Abstract

This study evaluated regional disparities in Karnataka’s dairy development, despite its robust cooperative structure and significant milk procurement. A Dairy Development Index (DDI), comprising ten key indicators, was constructed and used with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Biplot techniques to categorize districts based on dairy progressiveness. Results revealed substantial regional disparity in dairy development. Southern districts exhibited higher dairy progressiveness compared to Northern and Malnad and Coastal regions. The study identified the key indicators, artificial insemination coverage, veterinary service availability, cooperative membership, and average daily milk yield as determinants of dairy development. The study advocates for proper planning and prioritization of indicators that determine the regional dairy progressiveness to reduce the variability and regional imbalances for additional milk production. The developed DDI indicating the dairy progressiveness at district level will be useful for proper micro level planning, prioritization, policy formulation to reduce the regional imbalances and leading to balanced dairy development across the Karnataka State.
