This study delves into the operations of dairy cooperative societies in Bidar district, shedding light on their critical role in India's dairy industry and their impact on rural livelihoods. With a sample size of 360 members from a population of 5998, the research employs statistical analysis, including Pearson chi-square tests, to investigate various aspects of these societies. Findings reveal high satisfaction levels among members regarding aspects like proper milk sample testing and maintenance of individual accounts. However, significant concerns arise around the effectiveness of election processes, technical support, and animal health services. To address these issues, the study recommends targeted interventions, including enhanced training for animal health services; optimization of the cattle feed supply chain, and improved access to fodder chaffing machines. Furthermore, structured training programs for producers and a reassessment of rates and incentives are proposed. The study also advocates for collaborative strategies to improve milk quality and suggests further research on member preferences concerning milching machines. Measures to streamline complaint resolution processes are deemed crucial. Overall, the implementation of these recommendations promises to fortify the dairy cooperative system in Bidar district, benefiting members and the wider community alike.
