Internet based Dairy Information System – A business expansion tool
NDDB initiated an Internet-based Dairy Information System (i-DIS) with a view to provide a platform through which all the unions and federations can share their data with other unions and also a unique opportunity for each union to compare its performance with other contemporary unions on varied performance parameters.
The system enables cooperative milk unions across the country to share key information such as number of village dairy cooperatives societies & their members, quantum of milk procured & sold, milk products made & sold and technical inputs supplied among others.
Around 198 milk unions, 29 marketing dairies, 54 cattle feed plants and 15 federations under cooperative ambit participate in this information network. Considering the importance of taking informed policy decisions, many unions use this system.
