Smallholder Dairy Development Program

in Thailand, Myanmar and Bangladesh

The plan, the process,

the people and the impact

“Smallholder Dairy Development in Bangladesh, Myanmar and Thailand: Improving the Bargaining Power and Sustainable Livelihoods through the Enhancement of Productivity and

Market Access in Dairy”

“Enhancing Milk Consumption and Livelihoods through School Milk Programmes Linked to Smallholder Dairy

Operations”

“Asia Dairy Network”

“A glass of Asian Milk a Day for Every Asian Child”

Three closely knit initiatives

A 20% sustainable improvement in milk productivity

Improved market access for 5,000 smallholder milk producers in 6 pilot milk-shed areas;

Improved milk quality in terms of hygiene, fat content, and total bacterial count;

1,000 subsistence smallholders graduated to commercial smallholder milk producers;

Introduction of new technologies for milk processing in order to reduce post-harvest milk losses and improving the shelf-life of milk and dairy products

Establishment of Asian Dairy Network

Up-grading of Chiang Mai DTC to a Regional Dairy Centre

Project outputs

1. Strengthened skills and capacity to develop, implement and monitor intervention strategies developed which are tailored to introduce or expand school milk programmes in targeted rural areas

2. Enhanced support for smallholder dairy development at the national and local level through development/amendment of school milk program

3. Increased dairy production by smallholders in locations where school milk programmes are implemented

4. Increased appreciation in targeted communities for locally produced dairy

• Success story documented

Myanmar:

• 19,329 students (Target of 2,000 students) covered by various school milk

schemes

Key recommendation from SMS Review

A participatory strategy

and action plan for

Myanmar Dairy Sector

Development including

promotion of school milk

schemes

2014 onwards

• In 2014 academic year, School milk schemes continued with the participation of

local and international dairy processors.

• School Milk Foundation set up through donation of private sector, local milk

processors and Myanmar people as seed funding for school milk programme.

• In a recent meeting held in Nay Pyi Taw, local processors, contributors from

foreign companies and well-wishers decided to extend the contribution of school

milk in 2015 – 2016 academic year.

The Story from

Bangladesh

Some features

Review of Thai and Bangladesh experience

Brainstorming and participatory process

More severe infrastructure constraints (specially electricity)

Turbulent socio-political environment

An active civil society and vigilant media – reputational

considerations

Longer planning period – how local? What products? (UHT,

Pasteurized milk, yoghurt, cereal mix?)

Partners and governance

First pilot launched in August 2013 Partners – SDDP and Milk Vita

Target—2000 children in five primary schools

Cold chain extending to schools

Strict SOPS and quality control

Data recording and analysis

Participatory governance – SMSC SMMC

Training of teachers, parents and others in the chain

Second pilot launched in Sathkira

Impact of School Milk Pilot Programme on Physical Growth of

School Children after one year in Shahjadpur Upazilla

Objectively verifiable

indicators (OVI) Achievements and highlights

Reduced post-harvest

milk losses

Bangladesh:

- Contingent on UHT plant repair.

Myanmar:

- Post-harvest milk losses reduced as a result of 4

cooling tanks transferred to MCCs and improved

testing procedures

Thailand:

- Milk rejected at milk processing plants decreased

- Milk quality increased >>> post-harvest milk losses

reduced


Objectively verifiable

indicators (OVI) Achievements and highlights

Improved shelf-life

of processed milk

and dairy products –

75 percent of

processed milk and

dairy products meet

local standards and

regulations.

Bangladesh:

- Processed products and liquid milk emanating from MilkVita

meeting the local standards and regulation

Myanmar:

- 2 local processors approved by FDA

- All participating milk processors meeting standards

Thailand:

- All dairy products meet local standard and regulations


Component 3: Capacity Building & Information Dissemination

1) Asia Dairy Network established

2) Chiang Mai DTC upgraded into a Regional Dairy Training Centre

(RDTC) and SDD capacity building strengthened in all three

countries.

3) Project experiences and lesson learned disseminated.

4) Regional end-of-project workshop.
