✓Who Is Eligible?

The National Programme for Dairy Development is designed to support dairy cooperatives and farmer producer organisations across India. This scheme is primarily focused on institutional entities rather than individual farmers, so your organization must be formally registered as either a dairy cooperative or a farmer producer organisation to apply. The programme operates on an all-India basis, meaning eligible organizations from any state in the country can participate and receive support. The scheme specifically aims to strengthen dairy infrastructure, so your organization should be involved in dairy production and related activities such as milk procurement, processing, or quality management. There are no specific age restrictions mentioned for applicants since this is an organizational scheme rather than an individual benefit scheme. Similarly, income criteria, caste-based preferences, and gender-based restrictions do not appear to apply to this scheme. For detailed and specific eligibility requirements, current application procedures, and to confirm your organization's qualification, visit the official Ministry of Animal Husbandry website at dahd.nic.in or contact the ministry directly for the most current information.
