The evolution of the dairy sector in India and the stellar role played by dairy cooperatives since the launch of Operation Flood form an integral part of the country’s remarkable growth story after Independence.

The dairy sector assumes a great deal of significance for India on various accounts. As an industry, it employs more than 80 million rural households, with the majority being small and marginal farmers as well as the landless. The cooperative societies have not only made the farmers self-sufficient but have also broken the shackles of gender, caste, religion, and community. Women producers form the major workforce of the dairy sector in the country. The sector is an important job provider, especially for women, and plays a leading role in women’s empowerment.

Indian Dairy Association (IDA): Indian Dairy Association (IDA), the apex body of the dairy industry in India, stands at the forefront of unifying and empowering the dairy sector. Representing a diverse membership base that spans cooperatives, multinational companies, corporate entities, private and educational institutions, as well as government and public sector units, IDA serves as a vital link between dairy producers, professionals, scientists, planners, and educationists.
