About this agriculture scheme
The CMWRS is a scheme aimed at boosting milk production and rejuvenating cooperative systems in five potential districts of Arunachal Pradesh. It targets 200 dairy farmers in a cooperative model to create subsistence means of livelihood for poor farmers and enhance organic agricultural productivity.
The CMWRS was approved in the 2018-19 budget announcement with a total outlay of Rs. 750.00 lakh. It aims to create a cooperative model of 200 dairy farmers in Pasighat, Rupa, Tezu, Chowkham, and Roing as milk production hubs. The scheme provides a minimum support price for milk procurement and strengthens the milk plant at Karsingsa and Rupa. The scheme also supports vermicompost facilities through 200 farmers to promote organic farming and the Green India campaign.
The implementation of the scheme is through the department of Animal Husbandry, Veterinary & Dairy Development with tie-ups with the Apex Bank and NABARD. Selection of farmers, formation of District Dairy Appraisal Committee (DDAC), and selection of beneficiaries on a cluster basis by the District Dairy Development Committee have already been formulated. The scheme helps in poverty alleviation, economic upliftment, minimizes human migration, ensures the health of the farmers through supplement milk production, and enhances organic agricultural/horticultural productivity.
