Which scheme has been launched by the Uttar Pradesh

Solution

In a bid to make Uttar Pradesh a leading State in the field of milk development and milk production, the State Government has launched the Nand Baba Milk Mission scheme at a cost of ₹1,000 crore. The Nand Baba Milk Mission scheme, which was launched on June 6, has been implemented to provide milk producers the facility of selling their milk at a reasonable price in villages through dairy co-operative societies. Under this mission, it is proposed to form Dairy Farmer Producer Organisation [Dairy FPO] in order to facilitate sale of milk in producers’ villages itself. In the financial year 2023-24, there is a plan to set up five Dairy FPOs in as many districts of the State as a pilot project, in which women will also play a major role.
