Current Affairs - State - Discussion

The Assam government has introduced a milk subsidy scheme aimed at enhancing the dairy sector in the state. Through this initiative, dairy farmers will receive a subsidy of ₹5 per litre of milk, provided the milk is supplied to cooperative societies for further processing. The primary objectives of the scheme are to increase dairy production, raise the income levels of farmers, and encourage a rural dairy revolution. By supporting local producers and strengthening cooperative channels, Assam seeks to improve the sustainability and profitability of dairy farming in the region.
