UP prepares Dairy Master Plan to promote indigenous cow breeds, increase milk production

Business To Business, New Delhi, 17th May 2026: Yogi Adityanath’s government has prepared a major Dairy Master Plan in Uttar Pradesh aimed at promoting indigenous cow breeds and increasing milk production.
According to a state government statement issued on Sunday, four major schemes have been implemented across the state to strengthen the rural economy and encourage indigenous cattle rearing.
The initiative is being referred to as “Operation-4” because it is centred around four flagship schemes:

  • Mukhyamantri Swadeshi Gau Samvardhan Yojana
  • Mukhyamantri Pragatisheel Pashupalak Protsahan Yojana
  • Nandini Krishak Samriddhi Yojana
  • Mini Nandini Krishak Samriddhi Yojana
Under these schemes, dairy units with two to 25 cows are being offered subsidies worth several lakh rupees.
The government said the programme is intended to boost milk production, support livestock farmers and improve rural incomes while conserving indigenous cattle breeds.
