In India, milk is obtained from cows, buffaloes, goats and from camels (in Rajasthan). The Indian Dairy Industry has acquired substantial growth from the Eighth Plan onwards. India’s milk output has not only placed the industry first in the world, but also represents sustained growth in the availability of milk and milk products. The dairy v sector is now the largest contributor in the agricultural sector to the nation’s GDP. The huge increase in milk supply through concerted efforts on a cooperative level is known as the White Revolution.

White Revolution was one of the biggest dairy development movements, by the Indian Government, in India in 1970. It was a step taken by the Indian Government to develop and help the dairy industry sustain itself economically by developing a co-operative, while providing employment to the poor farmers.
The White Revolution helped increase milk productivity and milk was now sold at competitive market prices. This program increased the demand for development and production of healthy animals, use of modern technology in milk production sector and networking between various small and large scale dairy industries.
The White Revolution followed after the success of the Green Revolution and the aim of White Revolution was to make India one of the largest milk producers in the world.
