EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF SGSY SPECIAL PROJECT
Organizational back ground
Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers Union Limited, popularly known as
Amul dairy, Anand has been engaged in Animal husbandry and dairying
activities to improve upon the socioeconomic status and communitydevelopment of villages since 1946. As on date Amul is collecting on an
average 0.8 M liters of milk per day from 974 cooperative societies. In the
process of milk collection Amul makes a daily payment of Rs.70 lakhs to its
farmer milk producers. Due to its core competency, Amul, over the years has
built its brand image as a model co-operative in dairy sector.
Proposal
The project proposal aims at increasing monthly income of BPL familiesthrough the practices of Animal husbandry and dairying. Milch animals
comprising of crossbred cows and buffaloes shall be given to 7500 identified
BPL families. In order to make the project viable and to have long term
sustainability, various support services such as artificial insemination, fodder
development, creating infrastructure facilities for chilling milk at village level,
training and other linkages are built-in in the proposed project to generate
assured income for the beneficiaries/ target groups.
Objectives
1. To provide round the year assured income through dairying to identifiedBPL families.
2. To create avenues for self employment.3. Skill up gradation of women and youth through training.4. To improve the income level and overall socioeconomic status of individual
families and village.

SPECIAL SGSY PROJECT ON
IMPROVING SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITIONS OF BPL FAMILIES
OF KHEDA DISTRICT THOUGH DAIRYING AND ANIMAL
HUSBANDRY PRACTICES.
Conceptual background of the project
Amul Dairy, established in 1946 with a modest beginning of milk collection
(250 liters per day) continued its march towards growth and expansion. Today
the dairy collects about 0.8 million litters of milk per day from its 550,000
farmer members with an annual turnover of 468 crore (2001-2002). Products
manufactured include different types of baby food, dairy whitener, milk
powder, butter, clarified fat, liquid milk products, cheese, chocolates, Bread
spread, malted milk food and cattle feed.
Through its 5 decades of journey, the organization has ensured continued
customer service and care by offering quality products meeting customer's
satisfaction right from employees to the consumer of products and established
itself as market leader and a brand to reckon with.
The main objective of the organization is to provide good remunerative price
for milk round the year to its farmer producer members to improve their
socioeconomic status.
Amul Dairy ensured formation of Primary Cooperative Societies in each village
to collect milk from member producers and supply to the Union. Today there
are 974 such societies, which collect milk from about 550,000 member
producers.
Amul Dairy provides round the clock veterinary services to its milk producers.
In order to maintain animals in good health and nutrition, the Union
manufactures and supplies about 600 metric tons of high quality by-pass cattle
feed daily.
When Amul started Cooperative movement, majority of villages in the then
Kheda District had no source of continuous income other than the income
generated from agricultural produce.
Today after 50 years of continuous intervention and development of sustainable
diary practices, Amul could establish milk collection societies in 974 villages
and the overall growth achieved today is summarized as under.
8/14/2019 Special Sgsy Project On
7/44
Number of families / people living below poverty line 1,65,855
Number of villages has schools 100% villages
Literacy rate 86% in Male
57% in Female
(An increase by 43 %)
Number of villages having community halls 73%Per capita income Urban Rs. 5600 pm
Rural Rs.3200 pm
No. of villages has access to public transport 92%
No. of families entirely dependent on milk animals 69%
The Cooperative movement has brought out immense socioeconomic changes
in all villages by improving overall living standards. With a milk collection of
0.80 million litters per day, every day about Rs. 70 Lakhs is being disbursed
back to these 974 villages. Such is the cash flow that every family/milkproducers get money daily for the milk supplied by them. Most of the village
cooperative societies have constructed their own building for milk collection
activities, laid approach roads and constructed schools/ community halls
through the income generated from milk.
As the system grew, Amul started paying competitive returns to farmers by
introducing various programs such as inducting high breed milch animals,
artificial insemination techniques, various milk enhancement input and health
care services, efficient transportation system to bring down the rate of milk
spoilage, introduction of chilling at source concept (installation of bulk cooling
units at village level), improvement in animal treatment system, various
intervention programs to produce clean milk from time to time.
Inspite of such massive and continuous developmental efforts, as per current
estimates there are about 55.64 % (1,65,855 BPL families as on 1st
September
2001) families live below poverty line. Of 1,65,855 BPL families 31,935 BPL
families are marginal land holders, given a chance to maintain 2 milch
animals their status could be improved and brought to above poverty line.
Further introduction of bulk cooling units, timely veterinary services, providing
high yielding animals, farming supplements, training and intervention
programs, the socioeconomic status of the village as a whole and individual
family in particular could be improved.

Since Amul has experience, expertise and technical know-how, it is possible to
bring socioeconomic changes and overall living standards of the target
beneficiaries through this proposed project. The proposed project aims at
providing income generating asset of 2 milch animals to the BPL beneficiaries
thereby creating avenues for assured income and employment. This project is
being considered as a special project because it has included all the forward and
back ward linkages in the scheme. Besides giving productive asset for incomegeneration the project also envisages creating long term activities for its
sustainability. The project activities like fodder development for regular feeding
of animals, breeding facility for the multiplication of stock, quality retention of
milk through chilling milk at source, provision of veterinary services,
marketing of entire milk through milk society and training for the proposed
beneficiaries.
Project objectives
The objectives of the project are envisaged as under.
1. To provide an opportunity for round the year assured income to 7500 BPLfamilies through animal husbandry activities.
2. Creating self employment, employment opportunities to BPL youth andwomen
3. Train BPL beneficiaries and identified members for upgradation of theirskill to manage the given asset for getting optimum return.
4. To bring the BPL families and target groups above poverty line throughspecific interventions.
5. To sustain the productive assets given to the BPL beneficiaries by creatingand strengthening the existing infrastructure facilities

Strategy for implementation of the proposed project
The strategy of implementing the project has been divided under three
categories at three different stages of operation under cooperative setup.
Category I: Bringing individual families who are holders of marginal land,
living below poverty line under the program. Such identified families will be
provided with financial support to buy milch animal, create facilities for animal
rearing, provide veterinary services and provide basic facilities such as drinking
water to the beneficiary and animals. This will improve the socioeconomic
conditions of individual family living under BPL.
Category- II: Villages having Cooperative societies collecting milk in cans
will be brought under the program to provide them bulk chilling units, better
transportation facilities, create additional infrastructure to improve the
performance. This will improve the economic conditions of the society and
such benefit when passed on to its affiliated members, overall improvement in
the village takes place.
Category III: Amul has basic/ well developed infrastructure in animal
husbandry, dairying, milk procurement, processing technology and marketing.
Amul will help in providing technological inputs, extend veterinary services,
train people thus to improve milk yield and economic returns to BPL family.

1 Installation of Bulk
chilling units in thetarget villages
This will help in chilling the milk at source within
1-2 hours of milking period. Such facility will prevent milk spoilage, quality deterioration and
control microbial development. Currently the
Union pays premium to milk based on microbial
load. This will help societies generating additional
income which will be economically beneficial to
the society and milk producers. Also this will help
in increasing the shelf life of milk(Annex 4)
2 Make available
drinking waterfacilities through
creation of Bore-
well and pump
house in the project
villages.
In most of the villages, water availability is a
perennial problem. This leads to less availability ofwater for drinking, house hold cleaning and animal
maintenance.
Providing water facilities through bore well will
help the entire village to have continuous source
for drinking water, cleaning and also able to
maintain milch animals.
This will help in generation of income and overall
economic development of the village (Annex 5)3 Provide Stainless
steel (SS) cans to
societies
Stainless steel cans are easily cleanable, rugged and
withstand rough handling. Since Aluminum cans
currently under use are not capable of withstanding
rough handling leading to denting. Cleaning of
cans having such dents is difficult and is a source
of contamination. (Annex 6)

The Union started monitoring bacterial load of
milk in about 200 villages to pay incentives on
milk meeting the levels fixed. Initially about 30%
societies were meeting the microbial requirements.
However, after one year of monitoring, currently
about 65% societies meet the standard on
microbial requirements.
It is proposed to bring all village cooperatives
under this microbial monitoring and incentive
program.
This will help in societies getting extra income,
improve the quality of milk and good quality of
final products.

Bench mark survey indicators:
The bench mark indicators such as present monthly family income, feeding
pattern, social needs, saving pattern are to be studied before and after project
implementation. Both indicators shall be compared.
Raw material supply
Milch animals, cattle feed, fodder seeds, farm implements will be made
available in the identified target villages.
Marketing arrangement of the produce
Although there exist round the year marketing facility in all proposed target
area through AMUL village dairy Co-operatives, it is felt that to enhance milk
marketing from the remote project villages to urban areas, installation of Bulk
chilling units at village level and transportation of milk could be done byproviding stainless steel milk cans in. This will not only retain the milk quality
and also minimize the sourage of milk.
Animal Purchase Committee
A purchase committee be formed consisting of representatives from Amul,
DRDA and AH Department. As a matter of policy, all animals will be
purchased from outside of district.
Projected Milk Production
Through making available of 15000 milch animals, the projected daily milk put
and input to the Union will be 0.5 LLPD This will increase the total turnover of
the Union with generation of additional benefits to the societies and member
producers.
Benefits/ Impact of the project
The projected benefits of the projects are listed below:
1. Regular and assured monthly income of Rs.3800 per BPL beneficiary.2. Self employment generation (7500 families) and BPL youth though the
project.
3. Skill up-gradation of the target BPL families.

5. Cash flow from urban area to rural area by selling of milk regularly by thetarget families.
6. Improvement in living standards of families and their children due toincrease in per capita income.
7. Increase in literacy levels.8. The rural migration could be minimized by the attempt.9. Creation of self sustainable rural based system will be created after project is
implemented.
10.The infrastructure facilities created under this project implementation willserve as a model for the others to follow.
11.Social and economical improvement of women beneficiary.Risk factors affecting the project
The following risk factors are foreseen at present which are normally seen with
other such Animal husbandry projects.
1. Animal Disease/ out break leading to loss of production: To tide overthis risk adequate vaccination for the animal and elaborate health care
systems are available with AMUL shall be made available as preventive /
corrective measures.
2. Death of productive Animal: Insurance cover shall be given to all assetsincluding the animals so that the risk is adequately covered.
3. Animal husbandry is agriculture based enterprise and dependent on monsoonand good crop production. In absence of good monsoon the project may
suffer. To minimise this risk AMUL has 600 Mt per day concentrated cattle
feed manufacturing plant. The cattle feed is being sold at affordable price to
member producers through Co-operative societies.
4. Rate of Inflation: Cost component has been calculated for each itemidentified in the project on the basis of prevailing cost at the time ofconceiving the project. Any rise of inflation may hamper the project.
However, additional features have been built in the project and in case of
such unforeseen eventuality; the time on creation of infrastructure facilities
can be minimized.

DEATAILS OF INFRASTRUCTURE TO BE CREATED UNDER THE
PROPOSED PROJECT
Annex 1 - Cattle shed construction
As per Codex code on Hygienic practice for milk and milk products, primary
production practices of milk should ensure that potential microbiologicalhazards from all sources should be minimized to the greatest extent practicable
at this stage of production. It is recognized at international level that the greatest
sources of microbiological hazards are the environment (farm level) and the
milk animals themselves. In order to prevent such potential microbial
contaminants, appropriate animal husbandry practices should be respected and
care should be taken to assure that proper health of the milking animal is
maintained. Further lack of good agricultural, animal feeding, veterinary
practices and inadequate general hygiene of milking personal and aids,
inappropriate milking methods may lead to unacceptable levels ofcontamination with chemical residues and other potential contaminants during
primary production of milk
In order to achieve this, the hygienic code proposed by Codex is as under
1. Areas and premises for milk production - Areas including premises usedfor the production of milk should be designed, situated, maintained in a
manner that minimizes the introduction of hazards into milk. The milking
premises should be constructed in such a manner that it is easy to clean,
proper drain system, with appropriate water facility and be separated andprotected from open environment.
2. Feeding of Animals with consideration given to the end use of milk,forage, and feed for lactating animals should not introduce, directly, or
indirectly, microbiological or chemical contaminants in to milk in amounts
that present an unacceptable health risk to the consumer.
3. Animal holding area - Holding area should be designed in such a way thatis maintained free from accumulation of water, manure, mud, feed residues,prevent entry of other non milking animals.
4. Animal health Milk should come from animals on good health so thatconsidering the end use, it does not affect the safety and suitability of the
end products.
8/14/2019 Special Sgsy Project On
34/44
5. Environmental hygiene Water and other environmental factor should bemanaged in a way that minimizes the potential for the transmission of
hazards in to the milk.
6. Animal treatment Animals should only be treated with veterinary drugspermitted for the specific use and in a manner that will not adversely impact
on the safety and suitability of milk, including adherence to the withdrawalperiod specified.
7. Hygienic milking Milking should be carried out in such a manner thatminimizes contamination of the milk being introduced.
Since the proposed Codex Code on hygienic practice for milk and milk
products will be implemented across the world in coming years, India as
signatory of WTO has no option but to follow the code. Since Amul is a
member of Codex committee, and a premier Cooperative, would like to initiateimplementing the code before it becomes mandatory. Hence appropriate design
has been made to construct proper Cattle shed incorporating requirements of
hygiene code.
The proposed project envisages implementing and complying with such
hygienic requirements atleast in selected villages in order to replicate the same
across the district to achieve clean milk production.
8/14/2019 Special Sgsy Project On
35/44
Annex 2: Developing of individual fodder plots 1/2 acre each
To have sustainable milk production, it is essential to feed the animals with
green fodder till end of the lactation. Since availability of green fodder is only
for few months in a year, the animals have been to largely depend on dry
fodder. Also feeding green fodder directly relates to enhancement of milk
production/ secretion, it is essential to feed the milch animals with green fodderso that the milk yield is not reduced.
It has been envisaged that green fodder cultivation will be done in individual
plots of 0.5 acre area by farmers or where community land is available in
village. The farmers having irrigated land will be encouraged for fodder
development twice in a year. The seeds and fertilizers shall be made available
to them.
Annex 3: Supply of hand chaff cutter to the target beneficiary.
Usually the fodder is placed in its original shape/ size in front of animal. It has
been practically observed that when such fodder is fed to animal, about 20-25%
fodder is not consumed by the animal and is considered as left over. Since the
fodder is placed on floor the left over feed gets contaminated with manure and
is collected along with the manure.
Cutting of fodder to small size and feeding to animal reduces direct wastage of20-25% fodder on feeding. Such wastage loss also leads to economic loss on
feed. When animals fed with such fodder, the dry matter digestibility increases
leading to enhanced milk production. Hence it has been proposed to supply
chaff cutter for two major reasons 1). to reduce the wastage and 2). to improve
the dry matter digestibility thereby enhancing the productivity.
8/14/2019 Special Sgsy Project On
36/44
Annex 4: Installation of Bulk chilling units in the target villages
As per codex code on hygienic practice for milk and milk products, milk should
be collected, transported and delivered without undue delay, and in a manner
that avoids the introduction of contaminants into milk and minimizes the
growth of micro-organisms in the milk.
Proper handling, storage and transportation of milk are important elements of
the system of controls necessary to produce safe and suitable milk and milk
products. Temperature abuse is known to increase the microbiological load of
milk. From milk production through processing of milk should be stored at
appropriate temperatures in order to control the growth or minimize the
development of food safety hazard.
Amul has conducted a study in order to investigate the stages of spoilage ofmilk starting from udder to dairy dock. The milk from the udder has few
hundreds of viable microbial count. The count increases to several thousands
when the milk reaches to collection point that is co-operative society. The
bacteria gets multiplied and by the time un chilled milk collected in cans
reaches to dairy the total microbial count increases to several millions (more
than 10 million count per ml of milk). In order to study the effect of
temperature control/ chilling milk at source, the milk immediately after milking
was chilled to 6-8 degree Celsius temperature. The microbial count of such
chilled milk when received at dairy dock was found to 2-3 million per ml milk.
This indicates that chilling milk at source is another important factor. India
being the tropical country, the environmental conditions favor faster growth of
microorganism in milk and the quality of milk gets deteriorated by the time it
reaches dairy dock. The loss is due to sour / spoiled milk. The concept of
chilling milk at source is in place in all developed countries where the farm size
is about 100 herds. However, in India the milk collection is from millions of
small farmers and extending such facility at farmers doorstep is not practically
viable. Hence Amul in the nineties took initiative to conduct detailed
investigation on quality status of milk starting from milking point to collectioncenters, through transportation and at dairy dock. Based on the results, Amul
introduced the concept of chilling the milk at collection point i.e. at Society
level to less than 6 degree Celsius within 1-2 hours of milking. Today there are
144 societies having such facilities and one third of the total milk is received
from such chilling units in chilled condition.
8/14/2019 Special Sgsy Project On
37/44
The bacterial count of milk from these units is found be less than 2.5 million
per ml when compared to several millions in milk received un-chilled in cans.
Amul is planning to install such bulk cooling units at all viable village
cooperative societies in a phased manner. The units are operated both on
electricity and diesel generators, easy to operate and least expensive in terms of
operating costs.
In order to encourage societies to commission bulk chilling units to improve the
quality of milk, currently the Union pays premium to milk based on microbial
load. This will help societies to generate additional income, which will be
economically beneficial to the society and milk producers. Also this will help in
increasing the shelf life of milk.
Installation of bulk chilling units at society level to retain the quality of milk
will help to achieve immediate economic benefit to the society and long term
benefit to the union in terms of production of good quality end products.Reduction in microbial load will also reduce processing costs (energy) which
lead to long-term economic benefits.
Therefore it has been proposed to add additional 15 bulk chilling units in the
identified target villages.
Annex 5: Make available drinking water facilities through creation of
Bore-well and pump house in the project villages.
In most of the villages, water availability is a perennial problem. This leads toless availability of water for drinking, cleaning of household utensils, and
animal maintenance. Water scarcity is more prominent in areas like Kapadvanj
and Balasinor. In most of the societies in this area water availability for
cleaning the milk collection area, utensils, and cans is meager leading to
improper maintenance of hygienic conditions. Also since the water availability
is restricted cleaning of animals before milking is also observed to be not in
place. All these factors lead to contamination of milk from the milk production
point itself.
Providing water facilities through bore well will help the entire village to have
continuous source of water for drinking water, cleaning and also able to
maintain milch animals. This will become an aid / tool in generation of income
and overall economic development of the village.
Therefore it is proposed in the project to create drinking water facilities at least
in 50 villages.

Annex 6: Provide Stainless steel cans to societies
In developed countries particularly in India traditionally aluminum cans are
being used for transportation of milk from society/collection point to the dairy
dock since last five decades or so. Over a period of usage of aluminum cans, the
cans and lids get dented leading to cracks, leakage and uneven surface. To
prevent leakage the cans are required to be welded. This leaves rough surfaceleads to deposition of milk solids. Such deposits are not easily cleanable and
thus become a source of contamination leading to spoilage of milk.
Stainless steel cans are easily cleanable, can withstand rough handling and not
easily dented.
Since control of microbial hazards right from the source is gaining acceptance
world over in terms of food safety point of view, it becomes mandatory to
introduce all possible control measures that ensures safety of consumers.
Therefore it is proposed to gradually replace aluminum cans with stainless steelcans in phased manner. In order to achieve it is proposed in the project to
introduce 4000 stainless steel cans.
Annex 8: Creation of door step Artificial insemination facility.
In order to have sustainable milk production and continuos income generation it
is essential the animals are made pregnant within 60 days of calving. This will
help in reducing the non-milking period of animals to a minimum period thus
increasing the income of the family leading to faster repayment of loan.
In order to achieve this it is essential to increase number of animals to undergo
artificial insemination process. Small liquid nitrogen containers with frozen
semen doses shall be provided to the milk society personnel so that breeding
facility could be given at the door step of the proposed project villages.
Therefore it has been envisaged to provide small cryo liquid nitrogen container
of 3 L capacity to target villages to create door step breeding facility for the
milk animals of the BPL families.
Such facility reduces cost of AI service, improve the pregnancy rate and milkproduction thereby generating additional income.
Under the proposed project it is projected to create 50 doorstep artificial
insemination centers in the target villages.

Annex 9: Establishment of mobile diagnostic lab for animal health care
At present Amul provides need based services of treating milch animals.
Animals treated only when they are fallen sick this kind of treatment practice is
in place in all the villages since last 50 years. However there is no system of
follow-up of treatment in place. As per Codex code on hygienic practices for
milk and milk products, milk should be drawn from animals that:
i. are identifiable to facilitate effective animal management practicesii. do not show impairment of general state of healthiii. do not show any evidence of infectious diseases transferable to
humans through milk.
The milk cannot carry unacceptable levels of zoonotic agents. Therefore, milk
originating from animals that are unidentifiable in terms of health status,
animals of unknown health status are separated and owners shall keep record of
relevant information with respect to treatment given.
In order to minimize or prevent the introduction of drug residues in milk and
milk products good animal husbandry procedures should be used to reduce the
likelihood of animal disease and thus reduce the use of veterinary drugs. Milk
from animals that are been treated with veterinary drugs that can be transferred
to milk should be discarded until the withdrawal period specified for the
particular veterinary drug has been achieved.
The hygienic code also specifies the eradication of Tuberculosis and Brucellosis
in order to ensure the safety and suitability of the milk and milk products.
To achieve and follow the code it is envisaged to create mobile diagnostic lab.
This facility will aid to quick diagnosis of diseases so that timely and
appropriate treatment to sick animals could be provided. The mobile lab will
also continuously move in villages irrespective of specific demand for routine
checks, analyze drug residues, diagnose and help to eradicate diseases that are
of pathogenic in nature. This will help in controlling the unspecified levels of
drug residues in milk through monitoring of withdrawal period. Timely
treatment will also ensure the reduction in mortality rate of animals particularlyyoung calves. This will also help indirect economic benefit to producers.
The mobile diagnostic lab when put in operation will take care of at least
30,000 animals per year required under emergency conditions apart from
treating animals under routine check.

Annex 10: Monitoring quality of milk for microbial load at milk
procurement point for incentives
As per Codex code of hygienic practice for milk and milk products milk should
be evaluated based on sampling of milk from individual farms or milk
collection centers. It is essential that control measures are applied at primary
production level to prevent microbiological contamination of milk. The initialmicrobial load significantly impacts the performance needed for the
microbiological control measures applied during and after processing. The
safety and suitability of the end product depends not only on the initial
microbiological load and efficiency of the process but also any post-process
growth of surviving organisms and post-process contamination.
Unlike in developed countries where milk is monitored for microbial load
right at farm level and is part of payment system, in India other than analyzing
milk for fat and SNF no such system is in place. Amul after implementingquality management system in combination with food safety management
systems (HACCP) has realized that unless the raw material quality is controlled
at source quality of end products cannot be improved.
As a matter of policy Amul started monitoring bacteriological quality of milk at
society level with effect from December 2000 to collect base line data. The
analysis was restricted to the milk collected from societies having bulk chilling
units. With continuos monitoring the quality of milk and cleaning schedules it
was possible to bring down the microbial count from several millions to less
than 2-4 million/ml milk. However, it was soon realized that unless a kind ofquality management system is introduced at society level continuos monitoring
will have only time-bound effect.
Therefore, as an organizational policy it was decided to implement ISO- 9001
quality management system at society level. Initially 50 societies got certified
for IS0-9001. After observing the improvements in quality of milk in these 50
societies it has been decided to implement ISO-9001 in all the societies. At
present 150 societies have been certified for ISO-9001 and another 100
societies will be certified by May 2003. This is perhaps first time the worldsuch kind of quality management system has been introduced at milk
production level by Amul.

In order to encourage the societies to adopt quality management systems, the
union started monitoring the bacterial load of milk received from the societies
having village chilling units (144) and milk received from societies collecting
milk in cans who have been certified for IS0-9001 (170) to pay incentives on
milk meeting the microbial levels fixed. Initially about 30% societies were
meeting the microbial requirements. However, after one year of monitoring andimplementation of ISO9001, currently about 65% societies meet the standard on
microbial requirements. In the year 2003, the standard on microbial load has
further been revised from 2.5 million count/ml to 2.0 million count/ml milk to
strengthen the quality.
As per our preliminary investigation conducted in the year 1999 on prevalence
of sub-clinical mastitis, several thousand samples of cow and buffalo milk were
analyzed. It was observed presence of sub-clinical mastitis in about 20 percent
population of milch animals suffering from mastitis. Presence of sub-clinicalmastitis in milch animals not only reduces the milk yield but also affect the
product quality. Hence it is essential to monitor the quality of milk not only for
presence of sub-clinical mastitis but also to identify and treat the animal within
minimum possible period.
It is proposed to bring all village cooperatives under this milk quality
monitoring and incentive program. This will help societies to get extra income,
improve the quality of milk and thereby good quality of final products.
In order to achieve this it is essential to have automatic bacteriological analyzer(Bactoscan) to analyze 1000 samples per day for total microbial count and a
Somatic Cell Counter to detect sub clinical mastitis.

2. Milk enhancement through scientific tools
Scientific tools play important role to enhance milk production at minimum
cost. To train BPL youth for better animal husbandry practices, it is proposed to
arrange one-week training program. The training component will includetheory, practical and field visits. There will be conducted to BPL youth in
batches. Ten programs in a year are planned to be conducted.
3. Women leadership development program for BPL family woman.
Leader is a base of revolution; therefore it is proposed that BPL family women
must be trained for leadership for shouldering the larger responsibility. It is
therefore to conduct two days leadership development program in batches. The
training component includes theory, practical, and arranged visits to variousplaces which are managed by women to help them to understand the leadership
requirements much better.

A. Strengthening training center
For effective training, we need to strengthen and create conducive appropriate
training environment. Currently we have training centers established several
years back. However, with the technological advancements, the trainingrequirements have also changed. Therefore, keeping in mind the kind of modern
training requirements, it has been proposed to upgrade the existing training
center with all kinds of ultra modern facilities. New audio visual aids, photo
panels, display boards shall be added to this center. All the trainees shall be
trained by an experience staffs. Facilities for classroom, boarding and lodging,
library, seminar halls for trainees will be created additionally. Presently only 12
farmers are being trained in a batch. By expanding this facility it can
accommodate 45 candidates at a time.
This center will provide specialized training for the target beneficiaries on skill
up gradation on Animal husbandry, A.I training to village BPL youth for self
employment.
This center shall act as farmer's resource center for the entire area. Presently 45
days first aid and artificial training is being provided to the lay inseminator of
villages. Once the proposed center is modernized, the center will conduct
training on Pregnancy diagnosis. This will benefit the proposed beneficiaries to
reduce the inter-calving period.
