डेयरी सप्लाई चेन का पुराना ढांचा टूट रहा है — और यह अच्छी बात है दशकों से भारत की डेयरी सप्लाई चेन एक ही तरह से चलती रही है: किसान → बिचौलिया → थोक व्यापारी → उपभोक्ता। हर कदम पर मार्जिन कटता रहा, और किसान के हाथ में जो बचा, वह उसकी मेहनत के अनुपात में कभी नहीं था। लेकिन डिजिटल मार्केटप्लेस इस पुराने ढांचे को बदल रहे हैं — और यह बदलाव सिर्फ तकनीक का नहीं, पूरी व्यवस्था का है। --- समस्या: जानकारी की कमी सबसे बड़ा नुकसान है एक डेयरी किसान को अक्सर यह नहीं पता होता कि उसके जिले से 100 किलोमीटर दूर उसी दिन दूध या पशु की क्या कीमत चल रही है। वह स्थानीय बाजार पर निर्भर रहता है, जहाँ कीमत तय करने का अधिकार उसके पास नहीं होता। यही सूचना की खाई — information gap — बिचौलियों को ताकत देती है और किसान को कमजोर करती है। डिजिटल मार्केटप्लेस इस खाई को पाटते हैं। जब किसान ऑनलाइन प्लेटफॉर्म पर आता है, तो उसे रियल-टाइम में यह दिखता है कि खरीदार कौन हैं, वे क्या चाहते हैं, और किस कीमत पर सौदा हो सकता है। --- अंतर्दृष्टि 1: सीधा संपर्क, बेहतर सौदा जब एक पशु व्यापारी या डेयरी उद्यमी किसी ऑनलाइन मार्केटप्ले...

भारतीय डेयरी उद्योग, जिसे श्वेत क्रांति के नाम से भी जाना जाता है, वैश्विक स्तर पर अपनी पहचान बना रहा है। इस उद्योग में प्रतिस्पर्धा बढ़ने के साथ ही, दूध उत्पादन बढ़ाने के वैज्ञानिक तरीकों को अपनाना अत्यधिक महत्वपूर्ण हो गया है। यह लेख उन तरीकों पर रोशनी डालता है जो दूध उत्पादन को बढ़ाने में सहायक हो सकते हैं। 1. पोषण प्रबंधन गायों और भैंसों के लिए संतुलित आहार अत्यधिक महत्वपूर्ण है। उनके आहार में प्रोटीन, खनिज और विटामिन की सही मात्रा शामिल होनी चाहिए। - उदाहरण : एक छोटे डेयरी किसान ने अपने पशुओं के आहार में हरे चारे, सूखे चारे और खनिज मिश्रण का संतुलित उपयोग किया, जिससे दूध की गुणवत्ता और मात्रा में वृद्धि हुई। 2. आनुवंशिक सुधार उच्च दूध उत्पादक नस्लों का चयन और उनके क्रॉस-ब्रीडिंग से दूध उत्पादन में सुधार किया जा सकता है। - उदाहरण : एक ग्रामीण सहकारी ने उच्च उत्पादकता वाली होल्स्टीन नस्ल के साथ स्थानीय नस्लों का क्रॉस-ब्रीडिंग किया, जिससे उत्पादन में 20% की वृद्धि देखी गई। 3. स्वास्थ्य प्रबंधन पशुओं की नियमित स्वास्थ्य जांच और टीकाकरण से बीमारियों को रोका जा सकता है, जो दूध उत्पादन ...

India had come a long way from being deficit in milk production to being an exporter of milk now. It was the vision of Verghese Kurien that the country, under Operation Flood, became not only self-sufficient in milk production but also exported it. There was a time before 1970 when the country used to import milk. It was now the largest producer of milk in the world. It was due to milk production that farmers were able to lead a dignified life in the country. The country must now usher in a new era of development for the dairy sector, by building procurement infrastructure in milk deficit states and adopting appropriate technology in these regions. World Milk Day was established by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) on June 1, 2001, to recognize the importance of milk as a global food. This day provides an opportunity to know the importance and benefit of milk with regards to health and nutrition and the importance of the dairy sector in the global economy. This sector also ...

India has a large and growing animal husbandry and dairy industry, with many opportunities for investors. Here are some potential areas to consider: Dairy processing: India is the world's largest milk producer, but its processing capacity is still relatively low. Investing in dairy processing plants can be a lucrative opportunity, particularly in areas with high milk production. Animal feed production: With a growing animal husbandry industry, there is increasing demand for high-quality animal feed. Investing in animal feed production can be a good way to tap into this demand. Breeding and genetics: India's animal husbandry industry is still relatively undeveloped in terms of breeding and genetics. Investors could consider funding research and development in this area, or investing in companies that are already working on breeding and genetics. Meat processing: India is the world's second-largest producer of meat, and also has a significant poultry industry. Investing in me...
