“IDF cares about the entire dairy chain, and we provide all science-based support to the dairy sector,” says Mr. Piercristiano Brazzale, President of the International Dairy Federation (IDF). This year’s summit will bring together technicians and experts from all over the world.”

According to Shri Meenesh Shah, Chairman of the National Dairy Development Board and Member Secretary of the Indian National Committee of the International Dairy Federation, the dairy sector is the most important sector for boosting India’s rural economy because it provides livelihood opportunities to about eight crore farmers, which is why the World Dairy Summit is important to Indian stakeholders.
Dairy is linked to not only farmers but also landless farmers. Milk is an important source of income in our country, according to Shri Shah.
