HISTORY & DEVELOPMENT

Operation Flood, a programme that Dr Verghese Kurien implemented as chairman of the National dairy Development Board in three phases over a 26-year

11span, created a flood of milk, which eventually led to India becoming the world's largest milk producer, overtaking the US in 1998.

Dr Kurien made innovative use of a World Bank loan, EEC food aid and the internal resources of NDDB to usher in the White Revolution. It was an experiment immortalised by noted filmmaker Shyam Benegal in Manthan (the churning) and one, which Dr Kurien himself put down in black and white as An Unfinished Dream.

Operation Flood: phase 1

During the 1970's, dairy products were piling up as a major surplus in Europe, a phenomenon in which Dr Kurien saw both a threat and an opportunity. In the event of these surpluses being dumped in India at rock bottom prices, it would have prematurely destroyed the fledgling dairy sector of the country.

The large quantities that India was already importing had eroded domestic markets to the point where dairying was not viable. Kurien ingeniously turned this double-edged sword to his advantage and incorporated it as a golden opportunity into the Operation Flood strategy.

He deployed the European surpluses as an investment in building India's dairy industry. In an unprecedented initiative, 126,000 mt of skimmed milk powder and 42,000 mt. of butter oil, obtained from the EEC countries as food aid, was utilised to finance the programme. It was for the first time in the history of economic development that food aid was seen as an important investment resource. Working as an anti-inflationary measure, it provided a buffer stock to stabilize the Indian market, and was used to prime the pump of markets that would later be supplied by domestic production.

Funds generated through sale of these commodities were used in the development of 18 rural milksheds in 10 states and for setting up dairies in the rural hinterlands and in Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata

12And Chennai. This led to a 60-per cent increase in milk production,

which raised from an estimated 20-million mt in 1970 to 32-million metric tones in 1978.

A year-round remunerative market for the milk producers was created and the sale of milk in the major urban demand centres rose by 140 per cent.

During this phase, Operation Flood linked 18 of India's premier milksheds with consumers in India's four major metropolitan cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai.

Operation Flood: phase 2

Impressed by the success of the first phase of the project, the government of India decided to continue with dairy development through cooperatives but on a greatly expanded scale. Operation Flood II, which began in 1981, aimed at building a National Milk Grid linking 136 rural milksheds in 22 Indian states and the centrally-administered Union territories with the urban demand centres in the country and creating the infrastructure required to support a viable dairy industry.

The second phase of the programme was implemented with a World Bank credit of $150 million and commodity assistance from EEC (216,584 mt of SMP, 62, 402 mt of butter oil and 16577 mt of butter) and Rs280.87 crore which NDDB raised out of its own resources during 1985 to 1987.

According to a World Bank audit, of the Rs200 crore that it invested in Operation Flood II, the net return into the rural economy has been a whopping Rs24, 000 crore per year over a period of 10 years, or a total of Rs240, 000 crore in all. No other major development program has matched this input-output ratio.

Operation Flood's Phase II (1981-85) increased the milksheds from 18 to 136; 290 urban markets expanded the outlets for milk. By the end of 1985, a

13self-sustaining system of 43,000 village cooperatives covering 4.25-million milk producers had become a reality. Project year to 140,000 tons by 1989, all of the increase coming from dairies set up under Operation Flood. In this way EEC gifts and World Bank loan helped to promote self-reliance. Direct marketing of milk by producers' cooperatives increased by several million liters a day.

The seed capital rose from the sale of WFP / EEC gift products and World Bank loan had created, by end 1985, a self-sustaining system of 43,000 village cooperatives covering 4.25-million milk producers.

Operation Flood: phase 3

The third phase of Operation Flood, undertaken from 1987 to 1996 aimed at consolidating the gains of the earlier phases. The main focus of the programme was on achieving financial viability of the milk unions/ state federations and adopting the salient institutional characteristics of the Amul

Pattern or Amul Model Cooperatives.

This phase of the programme was funded by a World Bank credit of $365 million, Rs222.6 crore of food-aid (75,000 mt of milk powder and 25,000 mt of butter / butter oil) by the EEC and Rs207.6 crore by NDDB's own resources. At the end of May 1995, Rs1, 578 crore had been invested under the three phases of Operation.

AWARDS

Ramakrishna Bajaj National Qality Award-2003

The Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. has emerged as the top scorer in the service category of the prestigious IMC Ramkrishna

16Bajaj National Quality Award - 2003. The Certificate of Merit was presented at a glittering ceremony held at Mumbai on March 11 by the Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, Dr. Y. V. Reddy.

According to Shri B. M. Vyas, Managing Director, GCMMF, this recognition has once again reiterated GCMMF's commitment to quality and excellence. The biggest strength of GCMMF is the trust it has created in the minds of consumers regarding the quality of its products. GCMMF and its brand Amul stand for guaranteed purity for whatever products it produces, he added.

GCMMF has bagged this award for adopting noteworthy quality management practices for logistics and procurement. Over the years, it has established an efficient supply chain that penetrates even the remotest corners of the country. The information systems of the Federation are comprehensive and include details on product quality, delivery performance, supplier quality, disaster recovery and all essential commercial areas, the citation reads.

The Ramakrishna Bajaj National Quality Award is based on framework and principles almost similar to the Malcolm Baldrige Award that is given by the President of the United States to businesses - manufacturing and service, small and large - and to education and healthcare organizations that apply and are judged to be outstanding in seven areas: leadership, strategic planning, customer and market focus, information and analysis, human resource focus, process management, and business results.

Mr. B M Vyas receives the Qimpro Gold Standard Award

17Qimpro Platinum Standard, the highest individual honour, has in

recent years been awarded to Chandra Mohan, Aditya Birla, Deepak Parekh, F C Kohli, Dr J Irani, Azim Premji, and Kumar Mangalam BirlaA. Qimpro Awards are recognized by the ASQ and the Institute of Quality Assurance, UK.

PRODUCT

AMUL means "priceless" in Sanskrit. The brand name "Amul," from the Sanskrit "Amoolya," was suggested by a quality control expert in Anand. Variants, all meaning "priceless", are found in several Indian languages. Amul products have been in use in millions of homes since 1946. Amul

18Butter, Amul Milk Powder, Amul Ghee, Amulspray, Amul Cheese, Amul Chocolates, Amul Shrikhand, Amul Ice cream, Nutramul, Amul Milk and Amulya have made Amul a leading food brand in India. (Turnover: Rs. 37.74 billion in 2005-06). Today Amul is a symbol of many things. Of high-quality products sold at reasonable prices. Of the genesis of a vast co-operative network. Of the triumph of indigenous technology. Of the marketing savvy of a farmers' organisation. And of a proven model for dairy development.

the 'Anand Pattern' of Development

The mighty Ganges when it sets out on its long and winding journey is but a tiny stream in the Gangotri ranges of the Himalayas. So too is the story of AMUL which inspired the 'Operation Flood' and heralded the White Revolution in this land. It began with two village co-operatives and 250 litres of milk per day -- anything but a trickle compared to the flood it has become today. Today AMUL collects processes and distributes over 9 lakh litres of milk per day during the peak on behalf of 962 village co-operatives owned by 5.42 lakh farmer members. Further, as Ganga-ma carries the aspirations of generations for moksha, so too AMUL has become the sign and symbol of the aspirations of millions of farmers, and the pattern of liberation and self-reliance for every farmer.

What makes this saga so remarkable? What is so unique about it that it is made a pattern and model for similar endeavors by farmers elsewhere? An awareness among the farmers that grew and matured into a protest movement and the determination to liberate themselves: this is the origin of AMUL.

Over four decades ago, the life of a farmer in Kheda District was very much like that of his counterpart anywhere else in India. His income was derived almost entirely from seasonal crops. The income from milch buffaloes was undependable. The milk marketing system was controlled by private traders and middlemen. As milk is perishable, farmers were compelled to sell milk for whatever they were offered.

Often, they had to sell cream and ghee at throwaway prices. In this situation, the one who gained was the private trader. Gradually, the realization dawned on the farmers that the exploitation by the trader could be checked only if they marketed their milk through their own organization. This realization is what led to the establishment of the Kheda District Co-operative Milk Producers' Union Limited (popularly known as AMUL) which was formally registered on December 14, 1946.

The Kheda Union began pasteurizing milk for the Bombay Milk Scheme in June 1948. An assured market proved a great incentive to the milk producers of the district. By the end of 1948, more than 400 farmers joined in more village societies, and the quantity of milk handled by the

21Union increased from 250 to 5000 litres a day. In the early years, AMUL had to face a number of problems. The response to these provided stimulus for further growth. For example, as the movement spread in the district, it was found that the Bombay Milk Scheme could not absorb the extra milk collected by the Kheda Union in winter, when the production on an average was 2.5 times more than in the summer. Thus, even by 1953, the farmer-members had no assured market for the extra milk produced in winter. They were again forced to sell a large surplus at low rates to the middlemen .

The remedy was to set up a plant to process milk into products like butter and milk powder. A Rs. 5 million plant to manufacture milk powder and butter was completed in 1955. In 1958, the factory was expanded to manufacture sweetened condensed milk. Two years later, a new wing was added for the manufacture of 2500 tons of roller-dried baby food and 600 tons of cheese per year, the former based on a formula developed with the assistance of Central Food Technological Research Institute (CFTRI), Mysore.

It was the first time anywhere in the world that cheese or baby food was made from buffalo milk on a large, commercial scale. Another milestone was the completion of a project to manufacture balanced cattle feed. The plant was donated by OXFAM under the Freedom From Hunger Campaign of the FAO. To meet the requirement of milk powder for the Defense, the Kheda Union was asked by the Government of India in 1963 to set-up additional milk drying capacity.

22A new dairy capable of producing 40 tons of milk powder and 20 tons

of butter a day was speedily completed. It was declared open in 1965. The Mogar Complex where high protein weaning food, chocolate and malted food are being made was another initiative by AMUL to ensure that while it fulfilled the social responsibility to meet the demand for liquid milk, its members were not deprived of the benefits to be had from the sale of high value-added products. The Mogar complex also started manufacturing Amullite a substitute for butter in 1994. Amul has also set up a new Dairy Plant to handle 6.5 lakh liters per day with facilities to produce 60 tonnes of powder and 70 tonnes of butter in a highly automated plant. It has recently set up a 20 MT Cheese plant at Khatraj near Memdabad.

Impressive though its growth, the unique feature of the AMUL sagas did not lie in the extensive use of modern technology, nor the range of its products, nor even the rapid inroads it made into the market for dairy products. The essence of the AMUL story lies in the breakthrough it achieved in modernising the subsistence economy of a sector by organising the rural producers in the area.

True, traditionally dairying was a subsidiary occupation of the farmers of Kheda. However, the contribution to the farmer's income was not as prominent as his attachment to dairying as a tradition handed down from one generation to the next. Low milk yield of animals maintained on the by-products of the farm, together with lack of facilities to market even the little produced, turned the decision to invest in scientific practice of animal husbandry and nutrition, decidedly irrational; the return on the investment as well as the prospects of being able to market the product looked very bleak indeed.

Since its inception, the Kheda Union also believed that the responsibility to collect the marketable surplus of milk should be coupled with the provision of making the production enhancement inputs reach the members. The Kheda Union has thus a full-fledged machinery to provide animal health care and breeding facilities. As early as late fifties, the Union started making

23high quality buffalo semen and the artificial insemination service available to the rural animal population through the village society workers. The Union started its mobile veterinary services to render animal health care at the door steps of the farmers. Probably for the first time in the country, the veterinary first aid service was made available in the villages through trained village-society workers.

The Union's 16 mobile veterinary dispensaries have fully qualified staff. All the villages are visited bi-monthly on a pre-determined day, to provide animal health care. A 24-hour Emergency Service is also available at a fee (Rs.35 for members and Rs.100 for non-members). All the mobile veterinary vans are equipped with Radio Telephones.

The Union runs a semen production centre where it maintains high pedigreed Surti buffalo bulls, Holstein Fresian bulls, Jersey bulls and 50 per cent cross-bred bulls to cater to the need of semen for artificial breeding of buffaloes and cows belonging to the farmer members of the district. Artificial insemination service has become very popular and effective because it regulates the frequency of calving in cows and buffaloes and thus reduces their dry period. A balanced feed concentrate is manufactured in the Union's Cattle Feed Plant and sold to the members through the societies at cost price.

The system succeeded mainly because it provides an assured market at remunerative prices for producers' milk, besides acting as a channel to market the production enhancement package; and does not disturb the agro-system of the farmers. It also enables the consumer an access to high quality milk and milk products. Contrary to the traditional system, when the profit of the business was cornered by the middlemen, the system ensured that the profit goes to the participants for their socio-economic upliftment and common good. The Union looks after policy formulation, processing and marketing of milk and provision of technical inputs to enhance milk yield of animals: artificial insemination service, veterinary care, better feeds and the like, all through the village societies.

The village society also facilitates the implementation of various production enhancement, and member education programmes undertaken by the Union. The staff of the village societies has been trained to undertake the veterinary first-aid and the artificial insemination activities on their own.

The significance of the Kheda experiment

A system, which involves participation of people on such a large magnitude, does not confine itself to an isolated sector. The ripples of its turbulence affect other areas of the society as well. So is true with this co-operative. It has not confined itself to milk alone. The co-operatives in the villages of Kheda are contributing to various desirable social changes such as:

The yearly elections to the management committee and its chairman by the members are making the participants aware of their rights and the process to elect right men for right jobs.

Perpetuating the voluntary mix of the various ethnic and social groups twice-a-day for common cause and mutual betterment has resulted in eroding many social disequilibria: high-low, rich-poor, and the elites-marginalized all seem to co-operate for a common cause.

Live exposure to various modern technologies and their application in day-to-day life has not only made them aware of these developments but also made it easier for them to adopt them for their betterment. One might wonder whether the population that knows almost everything about impregnating a cow or buffalo, through their knowledge of artificial insemination, is also equally aware of the similar process in the humans and work towards planning it.

More than 900 village co-operatives have created jobs for nearly 5000 people in their own villages -- without disturbing the socio-agro system -- and thereby the exodus from the rural areas has been arrested to a greater extent.

The income from milk has contributed to their household economy. Besides, women, who are the major participants, now have a say in the home economy.

Independent studies by various individuals and institutions have shown that as high as 48 per cent of the income of the rural household in Kheda District is being derived from dairying. Since dairying is a subsidiary occupation for the majority of the rural population, such incomes are helping these people not only to liberate themselves from the strangleholds of poverty but also to elevate their social status.

25Amul’s success led to the creation of similar structures of milk producers

in other districts of Gujarat. They drew on Amul's experience in project planning and execution. Thus the 'Anand Pattern' was not created in Kheda district but in Mehsana, Sabarkantha, Banaskatha, Baroda and Surat districts, where even before the Dairy Board of India was born, farmers and their leaders carried out empirical tests of the hypotheses that explained AMUL's success. In these districts, milk producers and their leaders experienced significant commonalties and found easy and effort-less ways to replicate AMUL's success in their respective areas. This led to the creation of the National Dairy Development Board with the clear mandate of replicating the 'Anand pattern' in other parts of the country, initially in the dairy sector but at a later stage in oilseeds, fruit and vegetables, salt, and tree sectors.

Looking back on the path traversed by AMUL, the following features make it a pattern and model for emulation elsewhere. AMUL has been able to:

produce an appropriate blend of the policy makers farmers board of management and the professionals: each group appreciating its roles and limitations;

bring at the command of the rural milk producers the best of the technology and harness its fruit for betterment;

provide a support system to the milk producers without disturbing their agro-economic systems;

plough back the profits, by prudent use of men, material and machines, in the rural sector for the common good and betterment of the member producers; and

Even though, growing with time and on scale, it has remained with the smallest producer members. In that sense, AMUL is an example par excellence, of an intervention for rural change.

Dr. V. Kurien, the then Chairman, National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), Anand and the erstwhile Indian Dairy Corporation (IDC) conceived the idea of establishing an institute for training rural managers in the context of Operation Flood. Dr. Kurien was convinced, on the basis of his experience as the Chief Executive Officer of the Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers’ Union Ltd., popularly known as AMUL, that professional management of

26co-operatives being established all over the country under Operation Flood was essential to their success. He also realized fairly early on that management graduates trained at Indian Institutes of Management and other schools would not fit the bill. He was a Member of the Board of Governors of the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA) and had approached Prof. Ravi J Matthai, the then Director, IIMA, and its Board to see whether IIMA would consider training rural managers for Operation Flood Projects. He was told that IIMA graduates would not fit the bill. This was when he resolved to establish a new institution for this rather unique task. The rest is history.

Operation Flood II had provided Rs 50 lakhsa for manpower development. IDC was the funding body and NDDB the implementing agency. NDDB established a Centre for Management and Consultancy in Rural Development in 1979. This Centre was the precursor of the Institute of Rural Management, Anand (IRMA). Dr. Kamla Chowdhry, formerly a professor at IIMA and an adviser to the Ford Foundation, New Delhi in 1979, suggested to Dr. Kurien in a brief document that this Centre should become a full-fledged, independent, national institute for it to do justice to the task at hand. NDDB accepted this proposal in principle and mounted a search for personnel to start and run the proposed institute.

Dr. Shreekant Sambrani, at that time the Chief of Research Bureau of the Economic Times, Mumbai, and formerly professor at IIMA, was the first person to be invited to join the proposed institute as a Senior Professor. A Management Committee under the chairmanship of Dr. Kamla Chowdhry, with Mr G M Jhalaa, Managing Director of IDC, and Shri VC Sood of NDDB as members and Dr. Sambrani as the Member-Secretary (the operating head of the Institute) were constituted. The Committee, through the Chairman and the Member-Secretary, was responsible for completing the substantive tasks as well as formalities leading to the establishment of the Institute. This was in July 1979. The target date to select the first batch of students was July 1980. The funds provided for manpower development under Operation Flood II became the seed money for the Institute. The core IRMA personnel occupied a few small offices in the administrative block of NDDB. The first tasks were Identification of a suitable location for the Institute, recruitment of faculty, programme design, student intake, and numerous formalities connected with establishing a new institute.

27As the staff strength increased, larger office space became necessary. The Diagnostic Laboratory Complex of NDDB had just been completed across the road from its main campus. NDDB graciously delayed its plans for its use and offered it to the Institute instead. This remained the Institute’s home until its own campus was ready.

The Institute of Rural Management, Anand Society was registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, and the Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950, on December 14, 1979. This became the Institute’s formal Foundation Day, although it had begun functioning some five months earlier. The faculty, mostly new to the teaching profession, plunged into the task of preparing curricula, teaching materials and mastering pedagogical methods with rare energy and gusto. New case studies based on co-operatives were prepared with a great deal of encouragement from the organizations themselves. The admissions process, comprising a competitive examination and personal interviews, was modeled after similar procedures used by IIMS, although the faculty tried to consciously inject a pronounced “rural bias” in the test materials and interview questions.

The admissions announcement evoked a good response from more than 2,000 applicants. The admission process was completed by April 1980. The first batch of 54 (later reduced to 48 due to various reasons) entered the Institute on June 30, 1980, right on schedule. It was in the fitness of things that the late Mr. Tribhuvandas Patel, the Founder-Chairman of Amul, welcomed the first batch of students to the Institute. The students were housed in the Farmers’ Hostel of NDDB.

An intensive orientation programme, which took the incoming batch in small groups to live in villages and around Anand in the first week, was the innovative feature of the Institute. This created not only an appreciation of the rural reality among the largely urban students, but also a sense of belonging and commitment to the rural organisations they were later to serve.

The Institute had identified a 24-ha. Plot of land adjoining the main NDDB campus, which was then a part of the tobacco research farm of the Gujarat Agriculture University as the most suitable one for its own campus, after considering several alternative sites, including one next to the Hindustan Packaging plant at Itola. The Government of Gujarat agreed to donate it to the Institute. The Institute took possession of it in early 1981,

28with the entire population of students and staff planting trees on it. Mr. Achyut Kanvinde took up the task of designing a unique campus.

In the meanwhile, Dr. Kurien had met officials of the Swiss Development Cooperation (SDC) during a scheduled visit to Berne, Switzerland. The SDC officials took an interest in the proposed Institute and agreed, in principle, to provide financial support to it. A proposal seeking a grant of 15.4 million Swiss francs was submitted to the Government of India. The late Mr. N Rajgopal, the then Joint Secretary, Department of Agriculture and Cooperation, Ministry of Agriculture, ensured that the government approved the proposal just days before the then Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi delivered the first IRMA Convocation Address in February 1982.

With the generous Swiss grant, the IRMA campus construction work progressed rapidly, with the Engineering Division of NDDB supervising it. The work was over in a short time of just two years. The entire IRMA community moved into the new campus in June 1983.

IRMA initially confined its activities to conducting the Post-graduate

Programme in Rural management (PRM), meant to train young persons to take up managerial jobs with rural co-operatives then being established under Operation Flood and the Oilseeds Project of NDDB. The design of the programme was unique. To begin with, it was compressed to one year, and involved a back-and-forth interaction between the field and the classroom. Before the first year was over, however, IRMA faculty extended the duration to two years in consultation with the student body, to allow an even greater role for field modules, which accounted for 40 per cent of the total time, and some more courses. The PRM curriculum was novel in several other respects as well. It had specially designed courses such as rural environment, economics of development, rural markets, rural marketing and farmers’ organizations, which are not part of a conventional MBA programme. While the faculty was acutely aware of the need to create fresh teaching materials and made strenuous efforts to do so, time constraints meant a fair amount of borrowing from IIMA initially. A number of early faculty had strong IIMA links.

Despite the fact that IRMA was established to train managers for the co-operative sector, it was not called the Institute of Co-operative Management. Implicit in this was the recognition that the new institution

29must concern itself with all rural activities, and not just those of formally registered co-operatives. This foresight was amply rewarded when, even in its early years, a variety of rural organizations – co-operatives, NGOs, government and business entities – began to make demands on IRMA. The IRMA Board, always protective of its autonomy even as it acknowledged NDDB’s patronage, warmly welcomed all of them, except private companies, into IRMA’s fold. While private business could seek the services of over 400 business schools in India, there was but one Institute, IRMA, to serve co-operatives, NGOs and people’s organizations. Therefore, it was important that IRMA directed its energies to this grossly under-managed sector. The Institute remained focused on strengthening management of people-centered organizations – those controlled by users of their services – rather than in capital-centered ones – those controlled by capital suppliers. This is how IRMA’s identity began to emerge. The core IRMA operating philosophy continues to be the promotion of a partnership between rural producers and committed professional managers as the basis for sustainable development and social justice in rural India.

India report Part 1: dairy giant walking barefootTiny Brouwers

Published: April 11, 2006

• Each year some 615 billion kg milk is produced world wide, almost 15% of which is produced in India. • with production running at 92 billion kg per annum India is the world’s largest milk producer.

But India is a dairy giant walking barefoot. That is evident from this report on India’s dairy farming and dairy industries. In this enormous country with more than one billion inhabitants, milk is produced from north to south, but primarily in the country’s west. Much of the production is transported to the major population centres in the country’s interior and east. Rising production

35

Pankaj Karna, Corporate Finance director of Rabo India Finance, paints a picture of the Indian dairy sector in short, sharp lines.

‘Production is expected to increase this dairy year to 96 billion kg. At a national level, 57% of the production consists of buffalo milk and 43% of cow’s milk. Each year buffalo milk production rises by 4% and just cow’s milk by just 1.2%. One of the reasons for this is that the Indian buffalo herd is expanding by 1.2% per annum, while the dairy cow herd is decreasing by an average of 1% per year – due in part to the droughts in 2002 and 2004. And, moreover, Indian buffaloes produce more milk than the cows.’

Karna describes India’s unique system of milk production and milk collection; there’s nothing like it anywhere else in the world. No fewer than 70 million households are involved in the production of milk. These are mainly small and even marginal cattle farmers, but also labourers without land, who have at most two dairy cows or buffaloes, tethered near their homes.

Of these 70 million households, 11 million can be characterised as cattle farmers. These are dairy cattle farmers with an average of two cows or buffaloes producing between 10 and 12 litres of milk per day. They are organised into no fewer than 110,000 village dairy co-operatives or Dairy Co-operative Societies (DCSs). These co-operatives set up across India following the Anand Model (read more about the Anand model here>>), collect the milk from their dairy farmers and cool it at 4-6 degrees Celsius. Some of this unpasteurised milk they sell to the village residents. The rest is collected by the travelling Milk Collectors, who take the milk to the co-operative Milk Unions for processing. This industry is organised on a state by state basis. This approach connects the predominately small dairy farmers via their co-operative system directly with the many hundreds of big cities in India. India also has various rivately owned dairy companies. They procure their milk from both milk collection centres in the villages and, in the north-west in particular, from milk traders. These traders are responsible for the quality of the milk they supply. The state of Maharashtra is a case apart because milk production there is subsidised by the government and the government is responsible for the milk collection. The state pays the dairy farmers a higher price than is paid by the state’s processing industry.

3665% unpasteurised

Of India’s total milk production, no less than 65% is consumed unpasteurised. Of this percentage, 44% is consumed in the rural area in which it is produced, meeting the needs of cattle farmers and their families and sold, through the village co-operatives, to others with no cows or buffalo. The remaining 21% of the unpasteurised milk is sold to urban consumers. Of the 35% of the milk production that is pasteurised, 22% is processed by the unorganised dairy sector. Most of this milk is used to make sweets. This is done in ‘halwai’, workshops that are usually located beside a shop. Here, sweetened condensed milk, whith various additives is produced in accordance with the region’s traditions, religion and flavours. In India’s predominately tropical and subtropical temperatures sweets like chocolate are highly perishable. Thanks to the rich culture of festivities, the consumption of condensed milk sweets, which are usually eaten fresh and are also perishable, has surged. This means that only 13% of the Indian milk procurement is processed in the co-operative and privately owned dairy industry. ‘The majority of this, 8% of the total milk procurement, is processed into packaged or loose pasteurized drinking milk for consumers in the major cities,’ says Karna. ‘The other 5% is used to make products with added value, such as milk powder, ghee, ice cream, cheese and fresh milk products.’

Consumption outstripping production

Finally, he admits that the consumption of milk and dairy products in India is outstripping domestic production. Consumer demand for dairy products like drinking milk, condensed milk, baby food, ghee, butter and ice cream, is estimated to be worth EUR 13.54 billion. This demand grew by an average of 7.6% per year between 1996 and 2002. Despite this growth, the average availability of milk per capita of the population in India is no more than 229 gram per day. And that is clearly below the world average for per capita consumption, says Pankay Karna, which stands at 285 gram per day. Moreover, the quality of Indian milk is not particularly high. ‘We can establish the content of the milk’s fat and other standard constituents. But we have no infrastructure of laboratories to study any other aspects of t

Store:-

37 The store keeper estimate as to what has to be ordered based on the production forecast, existing stock level and the normal consumption pattern which can be worked out from the stock card.

The goods is used according to the FIFO system (First in first out) .The raw material is checked, weighed and or counted after it is unloaded. The expiry date of the raw materials is also checked by the store keeper while unloading.

Quality Control:-

The quality control is a crucial area for this organization especially since it is a food industry and the product’s expiry period is also limited.

There are three major steps/checking:

The first quality inspection is carried out in the laboratory when the raw materials are brought-in.

The second stage quality check is undertaken when the goods are in process. Including the taste, color, amount of raw material used, temperature, weighing etc.

The third stage is after the packing is completed where the method of packing is checked against the set standard.

This system is applied for each and every products line of the Mother Dairy.

Machinery:-

Most of the machineries are imported mainly from Italy & Japan.

The daily production planning is done based on the rated capacity of machines/lines with the required men so as to achieve the maximum efficiency in production.

Report is taken from each machine.

38 There are four lines for powder, two for bitter. The machinery is upgraded with change in technology. Most of those are automatic. The estimated cost of the machineries is around Rs. 75 crores.

We had carried out a thorough study on the powder processing line and learned that only 100 employees were required per line.

Packing:-

Packing process is completed by means of semi automatic as well as automatic packaging line.

The primary packing is done in pouches, tins, etc. While secondary packaging is done in cartons and bags etc.

The products are weighed according to liters and grams.

HOW IT OPERATES……….?

Packaging Materials:

For packaging they use plastic cover as well as tins. The materials are kept in stock according to the forecasting done by the purchase department

39which is arrived at after taking into consideration the sales forecast of marketing department.

Spare parts for machineries:

Breakdown Spare parts of machineries are kept in order that less time is wasted if any occurs due to wear and tear of the parts.

BOOKS:-

BOOKS: - The Amul India Story: Ruth Heredity

"So persevere, if necessary. For success attends only those who persevere, who see their goal steadily and aim for it unswervingly... who persevere with dedication and faith in the cause they are fighting for..."

The author, Ruth Heredia's connection with Amul dates back to the inauguration of the Amul Dairy when, aged four, she presented a bouquet to the guest of honour, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. She and her family have sampled the taste of Amul Condensed Milk and Amul Cheese through their various progressive stages.

Ms Heredia is an occasional writer, and sometimes lectures on her favourite subjects: music, literature and history. She has a post graduate degree in English, has been a librarian, loves animals (especially dogs), and enjoys a good movie or a tennis match.

The Amul India Story is a stimulating excursion into a dream that is now reality. Blessed with the vision of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, a patriot, the book traces the birth of a small movement in Gujarat, the Kaira District Cooperative Milk Producer's Union and its evolution into a fantastic new paradigm of development. A fast-paced narrative, laced with several fascinating anecdotes, the book chronicles the daring initiatives and dynamism displayed by a team of committed individuals - a farmer, Tribhuvandas Patel, a professional manager, V.Kurien and a technologist, H.M.Dalaya. This is a story of faith, empowerment, and dream realization, with all the elements that make a story more interesting - passion, humour and the thrill of anticipation..

Management Kurien Style: MV Kamath

Four decades ago, the then president of India, Dr Rajendra Prasad, laid the foundation stone of a modern dairy, the dairy of the Kaira District Cooperative Milk Producer's Union. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Morarji Desai provided the inspiration for the dairy, which came into existence after a struggle against great odds. Tribhuvandas Patel, with his dedication and integrity, was the power behind the farmer's organisation.Varghese Kurien, then hardly 33, gave the professional management skills and necessary thrust to the cooperative. Over the years the cooperative prospered. Later, Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri was to give further impetus to the dairy cooperatives by inviting Dr Kurien to replicate what came to be known as the Anand Pattern, after the township of Anand, in Gujarat.

M.V. Kamath has told the fascinating saga of the success of first AMUL and then Operation Flood, which was to make India a major milk producing country, in all its complexity. It is an exciting piece of work and a story that has never been told before, rich in anecdotes and revelations of how India's White Revolution became possible.

M.V. KAMATH, 73, a senior columnist and commentator on a whole range of national and international issues is an author of over 35 books on diverse subjects such as journalism, travel, history and culture, biography, politics and philosophy. Starting his career in journalism, after a brief stint as a chemist, Kamath has successively worked as a reporter in the Free Press Journal, editor of Free Press Bulletin and Bharat Jyoti, Contributing Editor United Asia and Sunday Editor of The Times of India.

A former president of the Bombay Union of Journalists, Kamath is a founder member of the Foreign Correspondents Association, Washington
