  • Provide good cattle feed and collection and distribution of milk.
  • Make a systematic system for collecting and improving milk from local to industrial level.
  • Provide technologies like- artificial insemination (AI), veterinary facilities and good quality seeds for production of green fodder for dairy animals.
  • Make rural people wealthy and profit in their dairy. 

Function of Anand Pattern-

Anand Pattern (Amul) is a cooperative milk marketing federation.
The Anand pattern functioning is that they directly connect with producers and consumers.
DCS stand for Distribution Control System.
Anand pattern cooperative society (DCS) is a group of dairy farmers.
DCS cooperative members get their bonus at the end of year from the profit of DCS. 
Tribhuvandas Patel was the owner of Amul company.

Whit revolution-

Father of white revolution Dr. Verghese Kurein.
White Revolution is also known as "Operation flood".
White revolution is for increase in milk production in the country.
White Revolution launched in 13 January 1970.
White revolution turn India from milk deficient to world's largest milk producer.
White revolution increase the profit of  dairy farmers by eliminating the middlemen.
White revolution increase the  demand of dairy animals like- cow, buffalo and goat in milk production sector.

Objective and achievement of operation flood

Objective-

  1. Increase milk production.
  2. Increase profit of dairy farmers.
  3. Decrease over price of milk.
Achievement-

  1. Makes India world's largest producer of milk.
  2. Expand infrastructure of dairy industry.
  3. Makes a balance way of  buying and selling of milk.
  4. Increase demand of dairy animals.

  Transportation and milk distribution

Transportation-

Transportation of milk is the main task mostly milk are produced in rural areas and transported in urban areas (cities).
The milk quality is very necessary for long transportation.
Mainly, the milk transported in sealed tanker truck for their quality check and they goes to industries.
For keeping milk cool in transportation tankers with special stainless steel are used.

Distribution-

Milks are generally distributed  by local milk vendors, wholesalers,  retailers and by the producers themselves.
In local areas mils are distributed in small tanks, glass bottles, metal bottles, plastic bottles, milk pouch, etc.

Pricing of milk

Pricing policy for raw milk-

Raw milk pricing level plays vital role in profit of dairy farmers.
A good profit encourage the dairy farmers to increase their productivity.

Pricing system of milk are-

  1. Pricing on fat content.
  2. Pricing on volume or weight.
  3. Pricing on total milk solids.
  4. Pricing on species of milch production.
  5. Pricing as per cost of milk production.
  6. Pricing according to the use of milk.
  7. Two-axis pricing of milk.
  8. Two axes formula.
  9. Kilo fat system.
  10. Double axes pricing.

1. Pricing on fat content-

Maximum number of industries follow this system in which price is depends on amount of fat in milk not in  SNF (Solid Not Fat).

2. Pricing on volume and weight-

It is also known as flat tare.
It is simple system more milk more money.
The pricing of money depends on weight(kg).

3. Pricing on species of milch animal-

In this system, price is depend on animal species in which buffalo milk has higher  price than cow milk.

Platform Test

Common Test Platform (CTP) also known as open test standard (OTS).
This test is done for testing milk quality and impurities.
The lactometer is a device for milk testing.

Platform test objective are-

(a). Alcohol Test (AT)
(b). Clot on boiling test.(COB).
(c). Organoleptic Evaluation (OE)
(d)Sediment Test (ST).
(e)Resazurin Test (RT)


(a). Alcohol Test-(AT)

This test is done for checking abnormal milk as colostrum or mastitis milk.

(b) Clot on boiling Test-(COB)

TO check stability of milk for heat processing.

(c). Organoleptic Evaluation (OE)

For testing smell, colour, temperature, general appearance, etc.

(d). Sediment Test- (ST)

To check clean milk which means free from visible dirt.

(e). Resazurin Test- (RT)

To check amount of bacteriological quality of milk.

Principle of Integrated Disease Management.

Integrated Disease Management (IDM) Integrated Disease Management IDM is a process of controlling pathogenic activities by different-different tactics.  IDM is specially used when the disease is reached on economic threshold levels. Economic threshold means when loss of money is greater than cost of treatment of crops. IDM promotes bio-agent in the crop ecosystem. IDM diseases are- Buruli ulcer, Chagas disease, Human African trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis and yawn. IDM is the practice used for manage and prevent the crops from disease. Importance of IDM Makes plant health and improves its quality, make them disease free. Promotes bio-agent. Reduce the need of pesticides and fungicides by IDM. Reduce chemical use in plants. Component of Integrated Disease Management- There are many components in IDM but mainly their are four- Host resistance. Biological control. Cultural control Chemical control. Physical Methods. 1. Host resistance- Resistance protects the plant from several pathog...

Field should be properly tilled and well drained seed bed. Row to Row distance 4 to 5 feet with 15 feet gap. Sowing Time & Method- 15 June to 15 July is recommended. According to varie...

Agriculture Microbiology

 AGRICULTURE MICROBIOLOGY Microbes A small living organisms that we see with the help of microscope. They live in water, oxygen, and land. E.g. Virus, Fungi, Protozoan, Bacteria, Algae, etc. They are unicellular, multicellular & clusters. Soil Microbes The living organisms that live in the soil known as soil microbes. It enhances soil fertility and health. It decomposing organic matter. "Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria"(PGPR), it is a group of bacteria which enhances plant growth and yield of crop.  PGPR also works as biofertilizers. Carbon Cycle It is the natural way by which we re-use the carbon. There are two main processes which occur:  photosynthesis   and  metabolism . In carbon cycle process the carbon from environment used by living organisms and travel back to atmosphere. Nitrogen Cycle It is the process by which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into  multiple chemical forms. e.g. Dinitrogen, Nitrate, Ammonium Nitrate, etc. Biogeochemical...
