Polson plays a major role in dairy development. Pastonji Edulji Dalal, a
parasi, started the business with selling coffee bean under the name Polson. Polson’s
coffee was supplied to the British and Indian armed forces. In 1915 Polson got a big
order for butter from the armed forces. He started Polson’s Model Dairy in January
3, 1930.13
In 1945 Polson obtained from the Bombay government an executive order giving his
dairy the monopoly to purchase milk from Anand and the fourteen villages that
surrounded it, simultaneously banning the export of milk or milk products from
Kaira district. Because of Polson’s exploitation milk producers started to think of
co-operation as a means of self-defence.12 On December, 14th 1946, Kaira District
Cooperative Milk producers Union Limited was registered. Kaira Co-operative was
not unique. There were other milk co- operatives in India like Madras Co-operative
Milk Supply Union, which was 19 years old in 1945-46, the Coimbatore Co-
operative Milk Supply Union, the Allahabad Milk supply Union and the Lucknow
Milk Supply Union.5
The earlier attempts at dairy development can be traced back to the British
rule, when the defense department established military dairy farms to ensure supply
of milk and milk products to the colonial army. The first farm was established in
Allahabad in 1913.4 In post-independence period, modernization of the dairy
industry became a priority of the government with the initiation of a planning
process. One of the first policy initiatives immediately after independence was the
recommendation from the milk sub-committee of the policy committee on
Agriculture (1950) which resulted in City Milk Scheme Set up in Delhi. The
government implemented various schemes such as Key Village Scheme (KVS) and
Intensive Cattle Development Project (ICDP) to increase milk production. However,
during the two decades between 1951 & 1971, the milk production remained more
or less stagnant and growth in milk production was nearly one percent.13

2.3 Operation Flood Period –
National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) was set up in Anand in 1965 &
gave it the task of helping the bodies set up by the State Governments to develop
dairy projects along the lines of Anand. The operation Flood (OF) programme was
launched by the National Dairy Development Board to develop a viable and self
sustaining dairy industry in 1970. The key objective of the programme was to create
a strong network and linkages between procurement, processing and distribution of
milk by the Co-opeartive sector & thus linking the milk producing Villages with the
major urban markets.9
The first phase of operation flood was for the period of 10 years. With successful
implementation of OF – I, OF – II was launched to widen the area covered under the
OF programme.

The first phase of Operation Flood (OF-I) was launched in 1970 following an
agreement with the World Food Programme, which undertook to provide 1,26,000
tons of skimmed milk powder and 42,000 tons of butter oil over the five years of the
project.19 The programme involved organizing dairy co-operatives at village levels,
creating physical and institutional infrastructure for milk procurement, processing,
marketing & production enhancement programmes / services at the union levels.
The programme adopted Anand Pattern. Under the Anand Pattern milk producers in
each village form their own Village Dairy Co-operative, elect the Board of
Management which sets the Co-operative’s policies & empower the board to appoint
a secretary, who manages the co-operative & who is paid out of its earning. Every
morning and evening, the co-operative buys milk from all producers in the village
who wish to sell their milk to it. The co-operative staff measure the milk bought
from each producer and test it for its fat content. Within twelve hours, he or she is
paid for the milk sold earlier and each payment is based on the tested fat content of
milk.15
Operation Flood I was expected to last five years – from 1970 to 1975. This
period was subsequently extended to mid 1978. This project covers 57 districts of 10
states i.e. Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Hariyana, Maharashtra, Punjab, Rajsthan,
Tamilnadu, Uttarpradesh and West Bengal. By the each of OF-I about 13,500 dairy
co-operative societies in 39 milk shades were organized with 17.50 lakh member
farmers. It achieved milk procurement of 34 lakh LPD and marketing 28 lakh LPD.
The OF-I extended to six years due to delay in implementation and also delay in
receipt of commodities.9
17
2.4.2 Operation Flood – II
The second phase of the programme was implemented between 1981 to 1985
and covered 22 States/Union territories. OF-II was designed on the foundation of
OF-I. The total investment was Rs.2771.70 million. The main objectives of OF-II
are –
1. To enroll some 10 million rural families in a viable self-sustaining dairy
industry.
2. To erect a National Milk Grid linking producers in rural areas to urban
centers with a total population of 150 million.
3. Set up a national frozen semen centre, develop vaccine production and step
up the design and manufacture of dairy equipment.
4. To provide 180 grams of milk each day for a total population of 750 million.
OF-II helped to market milk in about 148 cities & towns with a total
population of 15 million through a National Milk Grid linking these town
and cities to 136 milk sheds. The project expanded the number of village co-
operatives to 34,500 covering 36 lakh farmers. The peak milk procurement
increased to a level of 79 lakhs L.P.D. and milk marketing to 50 lakhs
L.P.D.14

income generation through dairying. These programmes transformed the Indian
dairying scenario drastically from an insignificant one to the world leader. But all
this growth in dairy production took place largely under a regulated market
environment, both domestically and externally.7
III. Marketing –
1) In 2006-07 average daily milk marketing stood at 181.27 lakh liters;
annual growth has averaged about 6.2% compounded over the last five
years.
2) Milk is marketed in about 200 class I cities including metros and some
600 smaller towns.
3) During 1991-2007 the daily milk supply has increased from 37.3 to 63.6
liters per 1000 urban consumers.
19
2.6 Institutional Support for Dairy Development
Following are some institutes which are supporting Dairy Development in
India.
1) National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) –
National Dairy Development Board was established in 1965 at Anand
(Gujarat) to replace exploitation with empowerment, tradition with
modernity, stagnation with growth, transforming dairying into an instrument
for the development of India’s rural people. NDDB began its operations with
the mission of making dairying a vehicle to a better future for millions of
grass roots milk producers. The mission achieved thrust and direction with
the launching of Operation Flood – a programme extending over 26 years
and which used World Bank loan to finance India’s emergence as the
World’s largest milk producing nation. Since its inception, the Dairy Board
has planned and spearheaded India’s dairy programmes by placing dairy
development in the hands of milk producers and the professionals they
employ to manage their co-operatives.
20
4) National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI) –
NDRI was established in 1955 at Karnal in Hariyana state. The NDRI
metamorphosed into a national institute from older Imperial institution of
Animal Husbandry and Dairying founded at Bangalore in 1923. The NDRI
engages itself in teaching, research and extension activities and the
participants in this three dimensional activities are the scientists, the farmers
as students and dairy industry at large. It develops educational programmes
to meet the man- power requirements of dairy industry. The main function of
NDRI is to advice and assist with regard to techno economic feasibility
projects, reports, product development work and quality control. This
institute has two regional research centers at Kalyani (West Bengal) and
Bangalore (Karnataka).

Graph 2.1 How a rupee is spent on overall household expenditure
The table 2.2 shows that how a household spends a rupee on their requirements.
Spending on the food and beverages is maximum i. e. 51 percent where as the
remaining rupee is spent on the other items such as fuel and light, clothing and
footwear, medical care, recreation, durable goods, education, gross rent, transport
and miscellaneous.
Out of total expenditure on food again the amount is spend on the different food
products like cereals, milk and milk products, meat, egg, fish, pulses, edible oil,
sugar, pulses, beverages, vegetables, ,fruits and nuts.

2.8 World Milk Production -
World milk production is the aggregate of the cow milk and buffalo milk
production.
Table 2.4 World Milk Production (Million Tones)
Table 2.4 shows that world cow milk as well as buffalo milk production has
increased from 1997 to 2007 continuously. Cow milk production is far more than
the buffalo milk production over a period of time.
24
2.9 Buffalo Milk Production in India -
Buffalo milk production in India from 1997 to 2006 is given in the following table.
Table 2.5 Buffalo Milk Production in India (Million Tones)
From the table it can be observed that buffalo milk production in India has increased
from 384 million tones in 1997 to 525 million tones in 2007. But if it is compared
against the world buffalo milk production, it is very less.

Although the existing dairy development programmes in the country have increased
the milk production, yet the real increase in per capita availability of milk is
marginal. The per capita availability of milk has been declined from 132 grams in
1951 to 108 gms in 1966. After 1966 it increased from 108 to 112 grams in 1971
and 131 gms which was about two times less than the minimum requirement of 280
gms as recommended by the National Advisory committee. Per capita availability
has been increased from 149 gms in 1985 to 246 gms in 2006-07.

Figure 2.4 Production of Milk and per capita availability of milk in India
The table 2.7 shows that milk production has increased over a period of time from
55.7 million tons in 1991 – 2000 to 100 million tons in 2006-07. Per capita milk
availability also shows the increasing trend from 178 gm/ day in 1991 -2000 to 246
gms / day in 2006-07. But if we compare this statistics against world milk
production and consumption then it is low.
28
Graph 2.5 Per Capita Availability of milk in Maharashtra
The table 2.8 shows that per capita availability of milk in Maharashtra has increased
from 136 gms / day in 1991-92 to 172 gms / day in 2003 -04. If we compare per
capita milk availability in Maharashtra against per capita milk availability in India,
availability in Maharashtra is far lees than the country average.

From the table 2.9, it can be observed that the live stock population of cattle has
increased from 1951 to 1992, but decreased in 1997 and 2003. In case of other
species it has shown increasing trend from 1951 to 2003. This has ultimately
increased the total milk production.

average size of household. Increasing trend can be observed for the per capita
consumption expenditure of milk and milk products over a period of time.

making efforts to increase the productivity of milk animals and thus increase the per
capita availability of milk.3
The Annual Report of the NDDB for 2007-08 states that a draft National Dairy
Plan (NDP) has been proposed to increase the country’s milk production to meet the
projected demand of 180 million tones by 2021-22. With an estimated outlay of
Rs.173 billion, the National Dairy Plan focuses on -
1) Productivity measures to enhance milk production as the average annual
production will have to increase from 2½ million tones to 5 million tones
over the next 15 years.
2) Strengthening and expanding infrastructure to procure, process and market
milk through existing and new institutional structures. The share of the
organized sector is proposed to be increased from 30 percent today to 65
percent ensuring the supply of quality milk to consumers.16
India remained the largest milk producing country in 2007-08 with a share
close to 15 percent of world milk production. However, a combination of factors, led
by high GDP growth in particular has led to a rapid increase in the domestic demand
for milk. Producer prices for milk continued to increase leading to a corresponding
rise in consumer prices.20
Recognizing the importance of increasing productivity, NDDB provided a
range of technical and managerial services, including establishing standards and
protocols for quality bull and semen production. It also funded the production of
genetically evaluated bulls through progeny testing, expansion of door-step artificial
insemination (AI) services, ration balancing amongst other services.7
This clearly indicated that dairy industry is moving towards the right
direction but increase in milk production and the availability of milk for processing
on various scales i.e. small and large scales, call for product diversification.
Not only increasing urbanization means greater consumerism, but with the
rapid spread of the modern communication systems like television in the rural areas
and ever increasing emphasis on advertisements, the consumption pattern for dairy
products is rapidly changing all over the country.
In order to produce quality dairy products, microbiological quality of milk
has to be improved considerably both at farm level and the processing units. More
33
chilling are to be installed for prompt cooling of raw milk at the site of production.
Imparting of proper education to the workers at the farm level is envisaged for
maintaining proper hygienic conditions. Packaged dairy products will have
expanding markets. There is a need to search/develop bio-degradable packaging
material for dairy products since changing life styles especially among urban
population will necessitate production of large quantities of prepared or ready-to-use
food products containing dairy ingredients. Health dairy foods are likely to
command a large share of the food market.12 With the increasing purchasing power
of the urban middle class, value added products will occupy a key position in dairy
products range. The economy of the country has been thrown open to global market.
In the light of recent developments, the dairy plants involved in the processing of
milk and manufacture of dairy products would be required to exploit the
international markets which are possible by stringent control on the quality of dairy
products so that the product become competitive in the international market.
India has the largest population of milch animal in the world. It constitutes
more than 50 percent of the cattle in the world. Unlike other milk producing
countries, 54 percent of India’s milk comes from buffaloes, which is endowed with
unique processing qualities. Buffalo milk production is advantageous to India
because buffalo milk is especially appropriate for commercially important dairy
products such as cheese, Casein, Cream, Paneer, Khoa etc.18 India may emerge as
the leading supplier of these products in the world market. Indian dairy industry has
to derive maximum benefits of the uniqueness and positive virtues of buffalo milk to
obtain the competitive edge in the global dairy market. Most of the countries in Asia
and Africa are large importers of dairy products and therefore these regions are
emerging as important dairy export markets. Realizing the nutritional importance of
milk in the dietary regimen the consumption of milk and milk products is increasing
in these countries.
34
2.18 Prospects for Indian Dairy Industry –
All the countries in South Asia, except India, are net importers of milk and
milk products. Bangladesh and Shrilanka are major importers, their imports in 2001
was 2.55 MT and 4.88 MT respectively. In the West Asian region, countries like
Iran, Iraq, Syria, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and other countries produce small quantity of
milk and meet their requirements mainly through imports. This is where opportunity
lies. During the past two years, the Asian countries accounted for almost ¼th of
world ‘Cheese’ imports, more than half of world ‘Whey’ and almost 2/3rd of world
‘Lactose’ imports. India has prospect to tap the export market for these products in
the above mentioned countries. A major market for the Indian milk based sweets is
fastly developing in overseas. Large population of Indian subcontinent origin settled
in Ocean, Middle East, Western Europe and North America and they represent
lucrative export market. An advantage of this niche market can be taken by
developing dairy products of Indian ethnic origin and also by meeting the quality
standards required for the global market.17
Strengths -
1) Demand is optimistic with the growth in population and increased incomes.
2) Profit margins are reasonable for milk products; higher margins are possible
for quality products.
3) Product mix can be extended. Milk is known for generations to offer variety
of products. The potential is yet to be fully exploited a dairy enterprise can
keep on adding to its product line.
4) Raw material i.e. milk is available in abundant
5) Professionally – Trained managers and technicians available to meet the
challenges.
35
6) Newer technologies for product and process know how available with
national level institution.
Weaknesses -
1) Milk and Milk products are perishable in nature.
2) In spite of various programmes implemented to raise the productivity of
milch animals, there are millions of cows and buffaloes which have very low
yields.
3) Smaller quantities of milk being available over a wide area with woes of bad
roads and inadequate transportation facilities make milk procurement
problematic.
4) The ever rising cost of diesel has increased the distribution costs. As a result,
milk and milk products are distributed in areas that are uneconomical to
cater.
5) Competition is becoming tough. But then competition has to be faced as a
ground reality on merit. The market is large enough for newcomers to carve
out their niche.
Opportunities –
Innovation is the Key Word to add value into a product in its composition,
health benefits, packaging & presentation. Following are potential areas of value
addition.
1) Products like Shrikhand, Paneer, Khoa, Lassi, Ice creams, Flavoured milk,
dairy Sweets etc. offer good flexibility in the market place along with
opportunities in brand building.
2) Mass production of indigenous milk based sweets in dairy plants can tap the
growing demand for them.
3) Cultured products like Dahi, Yoghurt and Cheese lend further strengths.
4) There are opportunities in milk proteins through casein and caseinates and
other dietary proteins for domestic marketing and exports.
5) Infant foods, designer milk and milk products for niche market like low
calorie, low fat, cholesterol free, sugar free etc.
36
6) Efforts to exploit export potential are on. Already several organizations in
the co-operative and private sectors are successfully exporting to
Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nigeria & the Middle East. As world trade is
opening up, opportunities will increase tremendously for the export of dairy
products if quality standards are met.
Threats –
1) Non-organized sector occupies a pride of place in the industry. An
organized consumer awareness campaign is required to tackle this threat and
educate consumers about the safety of milk and milk products they
consume.
2) At the Government level, strict vigilance is required to curb the import of
substandard, low priced milk products as well as precautions against their
dumping which can otherwise create a big threat.

infrastructure and putting in place relevant institutional mechanism for marketing
and branding, export of milk and milk products.
There have been hardly any appreciable research & development (R & D)
efforts in the processed and packaging technology especially for Indian sector. Also,
there has not been any large scale effort in marketing branded Indian Milk products.
The development of appropriate technology for improving the productivity and
reducing the cost of milk at the farm level such as cooling, avoiding contamination,
machine milking of high yielder, have not been addressed on an appropriate required
scale.
The goal for dairy development in the Eleventh five Year Plan would be to
achieve a growth rate of at least 5 percent per annum. The working group on Animal
Husbandry & Dairying for the Eleventh Five Year Plan has an investment of Rs.8,
000 crores.

India is a low cost milk producer due to the inexpensive maintenance and feeding
costs associated with local cow breeds. Dairy production is an important direct and
supplementary source of income for around 75 million rural families, which
accounts for around 98 percent of total milk production. The top ten milk producing
states are Uttar Pradesh, Rajsthan, Punjab, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra,
Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Tamil Nadu and Haryana. They account for more than 80
percent of India’s milk production.1
With the advent of better technology and penetration of organized retail into the
Indian markets, the dairy industry in India has been able to bring in the ethnic as
well as exotic product offerings to the markets. The demand for pure milk has
moved a long way from bottled milk to high quality tetra pack UHT milk with
increased shelf life and quality.18
Dairy cooperatives account for major share of processed liquid milk marketed
in the country. Milk is processed and marketed by 170 milk producer’s cooperative
unions, which federate into 15 state cooperative milk marketing federations. The
38
organized sector still remains a minor stakeholder and handles about 20 percent of
milk whereas the unorganized sector still controls 80 percent of the industry. Indian
dairy industry faces challenges at different levels, these are as follows-
39
Issues and challenges for marketing -
1. Majority of the market is still unorganized – The milk market in India still
faces the challenge of getting organized. The unorganized market makes it
competes with the organized market in relation to prices.
2. Acceptability of consumer base – A large fraction of the consumer base in
India is yet to accept the clean milk from organized dairies due to higher costs.
The mindset of buying fresh whole milk from the milkman is still prevalent in
the Indian consumers.
3. Lack of transparent pricing system – There is no specific minimum support
price of the milk in the system which makes it unremunerative for the farmers.
4. International competition – The Indian dairy industry faces challenges from
the international dairy market. Indian as a signatory to the World Trade
Organization (WTO) is obligated to open its milk and milk products market to
international dairy companies.
