Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister has reiterated the state government’s commitment to strengthening the dairy sector and increasing the income of farmers and livestock owners through cooperative-based milk production.
In a message shared on social media, the Chief Minister said the government was actively encouraging dairy farming as an additional source of livelihood, alongside traditional agricultural activities.
As part of this initiative, milk cooperative societies are being established in Gram Panchayats across the state to facilitate systematic milk collection and provide farmers with better access to the dairy network.
The Chief Minister emphasised that farmers should not remain dependent solely on crop production but also explore animal husbandry and milk production to diversify their income sources.
The initiative aims to expand the rural dairy cooperative network, encourage livestock rearing and create additional economic opportunities at the village level, while strengthening the role of cooperatives in Madhya Pradesh’s rural economy.
