREN). Right now BdREN is running a very limited scale pilot network with only six universities. But soon it will migrate to its countrywide larger network that is going to connect more than 34 universities with dual stack connectivity from day 1. I was directly involved in the planning and deployment of the network and faced many challenges and gathered valuable experience that I would like to share in the presentation. I would talk about IPv6 address planning and migration planning. The presentation would give an overall idea about the IPv6 deployment steps.

Engro Foods produces Olper's milk, which holds a 48% market share of the Pakistani UHT milk market. The market has grown significantly in recent years as consumers shift from unpackaged milk to packaged milk for health and hygiene reasons. Olper's dominates segments like milk for tea/coffee and kids but has potential to grow in emerging segments like milk for fitness. While Engro has strong distribution through traders, competitors have gained by expanding directly owned distribution networks and modern trade channels. To maintain its leading position, Engro should focus on expanding coverage, entering new segments, and maintaining brand awareness.

2) EVALTM pouches are lightweight at only 6 grams for a 1 liter pouch, reducing packaging and transportation costs compared to cartons.
3) As a fully recyclable plastic packaging, EVALTM pouches generate less waste than cartons and foil pouches.
Market Research Report on Milk Processing and Dairy Products in India- By NPCSAjjay Kumar Gupta
If you found yourself overwhelmed at the presence of innumerable variants of dairy products on offer at a food store then you surely have guessed the market potential that the sector holds in the view of changing consumer dynamics. Gone are the days when shopping of dairy products just meant choosing between plain curd or Cottage Cheese or basic sandwich spread, today dairy products have outdone their first forms and evolved into much urbanized and modern consumer centric products. Bringing the industry in the spotlight, Niir Project Consultancy Services has released a new research report titled ‘Market Research Report on Milk Processing & Dairy Products in India (Butter, Yogurt, UHT Milk, Cheese, Ice Cream, Ghee & Other Products) Market Prospects, Present Scenario, Growth Drivers, Demand-Supply Statistics, Industry Size, Sector Outlook, Analysis & Forecasts upto 2017’. The report qualifies as an efficient research tool for prudent business decisions.

Public Sector Value for Value Chain DevelopmentAndrew Paito
The document discusses the role of the public sector in supporting value chain development initiatives for long-term sustainability and scaling up. It presents a conceptual framework and analyzes case studies of three initiatives - Cocoa Life in Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana, Strengthening the Dairy Value Chain in Bangladesh, and Pathways in India, Tanzania and Malawi. The public sector plays an important role through activities like technical assistance, infrastructure development, research, policy frameworks, and facilitating social development. However, the level of engagement varies across contexts from low in Bangladesh to high in Ghana and Cote d'Ivoire. Decentralization and a bottom-up approach linked to local contexts tend to achieve better social

This document discusses catering to the evolving needs of female clients through microfinance. It notes that involving women in financial decision making increases household incomes and economic growth. Some challenges to women's economic participation include cultural beliefs and a lack of products tailored specifically for women. Microfinance institutions can help address this by introducing women-focused financial products and trainings. Case studies of Kashf Pakistan and CARD in the Philippines show both good practices like social mission tracking as well as ongoing challenges around sustainability and outreach.

The document describes barriers facing milk producers and processors in existing marketing channels and the informal sector. It then outlines how SDVC has responded by promoting producer groups, establishing collection points, training collectors, facilitating connections between producers and processors, and introducing digital testing to improve transparency. The DFT model introduced by CARE overcomes issues by testing milk at the village level, aggregating and transporting it securely, and using digital testing at chilling plants. SDVC has also integrated women by developing community collection and supporting women as dairy collectors.

This presentation shares CARE Peru's experience promoting the establishment of independent, private sector service providers in various agricultural value chains.
The document summarizes lessons learned from an experience sharing activity on technical assistance providers (TAPs) in Peru. Key points include: strengthening partnerships to guarantee quality and access to new technologies; ensuring community TAP models offer long-term guarantees; adding leadership training to TAP curricula; and maintaining TAP independence from political cycles and private sector influence while exploring business opportunities. Success rates for TAP enterprises were noted to be lower than for community TAPs. The role of TAPs in promoting gender equality was also highlighted.

The document summarizes the Strengthening the Dairy Value Chain (SDVC) project in Bangladesh, which aims to address inefficiencies in the dairy sector by working with farmers, collectors, shops and processing plants. A key component is Krishi Utsho, a franchise of agro input shops serving over 20,000 farmers per month. While the project has led to increased milk production and sales, challenges remain around partnering with private suppliers, shop financing, and establishing the Krishi Utsho brand. The document discusses various options to help overcome these challenges and further scale up the project.
The SDVC project aimed to strengthen the dairy value chain in Bangladesh to increase incomes for smallholder households, 50% of which were women. The project found that (1) learning groups with high percentages of women members and female leaders had the highest incomes, (2) households where women owned cattle and made selling decisions had higher incomes, and (3) female livestock workers with training achieved higher income increases than men. The project used tools like focus groups and surveys to measure changes in women's empowerment over time, finding an increase in cattle ownership. Moving forward, the project aims to ensure infrastructure supports women's participation and helps women engage in new roles along the value chain while involving men in empowerment efforts.
