&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The country does not know how much milk is needed despite its growth having exceeded targets&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Union government has asked the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) to conduct a study to assess the true scale of demand for milk in India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We have asked NDDB to estimate the present demand for milk and milk products and its forecast in India, as per the National Dairy Plan Phase I,&amp;rdquo; Union Minister for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Radha Mohan Singh, told Parliament in a written reply.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the national plan, the milk sector must grow annually by an average 4.2 per cent. But in the last two years, the growth registered has been much more. India also plans to take its milk production to 240 million metric tonnes (MMT) by 2025. Despite the surplus growth of the last two years, this target looks hard to achieve.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When contacted by Down To Earth, the NDDB said it had started work on the lines suggested by the ministry. &amp;ldquo;It is true that we have never estimated the exact demand for milk. After getting the missive from the government, we have started our study to assess it,&amp;rdquo; said Sangram Singh, executive director, NDDB.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
India&amp;rsquo;s milk production increased from 165.40 MMT in 2016-17 to 176.35 MMT in 2017-18, a growth rate of 6.62 per cent. The country ranks first in global milk production.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the &amp;lsquo;Food Outlook, 2018&amp;rsquo; published by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, world milk production increased from 800.2 MMT in 2016 to 811.9 MMT in 2017, a growth rate of 1.46 per cent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The per capita availability of milk in India during 2017-18 was 375 gm/day and by 2023-24, it is estimated to increase to 592 gm/day.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The country does not know how much milk is needed despite its growth having exceeded targets&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Union government has asked the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) to conduct a study to assess the true scale of demand for milk in India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We have asked NDDB to estimate the present demand for milk and milk products and its forecast in India, as per the National Dairy Plan Phase I,&amp;rdquo; Union Minister for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Radha Mohan Singh, told Parliament in a written reply.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the national plan, the milk sector must grow annually by an average 4.2 per cent. But in the last two years, the growth registered has been much more. India also plans to take its milk production to 240 million metric tonnes (MMT) by 2025. Despite the surplus growth of the last two years, this target looks hard to achieve.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When contacted by Down To Earth, the NDDB said it had started work on the lines suggested by the ministry. &amp;ldquo;It is true that we have never estimated the exact demand for milk. After getting the missive from the government, we have started our study to assess it,&amp;rdquo; said Sangram Singh, executive director, NDDB.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
India&amp;rsquo;s milk production increased from 165.40 MMT in 2016-17 to 176.35 MMT in 2017-18, a growth rate of 6.62 per cent. The country ranks first in global milk production.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the &amp;lsquo;Food Outlook, 2018&amp;rsquo; published by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, world milk production increased from 800.2 MMT in 2016 to 811.9 MMT in 2017, a growth rate of 1.46 per cent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The per capita availability of milk in India during 2017-18 was 375 gm/day and by 2023-24, it is estimated to increase to 592 gm/day.&lt;br /&gt;
