MILK PRODUCTION AND FOOD SECURITY IN INDIA: AN ANALYSIS OF THE LINKAGES AND IMPLICATIONS
Keywords:
Abstract
Milk production plays a crucial role in ensuring food security in India by providing a vital source of essential nutrients. This study analyzes the linkages between milk production and food security, focusing on the availability and accessibility of milk and dairy products, their nutritional significance, and the implications for livelihoods. The findings demonstrate a positive association between milk production and improved food security indicators. Increased milk production contributes to enhanced availability and accessibility of nutrient-rich food sources, addressing both macronutrient and micronutrient deficiencies. Moreover, milk production stimulates sustainable livelihoods, particularly for smallholder farmers, and promotes rural development through income generation and employment opportunities. However, challenges such as limited infrastructure and market linkages for dairy farmers exist. To capitalize on the linkages between milk production and food security, it is crucial to invest in sustainable practices, strengthen supply chains, and support smallholder farmers. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders in shaping strategies and interventions to further enhance food security through milk production in India.
