Objectives
Since Haryana aims to be the leading state of the country in milk production, Israel, a leading country in terms of its dairy management techniques, is a good model for Haryana to follow. Since Israel produces 5 to 6 times more milk per milk animal compared to India, Israel and India produce 36 liter and 6.868 liter milk per milch animal respectively, Israeli technical assistance is helpful for Haryana in becoming a leading state in terms of milk production.Centre of Excellence to be established in Hisar, Daily Pioneer, 20 December 2017.
