Assignment on milk production in India
Milk production system during 1970:
In 1970 white revolution was started in India, which included the organization of small holder
dairy farms under a three tier cooperative system for organized production which are
procurement, processing and marketing of milk.
In the procurement procedure small dairy farmers used to earn money by selling their milk to
cooperative societies constructed in their villages. The cooperative societies in turn used to check
any kind of adulteration done with the milk produced, fat content of the milk, hygiene etc.
Before the introduction of cooperative societies in different villages these diary farmers used to
sell their milk to various milk vendors who in turn used to cheat these farmers in terms of
money. After proper quality check the cooperative societies used to send barrels of milk through
mini trucks to a nearby milk factory for further processing.
The processing at the milk factories included various parameters and processes which ensured
the quality at each and every step.
