The National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) representatives also introduced farmers to the FPO (Farmer Producer Organization) “Shaheed Kartar Singh Sarabha Kisaan Utpadan Sangathan, Ferozepur.” Joint Registrar Umesh Kumar emphasized the importance of cooperative societies and encouraged farmers to focus on high-quality milk production, indigenous cattle rearing, and organic farming.
Several cooperative societies and farms were felicitated for their contributions in milk supply, cattle feed sales, and mineral mixture usage. Notably, Hardev Kaur Kang, a female dairy farmer from Fidde village, was recognized for the highest milk production. She was also recently honoured by the Indian Dairy Association for her significant contributions to the dairy sector.
