INTRODUCTION TO INDIAN DAIRIES
Lot of Indian people start day with tea & milk. Milk is an essential factor of our daily life. In India
milk business is very old business. Dairy business adopt modern concept in 1970 with the help
of National Dairy Develop Board through Operation Flood Plan. In first section of plan, ten
states were selected. In which Mother dairy was setup in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata.
Our country is on first position in production of milk. But in filed per capita availability of milk is
almost 900 gm while in India it is almost 200 gm. The ideal average per capita availability of
milk should be at least 250 gm.
GENERAL REVIEW
• The industry’s growth potential is high as there is sufficient domestic demand and good
scope for exports of milk products.
• India is emerging as one of the largest and fastest growing consumers market in the
world with high-income elasticity of demand of dairy product. Indian dairying is energy-
efficient, labour intensive and ecological sound.
• Over 80% of milk sold in urban & semi urban areas is non-pasteurized from
unorganized sector. The overall market for liquid milk is growing 4 percent per annum.
In olden days, the wealth was measured in number of cattle’s, and the cow was considered as
a sacred animal in India. It was worshipped as Goddess of fertility in other continental
countries. Event about 6000 years ago, the importance of milk as food was known. According
to the best authority, the domestication of the cattle was taken somewhere between 6000 to
10000 years B.C. Dairy Industry contributes constant side income to the farmers along with as
a chief source of food for human beings. Through scientific investigations, the nutritional value
of the milk and its products has been realized though their importance was realized even
earlier to 3000 B.C. The cow has formed as an efficient producer of human food than any other
animal consuming large amount of roughages that cannot be taken by the human beings and
converting into milk. Cow is also considered as essential for maintaining the fertility of the soil.
There are many changes in the dairy industry since 1850.
Modern creamery, ice cream, factory, condensed and dry milk plants have been developed
after the invention of cream separators fat testing apparatus, pasteurization, neutralization and
refrigeration etc.
8|Page
Regular shipment of milk for distant places, in special milk tanks, trucks has been possible to
transport milk in good condition. In refrigerated condition, ships were used to transport cream,
butter, cheese etc. to different long distant places including international market.
Bacteriological, chemical and nutritional researches on milk and milk products made the urban
people to use more in their diet. Improved livestock, scientific breeding along with modern
technique made the milk industry progress rapidly. Milk was utilized in the early periods for the
preparation of products rather than direct consumption. Concentration of milk production in
villages far off from urban areas, insufficient transport facilities, high temperature, high
percentage of humidity, lack of education to appreciate the modern advances in the technology
and too many milk producers are some of the causes of the poor condition of milk industry in
India.
FORMATION AND MANAGEMENT OF CO-POERATIVE SOCIETIES
Co-operatives societies can be formed under Indian Co-operative Act. The following conditions
are essential for formation of the society.
MANAGEMENT
The management of co-operative societies is based on democratic aspect. All members elect
a working committee that looks after the work of the society. The members are not paid salary.
Registrar of co-operative societies departments checks the accounts of society.

It is true any industry is the engines of growth in any economy. They are the job providers and
the technological innovators. Dairy industry of this area takes a form of independent industry
and through it’s those people gets benefits, which are the member of its industry directly or
indirectly.
DIRECT EFFECT:-
1. A farmer 50% of income earn by milk selling
2. Solving of economic problems of that area through provide employment to young
person.
INDIRECT EFFECT:-
1. Due to get A.I facility, cheap animal food farmer can increase of milk production.
2. People get more benefit due to no intermediaries.
OTHER BENEFITS
1. People get pour, fresh and pasteurized milk.
2. Provide employment to the transporters who are supplying milk to the society.
In marketing of milk products, the key managerial decision areas are following:-
1) How to frame the product mix?
2) How to structure the distribution channel?
10 | P a g e
3) How to manage the pricing?
4) How to design the promotion mix?
1) The product mix: - in product mix of milk, the important managerial decision areas are
following:-
a) Selection for cows or buffaloes: - the managerial decision areas to select the particular
quality of cows or buffaloes which providing milk in larger quality.
b) Breading to improve the quality: - for this purpose, producers should also consider and
quality of water and fodder available.
c) Yield of milk: - To bring improvement in the milk supply, it is essential that multi-faceted
arrangements are made, e.g. high quality, healthy water and so on.
d) Seasonal variation in production: - this variation in mainly affected by the incidence or
calving of milk animals during different months of the year.
The advertisement of Anand, saras in almost all leading journals, newspaper and magazines.
In addition, the also display their advertisement through radios, TV’s and other devices. Of late
11 | P a g e
the milk products like chocolates, skimmed milk, cheese etc offer gifts, off price and premium
facilities so as to attract the prospects and benefit the functionaries.
Co-operation means mutual working. It is based on principle “each for all and all for each”. In
other words it is an organization of weaker section to face exploitation of rich persons. In other
words co-operative forms of organization are an association of persons where by people of
ordinary means joint voluntarily to protect their economic and social interests. Thus it is a
protective mean adopted by such persons. The aim of this movement is service and
reasonable profits.
Introduction - The “Feeder Balancing Dairy” Jodhpur is located on the out skirts of Jodhpur
city in Heavy Industrial Area. A uniform piece of 25 acres of land has got road on its front side
two sides of this piece of land are free and at the back long way away is “Central Arid Zone”.
Paschimi Rajasthan Dugdh Utpadak Sahkari Sangh, Jodhpur PRDUSS) was established in the
year 1972, under the Operation Flood Programmed funds from D.P.A.P. were utilized for the
construction of plant at Jodhpur, and later on establish various chilling centers. Initially five
districts of Jodhpur, Pali, Jaisalmer, Barmer and Nagaur were included under PRDUSS. But
Pali was hived off later and was made into an independent union.
Under Jodhpur Union the production of milk is one lack liter per day while consumption of milk
is 73 thousand liters per day. The excess of milk (60 thousand liters) is send to the central
dairy Delhi and Gujarat. At present 485 co-operative societies and 347- milk collection centre
12 | P a g e
are functioning where average production of milk is one lack thirty three thousand liters coming
in Jodhpur dairy through 53,198 milk production’s.
Through increase milk production can fight with famine. Many district of Marwar faces with
famine in every year but through increase in mil production they do earn money and get relief
from famine. There is only source of earning money is in agriculture field and no other source
available so Farmer earn money by selling of milk to DCS. They get payment in cash or bank
account after ten days.
According to dairy officers whenever falling famine in western Rajasthan, in dairy collection of
milk increase. During the famine in Barmer & Jaisalmer district the collection of milk is increase
45,000 liter. In the last year, December the total collection of milk was 72,000 liter while this
year it is reached 1, 17,000 liter. Dairy provides animal food at cheap rate for maximum
production of milk. In Barmer & Jaisalmer village almost 24 bulk cooler through this the
problem of farmer is eliminate. Whenever dairy vehicles reach late, milk keep in these bulk
cooler.
In the year November, 2005 after setup new milk centre at Bilara, the collection of milk was
between 30 to 40 thousand liters.

PROCESSING SYSTEM OF SARAS MILK PRODUCTS
PROCESSING OF MILK
Initially for the processing of milk, milk is brought into the “Process Plant” from the dock
through the milk pipe. There is a motor situated outside from which through a pipe milk is filled
in eight tanks situated on the 2nd floor. The capacity of each tank is 12,000 liters. These are
insulated tanks and are used to chill the storage of milk. Then the quantity required of the milk
in the storage is supplied to the process plant through the pipe. That pipes are directly
connected to the chillers. The milk comes into the chillers from the insulated tanks. There are
green pipes connected above it and the chilled water keeps on flowing in them. That chilled
water directly comes into the chiller and also the milk comes into the chiller through the milk
pipe. So, the milk is chilled in that chiller and then heated in a separate small tank situated next
to the chiller. After getting heated of the milk it is supplied to the pasteurization machine
through the pipe where the heated milk is chilled and heated again. After then it is supplied to
separator. There are three connected separators. One of them is turned on and if there is more
quantity of the milk, all the three are turned on. The cream is medium size tank and from there
it is heated in a small size tank. From that tank the milk is filled in the two tanks situated next to
it and lastly supplied outside the process plant through the pipeline by the motor for making
butter, paneer & shrikhand.
28 | P a g e
There was a powder making plant in the Jodhpur Dairy before sometime but it failed due to
some reasons. So, this Dry powder is imported from the Jaipur Dairy or Mother Dairy or Amul
Dairy as needed.
WHAT IS CREAM?
Cream is a fatty portion of milk having concentration of fat. It can be separated either by gravity
method or centrifugal force. Gravity method, shallow pan method, deep setting method are
other methods for the cream extraction.
The shallow Pan Method
The Deep Setting Method
Centrifugal Method
PASTERUISATION OF CREAM
The pasteurization of cream is done to increases the keeping quality of the butter, to destroy
all Bacteria, mould and Enzymes like (Lipase) and to complete the neutralization effect. It is
done at a higher temperature, which is 70° C to 72° C in batch or holding method and 75° C to
80° C in H.T.S.T. method. By pasteurization of the cream, the volatile off flavors can be
removed.
BUTTER MAKING
Butter is fatty substance containing more butter fat in a continuous phase in fatty substances
such as water, salt, curds etc. in dispersed condition. It can be made either fro milk or cream.
Legally it should not have less than 80% fat. Table butter may contain 2% to 2.5% common
salt. It may or may not have any artificial colours.
Butter can be of many types like – Desi Butter, Farm Butter & Factory Butter etc. The process
involved in manufacture of creamery butter is following:-
1. Separation of Cream from the Milk
2. Selection of Cream
3. Neutralization or Pasteurization of Cream
4. Cream Ripening
5. Ageing and finally making printing and Marketing of Butter.
29 | P a g e
GHEE MAKING PROCESS
The Ghee making process starts from the Butter Churn. The butter is supplied to the Ghee
making room through the trolleys and it is heated in two big tanks through the steam. Then the
processed substance is heated at 40° C in the three Gattles (Tanks) situated on the stands
towards above one by one. After getting filtered the residue remains, is thrown. Then this
mixture-cum-hot ghee is poured into the two (Haupers) tanks and there it is left for some time
for being it cooled. There is a layer for holding the cool water which cools the hot ghee. And
this cooled ghee is supplied to a tanks through the filtering pipe, and from the next tank it is
supplied to a further next tank thought the filtering pipe. And from that tank it is supplied to the
packing room through the pipes. It is collected there in a Big Tank. From that tank the 15 Kg.
tins are filled, balanced and packed through the steal seal. Then it is sealed with the seal of
“AGMARK” of Indian Government and sends away for storing and selling. There is two ways
for making ghee – one, making ghee from cream and second, making ghee from butter.
Paneer is made by Toned Milk. In a big Tank, milk is poured from Insulated Storage Tanks by
pipe line. From this tank, two Cans are filled with milk. After it, he milk in two cans is divided
into three cans and boiled by steam road at 90° C. And after it, the boiled milk of cans is
poured in a big open utensil and some Citric Acid was added in it and shook well. After this,
the milk is torn and the wastage water is thrown by tape and the torn milk cream is poured in
the Box and covered by white delicate coth and pressed by Vacuum Compress Machine so
that the cram may come in shape. After this, this Paneer piece is cut in three pieces and put in
cold water. And after some time, these pieces are taken out from the cold water and sent for
packing.
30 | P a g e
SHRIKHAND MAKING PROCESS
To make shrikhand, some preliminary activities are done. First of all, curd is poured in the
white delicate cloth and tied. After this, this cloth with curd is hanged at a high place and left for
12-14 hours. By this, all the water in the curd, fall on the floor. And this creamy curd is put into
the utensil and half of it; sugar is added in it and some Essence is added for particular aroma
and shook it will till sugar is not melt. This way the Shrikhand is made.
First of all, we need curd for making lassie. There is a big machine fro making lassie. This
machine is called “Lassie making Machine”. There is tank on this machine, the mixture of curd,
sugar, essence, flavour and water is poured in it and this machine automatically shakes this
mixture. This well shacked mixture is called Lassie. The role of polythene is fixed behind the
machine; it automatically takes the polythene for packing chhach. And particular Gms. that
have been set for filling, this machine automatically packs and throws the pack outside.
First of all, we need curd for making chhach. There is a big machine for making chhach. This
machine is called “Chhach making Machine”. There is tank on this machine, the mixture of
curd, sugar and water is poured in it and this machine automatically shakes this mixture. This
well shacked mixture is called Chhach. For making “Namkeen Chhach” some salt is added into
this mixture and same process for making it. The role of polythene is fixed behind the machine;
it automatically takes the polythene for packing chhach. And particular Gms that have been set
for filling, this machine automatically packs and throws the pack outside.
31 | P a g e
DAHI (CURD) MAKING PROCESS
First of all, a can of milk is taken. For making Dahi (Curd), tone milk is used. And some
percentage of Curd is added in this milk can. And this mixture is poured into pouch of 200
Gms. And sealed by “Vacuum sealing machine” and put into a duple board of carton. And this
carton is put into the heat room. The temperature of this room is 37°C. At his temperature, the
bacteria which are liable for making Dahi (Curd), grows more and this way Dahi (Curd) is made
fast & in easier way. In this room, there is a special arrangement of Filaments Rods and
Position of a Fan to make the temperature of this room 37° C.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
33 | P a g e
marketing research is a process of involves a number of interrelated activities which overlap and
do rigidly follow a particular sequence. It consists of the following steps:
Research design
Sample design
Data collection
Data analysis
Reporting of findings
1) Project Title:-
A project Study Report on “Product & Marketing Process Analysis of WRMUL Product at
Jodhpur Dairy and consumer awareness towards SARAS Product line”
34 | P a g e
2) Objective of Study:-
Exploratory research
Conclusive research
Conclusive studies attempts to determine the frequency with which something occurs or the
relationship between two phenomenons. Usually conclusive studies assume certain under
35 | P a g e
underlying characteristics of the market or have some precise statement of research
questions/hypothesis.
Sample design is a definite plan of obtaining some items from the whole population. The
sample design used in this project is two state sampling i.e. Cluster and convenience. In the
probability sampling methods, each items in the sample is chosen one at a time from a
complete list of universe elements. In marketing research practice, it will sometimes be more
expedient to select clusters or groups of universe elements, rather than to choose sample
items individually.
Sampling methods in which universe elements are chosen in groups ---- rather than
individually -- are called cluster-sampling methods. They are widely used in the sampling of
human populations. When no complete universe listing exists, a type of sampling is called area
sampling may be the only practically feasible form of probability sampling.
36 | P a g e
SAMPLING METHODS
Sample design is a definite plan of obtaining some items from the whole population. The
sample design used in this project is two state sampling i.e. cluster sampling and convenience
sampling. The whole city was divided into some geographical areas and I have chosen
Mandor, jalori gate. Nagori gate, Railway station, Sardarpura etc. . . . The total sample size
was 160.
CLUSTER SAMPLING
Here the whole area is divided into some geographical area and a definite number of
consumers were to be surveyed.
CONVINIENCE SAMPLING
This type of sampling is chosen purely on the basis of convenience and according to
convenience. I visited Garden, Parks, Temple, Superstores and Theatres.
Sources of information:-
a) Primary Data: - Primary data’s are those which are gathered specially for the project at
hand, directly – e.g. through questionnaires & interviews. Primary data sources include
company salesman, middleman, consumers, buyers, trade association’s executives & other
businessman & even competitors.
b) Secondary Data: - These are generally published sources, which have been collected
originally for some other purpose. Source are internal company records, government
37 | P a g e
publication, reports & publication, reports & journals, trade, professional and business
associations publications & reports.
Methods for collecting data: - If it is found that the secondary data cannot be of much
use, collection of primary data become necessary. Three widely used methods of gathering
primary data are
A) Survey Method: - In this method, information gathered directly from individual respondents,
either through personal interviews or through mail questionnaires or telephone interviews.
B) Observation Method: - The research data are gathered through observing and recording
their actions in a marketing situation. This technique is highly accurate. It is rather an
expensive technique.
C) Experimental Method: - This method involves carrying out a small scale trial solution to a
problem, while at the same time, attempting to control all factors relevant to the problem. The
main assumption here is that the test conditions are essentially the same as those that will be
encountered later when conclusions derived from the experiment are applied to a broader
marketing area.
D) The Panel Research: - In this technique the same group of respondents is contacted for
more then one occasion; and the information obtained to find out if there has been any in their
taste demand or they want any special quality, color, size, packing in the product.
6) Scope of Study - The study was carried out in the Jodhpur for WRMUL products.

FACT & FINDINGS
The promotional effort by unions is satisfactory but union should promote the different variants
and there is need to educate consumer about various SARAS products.
There are many places where the parlor and booths are not available for saras products such
as Mawa, Shrikhand, Paneer, lassi etc.
Except milk & ghee not so much people are aware of SARAS Product-line.
The replacement policy of leaked pack and un fresh products is not properly in place. It takes
little more time to settle the claim.
Low profit margin for retailers and agents on some SARAS products. so Due to low margin
retailers are losing interest in promoting SARAS products.
There are not proper no. booths and parlors available at prime location for purchasing SARAS

marketing efforts and is also luring the agents to other mild brands. The replacement policy
of leaked pack is not properly in place. It takes little more time to settle the claim.

THE MARKETING STRATEGY IN FUTURE
Business today faces three major challenges and opportunities: globalization advantages in
technology and deregulation.
Effective marketing can take many forms - it can been entrepreneurial, formulated, or
entrepreneurial and markets are involved in marketing many types of entities: goods, services,
experiences, events, persons, places, properties, organizations, information, and ideas.
Marketers are skilled at managing demand: they seek to influence the level, timing, and
composition of demand. To do this, they face a host of decisions; from major ones such as,
what features a new product should have a minor one such as the color of packaging. They
also operate in four different market places: consumer, business, global and non-profit
For each chosen target market, a firm develops a marketing offering that is positioned in the
minds of buyers as delivering some central benefits. Marketers must try to understand the
target market's needs, wants, and demands: a product or offering will be successful if it
delivers value and satisfaction to the target buyer. The term market covers various grouping of
customers. Today there are physical market places and digital market spaces, as well as mega
markets.
Exchange involves obtaining a desired product from some one by offering something in return.
A transition is a trade of values between two or more parties: it involves at least two things of
value, agreed-upon conditions, a time of agreement and a place of agreement. In the most
generic sense, marketers seek to elicit a behavioral response from another party: a purchase,
a vote, active membership, and adoption of cause.
Relationship of marketing has the aim of building long-term mutually satisfying relationships
with key parties-customers, suppliers, distribution-in order to earn and retain their long-term
preference and business. The ultimate outcome of relationship marketing is the building of
unique company asset called a marketing network.

Marketers operate in a task environment and broad environment. They face competition from
actual and potential rival offerings and substitutes. The set of tool marketer’s use to illicit the
desired response from their target markets is called the marketing mix.
There are five competing concepts under which organizations can choose to conduct their
business: the production concept, the product concept, the selling concept, the marketing
concept, and the social marketing concept. The first three concepts are of limited usefulness
today. The marketing concepts hold the key to achieving organizational goals consisting of
determines the needs and wants of target markets and delivering the desired satisfactions
more effectively and efficiently than competitors. It starts with a well-defined market, focuses
on customer needs, and co-ordinates all the activities that affect the customers.
In recent years, some have questioned whether the marketing concept is appropriate
philosophy in a world faced with major demographic and environmental challenges. The social
marketing concept holds the organization’s task is to determining the needs, wants, and
interest of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfactory more effectively and efficiently
than competitors in a way that preserves or enhances the customer's and the society's well
being. The calls upon marketers to balance three considerations: company profits, consumer
