Chairman’s Message
The business environment is changing rapidly, both globally and domestically. With
the projected growth in milk and milk products by 2025, free trade, food regulatory
environment and consumer’s preference for fair price and quality consciousness are also
posing new challenges to the cooperative dairy sector. In such a situation cooperative
dairy industry is required to improve its operations by adopting modern management
approaches and making use of newer technologies and techniques. There will be an
increasing demand for investment, new machinery and trained manpower. NDDB
recognises the need for qualified, well trained and motivated personnel for sustainable
development and prosperity of the cooperative dairy industry against the backdrop
of rapidly changing technological advances. I am happy to note that NDDB-Mansinh
Institute of Training (MIT), Mehsana continues to play a significant role in taking care
of training needs of dairy cooperatives.
With best wishes,
T Nanda Kumar
Chairman
National Dairy Development Board
