Production of Skimmed Milk Powder in India Constrained by Large Scale Slaughtering of Milch Animals

A new study from IMARC Group suggests that it will take around 4 to 5 years for the country's skimmed milk powder production to reach levels that it had in 2008-09. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) August 18, 2011 - A new study from IMARC Group, one of the world's leading research and advisory firms, finds that the production of skimmed milk powder declined by 20% in 2009-10 compared to the previous year. Findings from the report suggested that apart from drought like conditions, large scale slaughtering of milch animals was a major reason for the decline in production. Currently all cow and buffalo meat exporters get a 30% subsidy on exports. As a result of this subsidy, as well as an increased demand for meat exports in 2009-10, a large number of milch cattle and their calves were slaughtered and exported. This resulted in making milch animals scarce and thereby causing a reduction in the production of milk. Although, the production of skimmed milk powder again rose by around 5% in 2010-11, findings from the report suggested that bringing milch animals to a milk producing age takes at least four to five years. As a result, it will still take some time before the country can again reach the same level of skimmed milk production that it had in 2008-09.
