Government Of Assam Animal Husbandry & Veterinary

Directorate of Dairy Development

The Directorate of Dairy Development initially based all their activities on procurement, processing and distribution of milk. One of their major aim was the economic upliftment of rural milk producers and extending help to urban consumers to get good quality milk at a reasonable price. However, there has been a change in this view and the Directorate has understood the importance of acting in a facilitating and regulatory role.

  • Act as a facilitator to dairy farmers and other stakeholders
  • Act as a regulator of market milk and other products to ensure food safety as per statutory provisions

Functions

  • Awareness and capacity building of stakeholders in the sector

  • Formation of DCSs, Milk Unions and Dairy Federation
  • Creation of need-based infrastructures for various stakeholders
