Ø Coops, women, farmers scripted dairy success story: PM…………… [  ET – 13 Sept 2022  ]

Extract :

 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday lauded the role of small farmers, cooperatives and women in making India the world's largest producer of milk and the country's dairy sector a success.

India's dairy sector, which gives employment to 80 million families, is characterised by not mass production but "production by the masses", the prime minister said in his inaugural address at International Dairy Federation World Dairy Summit 2022 in Greater Noida.

"India's dairy sector is characterised by 'production by masses' more than 'mass production'. India is the largest milk-producing country on the basis of the efforts of these small farmers with one, two or three cattle. This sector provides employment to more than eight crore families in the country," the prime minister said.

 

“ Women are the real leaders of India’s dairy sector.

 

Over a third of the members of Dairy Cooperatives are women… women account for 70 % of the work force in this segment “

 

Size of the Indian Dairy Sector stands at more than Rs 8.5 lakh*crore , which is more than the combined value of wheat and rice produced in the country

You have rightly pointed out that Women are the “ unsung heroines “ of the dairy sector.
