India aiming to achieve one-third of the global milk production by 2030: Official

The National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) is working to increase productivity so that India can account for one-third of the global milk production by 2030, its chairman Meenesh Shah said.

He said breeding, nutrition and health of animals are the main focus areas for achieving the target.

"Currently, India accounts for 24% or one-fourth of total world milk production. This contributes to 4-5% of our GDP. Our plan is to increase the share globally to 30% or one-third of world milk production by 2030," he said.
