India is the world’s largest milk producer and a leader in the global dairy industry. However, the country’s dairy sector still faces many challenges. Sidhant Gupta, a well-known expert in the field and former Director of Kwality Ltd., talks about both the problems and opportunities in India’s dairy industry. He says, “India produces about 22% of the world’s milk, with over 70 million dairy farmers making this possible. Yet, most of the industry is unorganized, and many farmers still use traditional methods.”
India’s large milk production is both a strength and a challenge. On the positive side, it ensures that the country can meet its own needs and has the potential to become a top exporter. However, the industry is fragmented, with most dairy farming done by small farmers. This makes it harder to introduce modern technology, improve infrastructure, and maintain consistent quality—all of which are important for growth and competing in the global market.
