Similar results have been reported by many researchers who have analysed economics of milk production of members of co-operatives versus that of non-members (Tanwar et al 2012;Pandian and Selvakumar, 2013;Vishnoi, 2014;Priscilla, 2017;Chand et al 2017;Athare et al 2019;Kumari et al 2020).

Primary data collected for 2019-â€˜20 from 416 members and non-members of dairy farmer collectives (where farmers come together to market their milk collectively â€“ this study considers a co-operative union and a milk producer company â€“ both prominent forms of farmer collectives) in Saurashtra region of Gujarat are used to work-out the cost and returns in milk production from local cow and buffalo, and across dairy farmer categories. The analyses reveal that farmer collective organizations like co-operatives and producer companies are profitable in case of both local cow and buffalo milk production, and also for the small (1-3) and medium (3-6) herd-size category (in Standard Animal Units or SAU) of farmers. Both the overall average feed cost and Total Variable cost (TVC) per animal per day incurred by members is 12 per cent and 11 per cent less than that of non-members, respectively. Members of the co-operative receive annual bonus and members of the producer company receive annual dividends and cash incentives; with this additional benefit received by the members, their total return per litre is 25 per cent more than that of non-members. The overall average annual net returns from dairy per household for members are higher at Rs. 11,641/- compared to the returns of non-members at Rs. 3955/-. Expanding the reach of farmer collective organizations would benefit more dairy farmers by making dairy a more profitable enterprise for them.

Similar findings were reported by Kumari et al (2020) and Rangnath et al (2015). In nutshell, results reveal that the coefficient on green fodder was found to be positive and significant in all herds size categories.…”

Background: In India dairy farming is a significant part of the rural population, providing not only supplementary income and nutritional standards but also organic manures and draught power. Andhra Pradesh ranks 5th in total milk production in India with an output of 15.04 million metric tonnes and Chittoor district is one of the leading districts for dairy farming in the state. There is an increasing trend in milk production; however, the main drawback faced by the milk producers in dairy farming is the low productivity of milch animals. Assessing the economics of milk production would be extremely beneficial in planning for the improvement of productivity of dairy animals and framing policies to increase the profitability of dairy farms. Methods: Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh was purposively selected for the present investigation. The primary data was collected from 80 respondents of which 40 each from two villages in the year 2021. The economics of milk production and the resource use efficiency of milk were computed based on collected data. Result: The per-day gross cost for maintaining local cow, crossbred cow and buffalo was found to be ₹ 161.09, ₹ 246.16 and ₹ 196.07, respectively. The overall cost per litre of milk was found to be slightly high in the case of buffalo (₹ 31.45), followed by the local cow (₹ 31.33) and crossbred cow (₹ 19.69), respectively. The net returns per litre of milk were found to be highest in the case of the crossbred cow (₹ 7.45), followed by buffalo (₹ 3.66) and local cow (₹ 0.12). It was observed that the net return per litre of milk for local cows was very less due to high feed cost, labour cost and low productivity of milk. Green fodder, dry fodder and concentrate were observed underutilized whereas labour was found to be over-utilized.

Scope of the study focuses on fermented dairy products because, they constitute very large and important part of human diet. And these products are very healthy and have some health benefits. 2731 fermented dairy processors in 227 sub-sectors in 48 cities have been in-vestigated to determine whether these processors in 48 cities are efficient in producing fer-mented dairy products. And input oriented CCR (Constant Returns to Scale) DEA (Data En-velopment Analysis) model is deployed to determine the level of efficiency of the dairy pro-cessors in producing fermented dairy products. According to results, İzmir ranks 1st, Balıkesir ranks 2nd, Şanlı Urfa ranks 3rd and Kahraman Maraş ranks 4th. While Ardahan is the lowest ranking city. And Generalized Linear Model has been utilized to find out the effect of the length of roads, the number of white-collar and blue-collar employees on fermented dairy production capacity. And results states that the number of blue-collar employees has a positive effect on fermented dairy production capacity at 0.001 significance. And the number of white-collar employees doesn’t have a significant effect on the fermented dairy production capacity while length of road has a positive effect on the fermented dairy production capacity at 0.10 significance level.
