3) Of India’s 100-million-plus dairy farmers, more than 70 million hold 2-3 milch animals per head. The cooperative movement brought the farmers together and allowed them to organize themselves at scale.
4) Amul’s shareholders are 3.6 million dairy farmers and hence the benefits directly accrue to them. In addition, creating rural institutions & connecting them directly to viable consumer markets, while eliminating intermediaries has benefitted both consumers & producers equally.
5) The inception of Amul has not only created an enduring national brand but it has also transformed the dairy industry of India and given back manifold to the underserved communities in terms of socio-economic impact.
In the 40 years since its inception, IRMA has created over 3000 change-makers and its alumni have helped create some of the most enduring brands, institutions and initiatives in the underserved sectors in India including numerous livelihood missions.
