Kamdhenu Scheme (Sudharit)

Amended 2021

Introduction:—

Government has introduced Kamdhenu Scheme (Sudharit) Amended strictly based upon the applicant fulfilling the following conditions:—

a. The applicant has to be bonafide

resident of Goa for at least 05 years.

1830 OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES I No. 29 14TH OCTOBER, 2021

b. Shall possess a pucca cattle shed with cement flooring for housing the animals proposed to be reared.

c. Undertake to strictly stall feed the

animals and not allow open grazing.

d. New applicant compulsorily has to undergo dairy training as decided by the Department of AH & VS at the designated training centre. Fresh applicants who are old traditional dairy farmers and are currently engaged in dairy activities themselves having crossbred animals/ improved Buffaloes/Indigenous cattle, but had not availed the Kamdhenu Scheme could be exempted from undergoing the dairy training and will be considered only on recommendation from the Area Officer.

The main reason for the success of the dairy programme in India is the involvement of milk producers in setting up their own organizations for milk production enhancement, milk procurement, processing and marketing. Dairying, as a subsidiary source of income, is a real relief to most of these weaker groups in society.

In today's life style one or two milch animals are not sufficient to enable these farmers to generate sufficient additional income to break the various subsistence agricultural debt cycle. Animal Husbandry plays a vital role in providing household nutritional security, increased income, and employment especially of women and in rural transformation. Livestock provide economic security and social status to the family. Concentration of Livestock in general and small ruminants in particular, is in marginal, small and semi-medium holding, which mostly represent poorer sections of the society. Thus progress in livestock sector is directly related to a more balanced development of rural economy and upliftment of the poor sections of the society.

Dairying with high yielding crossbred cattle, Improved She Buffaloes and Indigenous breeds namely Sahiwal, Gir, Red Sindhi, Rathi and Tharparkar has become a remunerative business. Studies have shown that dairy enterprise as against crop in rural areas was on the top with regard to profit in marginal, small and medium holding. Dairying and crop production together for small farmers having irrigated land was more profitable than crop farming alone. Animal Husbandry components provide easy cash; therefore, small farmers prefer it to crop production.

To begin with and in order to accelerate at fast pace the daily milk production in the state the scheme is intended to be implemented with full zeal throughout the state and create special milk producing pockets called 'Dudh Gram Villages'.

The Dudh Gram Villages shall be carved out, based on their records of supply of maximum milk produced in a year and supplied to the Goa Milk Producers' Union and other authorized Agencies. The concept is to target these groups and attain faster results in these Villages/Gram Panchayats to be declared as Dudh Gram in the implementation of Milk Policy for the state with the intention of giving special attention in the policy and programme implementation.

Objectives of The Scheme:—

The main objectives of the scheme are

v To help the farmers to get financial assistance for the purchase of Cross Bred Cows, Improved She Buffaloes and Cows of Indigenous breeds namely Sahiwal, Gir, Red Sindhi, Rathi and Tharparkar for his Dairy Unit.

v To promote self employment in the Dairy

Sector.

v To boost the milk production in the state

and to make state self sufficient.

v To strengthen the Dairy Co-operative

movement in the state.

v To ensure sustainability and provide

improved income and livelihood.

v To also encourage the schedule tribe

and schedule caste communities.
