India is the largest milk producing country in the world. It produced 146.31 million tonnes of milk in 2014-15. India has low Milk productivity as compare to western countries; still it tops the list of largest milk producing country in the world because of the larger number of cattle in the country. Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Punjab and Haryana are the major milk producing states in India. India is also the largest producer of buffalo milk in the world.
History: During the 1964-65, Intensive Cattle Development Programme (ICDP) was introduced in the country in which a package of improved animal husbandry was given to cattle owners for promoting the white revolution in the country. Later on to increase the speed of the white revolution, a new programme named “operation flood” was introduced in the country by the National Dairy Development Board.
