INDIAN DAIRY INDUSTRY Both public and private sector have contributed to the dairy industry growth in India. Government dairy distributes 90% of its milk in sachets or in containers while remaining 10% is marketed as butter, ghee etc. On contrary, private sector only markets 20% of milk and remaining 80% of milk is made into preparation suitable for exports. Amul have Chocolate as their main product. Though India is No. 1 in milk production, it is unfortunate that we are importing milk products from other countries. Since we do not have good technology for production of skim milk powder we are forced to import them from Europe and New Zealand. HISTORY OF THE COMPANY The story of AMUL inspired 'Operation Flood' and heralded the 'White Revolution' in India. It began with two village cooperatives and 250 liters of milk per day, nothing but a trickle compared to the flood it has become today. Today Amul collect processes and distributes over a million liters of milk and milk products per day, during the peak, on behalf of more than a thousand village cooperatives owned by half a million farmer members. Amul has become a symbol of the aspirations of millions of farmers; creating a pattern of liberation and self-reliance for every farmer to follow. The AMUL revolution started as awareness among the farmers grew and matured into a protest movement. Over four decades ago, the life of a farmer in Kaira District was very much like that of his counterpart anywhere else in India. His income was derived almost entirely from seasonal crops. The income from milk buffaloes was undependable. Private traders and middlemen controlled the marketing and distribution system for the milk. As milk is perishable, farmers were compelled to sell it for whatever they were offered. Often, they had to sell cream and ghee at throwaway prices. In this situation, the one who gained was the private trader .Gradually, the realization dawned on the farmers that the exploitation by the trader could be checked only if marketed their milk themselves .In order to do that they needed to form some sort of an organization. This realizationis what led to the establishment of the Kaira District Cooperative Milk Producers' Union Limited (popularly known as Amul) which was formally registered on December 14, 1946.Currently AMUL has 2.28 million producer members with milk collection average of5.08 million liters/day .

MAIN BUSINESS AMUL is mainly into the business of marketing, transporting and distributing the milk and milk products manufactured by its owners. Besides creating urban employment in dairy plants, marketing, transporting and distribution, it has helped to provide farmers with a sustainable rural employment program. AMUL has always tried to be a step ahead of the market. It has always been a model to which other cooperatives have looked up as an example and inspiration as well as one from which many have benefited. AMUL was one of the first major organizations in India to have a website. This site has been used both to develop an intranet of AMUL distributors as well as a cyber-store for consumers , one of the first examples of e-commerce activity in India. satisfy the taste and nutritional requirements of the customers of the world, through excellence in marketing by our committed team.

PROBLEM FACED DURING IMPORT Oil Once again the year witnessed large-scale import of edible oils from germany, adversely affecting the interests of our farmer producers. Imports dampened domestic oilseed prices forcing our farmers to shift from oilseed production. Despite these unstable conditions, Dhara sales maintained the previous year's volume, confirming consumer faith in its purity and value for money. With the recent increase in duty on imported oil, the domestic edible oil market scenario is showing an upward trend and they expect that Dhara as a market leader, will benefit with significant volume growth during the coming year. At the same time as theye are encouraged by recent steps, they would like to draw Government's attention to the importance of addressing aspects of the national Agricultural policy. It is paradoxical that while liberal imports of edible oils adversely affected domestic oilseeds production resulting in large outflows of foreign exchange, price supports for cereal production have resulted in accumulation of vast surpluses, forcing the Government to export wheat and rice at subsidized prices. The need of the day is a sound agricultural policy framework that reflects - but doesn't cave in to international trade regimes.

PROBLEM DURING EXPORT ms During Export India. Any plans for that region? After Amul, the second-largest dairy company is Nandini of Karnataka. So far they e are able to set up most of there distribution networks in terms of depots and outlets in north, east and west India. Now that they are getting more milk, they will look into expanding in southern India. they are today not present in terms of fresh dairy products in south. There are very strong players in consumer dairy products in the south and that gives us healthy competition The likes of Nestle and Cadbury are market leaders in chocolates. Where does Amul stand? amul entered the chocolates industry 35 to 40 years ago to give cocoa growers in Kerala remunerative prices. They have put a small plant that runs on 100 per cent capacity. But we have to see our priorities. they have to think whether we should invest in brand building for our dairy products or for chocolates. Nevertheless, they are investing in chocolates. We are not a chocolate company, we are a dairy company. There are so many income channels available for farmers. Is it a challenge for Amul to keep farmers interested in milk production? It is a serious challenge for us to keep the next generation interested in dairy farming. This is also one of the reasons for offering competitive procurement prices to farmers. The young generation is not interested in continuing dairy farming the way his or her father was. The young generation want dairy farming to be a very dependable source of income, and not a second option to agriculture. For this, we are looking at commercialising dairy farming by helping them maintain 25 to 30 strong cattle, buy modern milking machines and follow best practices for higher productivity Nestle is setting up a plant in Gujarat; does that pose a threat to Amul? For Amul, competition is not a new thing; neither on the procurement side nor on the market side. Be it in ice cream, baby food, dairy whitener, condensed milk or cheese, we have been fighting it out with big multinationals. On the procurement side, Gujarat farmers own the production, processing and marketing activities and hence they get the maximum out of a consumer rupee. In Gujarat, a farmer gets Rs 450 per kg of fat, while a farmer in states like Punjab gets Rs 400-410 per kg of fat. Amul faces competition across all product categories. We are the leader in packed liquid milk in the country but state-wise we have competition from local cooperatives in milk. In baby food or dairy whitener, we have competition from
19

multinationals like Nestle. In ice cream and cheese, again, we have competition. But more than the national players, the competition we find tough to fight is from regional dairy players. Even in the near future, we dont see any private dairy company fighting out with us nationally in a big way. This is also because the easier thing is to set up a processing plant. If you have a deep pocket, you can set up 10 to 15 plants. After that comes building the brand. Even that can be built if you have enough money. But the most difficult thing to do is to have a full-fledged procurement system. Creating a network of milk procurement from 3.2 million farmers, that too twice a day, like Amul does, will take decades for a new player. Throughout the year, they will have to give good prices and gain farmers confidence.

Signature of Authorised Signatory of transport carrier Firm : ____________________ Name of the Authorised signatory : _____________________ Place : Anand Designation : _____________________ Date : / /2012 Rubber Stamp of the transport Carrier Firm : _____________________E:/C:dir:QTN12-13/tms12-13 Effect of dollar price FDI in retail is definitely not going to benefit the farmers, said Mr R.S.Sodhi, Managing Director, Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd, which owns the Amul brand. Farmers get the least returns from the modern trade and the so called efficiency benefits only the large retailers as they constantly drive down the prices, Mr Sodhi said. Citing the International Farm Comparison Network (IFCN) data, Mr Sodhi said milk producers in the US got only 38 per cent share of the consumer's dollar spent on milk, while the rest was earned by the processor and retailer. In the United Kingdom, the milk producers got only 36 per cent. However, in India, the milk producer gets more than 70 per cent of the consumer's rupee on an average. Moreover, the milk producer affiliated to co-operatives get more than 80 per cent share of the consumer's rupee, Mr Sodhi said. In the US, the farmer's share in the consumer's price has declined from 52 per cent in 1996 to 38 per cent in 2009, while in the UK it has declined from 56 per cent in 1996 to 38 per cent in 2009. This decline clearly demonstrates that the milk producers suffer when the share of organised retail increases, Mr Sodhi said.

FURURE PLANNING OF AMUL Amul plans to open 10 quick service restaurants it shall be opening ten quick service restaurants (QSRs) across the country by the end of this fiscal. We are opening two Amul QSRs one each in Ahmedabad and Banagalore city today. The target is to open 10 such outlets by the end of this fiscal year, the Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) Managing Director, Mr R.S. Sodhi, said.e Two federation run Amul QSRs are already operating in Ahmedabad offering a wide range of delectables like sandwiches, dosa, burgers, pav bhaji....They also house a cafe selling our wide range of dairy products, he said. But all the new QSRs to be opened shall be on franchisee model now, Mr Sodhi said. The investment of franchisee shall be between Rs 15-20 lakh on one outlet and Amul shall be taking care of branding, marketing and providing them with technical know how, he said. GCMMF markets its dairy products under the brand Amul. It aims to increase the network of its retail Amul preferred outlets pan-India from the existing around 6,000 to 10,000 by 2012. It total sales stood at $2.2 billion in 2010-11.

Amul to set up 9 new plants in next 4 yrs Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), the maker of Amul dairy products, will invest Rs 3,000 crore to set up nine new plants and expand the capacity of existing facilities in the next four years. "In the next four years, we are investing around Rs 3,000 crore in setting up nine new plants and the capacity of the existing 40 plants will be increased," federation's Managing Director R S Sodhi told reporters at the launch of Amul Pro, a protein-rich beverage, in Andhra Pradesh market here today. "We have 14.5 million litres per day capacity and it will reach to 18 million litres per day after the expansion," he added.
37

He said four new plants would be set up in the Saurasthra region of Gujarat. The federation will set up two plants in Delhi and one each in Maharashtra, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh. Sodhi said they increased the milk procuring price by almost 50 per cent in the last three years to farmers in order to keep the activity lucrative. He said current generation of farmers is not finding milk business as viable and the situation may lead to depend on imports like other Asian countries. "So we thought if we do not take up this seriously, India will become like other Asian countries such as Pakistan which depend on import of milk. We took a lead and increased price to farmer," he explained. According to Sodhi, the GCMMF currently pays including bonus Rs 34.40 for buffalo milk and Rs 22.50 for cow milk. Replying to a query on exports to European Union, Sodhi said conditions such as using machines for milking is deterrent for exports. "In India you cannot get milk with milking machine... It is impossible." He said GCMMF expects to achieve Rs 30,000 crore turnover by 2020.
