India’s dairy industry has contributed immensely to the success and growth of the farm economy. Being

the bastion of the small and marginal farmers, their relevance in securing dependable income is

undisputed in India. The reliability of these sectors in providing a stable income to the Indian farmers have

made them an integral component of the rural households. The role of the dairy industry in adding value

by creating milk value chain and effectively connecting farmer with the consumer, has increased farm

protability and the increasing demand for their products have led to the establishment and success of

many large scale dairy ventures in India. Today India is the largest producer and consumer of milk in the

world. The dairy sector in India grew at a rate of 6.4 per cent annually in the last four years against the

global growth rate 1.7 per cent. Milk production in India during the period 1950-51 to 2017-18, has

increased from 17 million tonnes to 176.4 million tonnes as compared to 165.4 million tonnes during

2016-17 recording a growth of 6.65 %. The per capita availability of milk in the country which was 130

gram per day during 1950-51 has increased to 374 gram per day in 2017-18 as against the world

estimated average consumption of 294 grams per day during 2017. This represents sustained growth in

the availability of milk and milk products for our growing population. The country’s milk production is

expected to surpass the 180-million tonne mark in the current nancial year mainly on account of various

export-linked benets by the government. Milk Cooperatives have played an important role in securing

India’s numero uno position in dairy segment. Several private players have also forayed into this

promising arena, creating value addition, incomes and employment. Inclusion of technologies and value

addition has increased the scope and opportunities in the dairy segment. The glory amassed by the sector

is the result of the continuous efforts and struggles at individual and organizational levels. Indian dairy

industry has risen in success, fame and glory. And in this journey of transformation from a backyard

activity to a global leadership position, many individuals and institutions have played seminal roles. These

role models need to be admired and recognized. Agriculture Today Group as the media and policy catalyst

has always been on the forefront in providing information, inuencing policies, creating business

networks and recognizing performers. The institution of India Dairy Awards is a small step in this direction

to further the cause of Indian dairy sector.

Agriculture has been the primary occupation of human beings. What began as a means of survival, has today emerged as a significant economic

activity around the world. Agriculture has transformed in various ways from subsistence to affluence, from traditional to technological, from

undefined to precise, and the pace has rapidly accelerated in the last one decade with the globalization and technological advancement. In this journey

of transformation media has played critical roles. Still there is a long way to go in making the planet free from hunger and malnutrition.

Increasing population, changing climate, diminishing resources and increasing disposable incomes have put agriculture worldwide under tremendous

pressure. While the developed countries moved up in food, nutrition and health chain through technological advancements, second and third world

countries are grappling with challenges in farming and food production. Developing and underdeveloped nations in order to boost agriculture and

unlock the potential of trade and technologies, need cooperation and collaboration and global experiences at an accelerated pace.

The experiences of the country like India, which pulled out over 500 million people from the jaws of hunger deaths through Green Revolution,

provides excellent learning experiences for most of the African and many of the Asian and Latin American countries with its experiences and diversity

of learning through Green Revolution in food production, White Revolution in milk, Blue Revolution in fisheries and Golden Revolution in

horticulture production. Agriculture Today Group, headquartered in New Delhi benefits hugely by the Indian experiences as also the Asian, European

and American experiences.
