1. Spread, reach & impact potential
TMS has enormous size, spread, reach & impact potential
Est. 1700 vendors in Khammam, A/cs for 61% of prodn & 91% of mktd in the Dist. Serves 53 – 57 % of producing HHs. even where all the three channels operate.
98% of HHs in Sathu; 89% in Kham. & 42 % in Vijayawada purchase from TMS. Market share 99%, 88% & 42%

Key Findings and Actions
2. Quality of milk
• All producer samples conformed to legal standards
• < half of vendor samples conformed to quality stds
• 67% cons. samples in Khammam, 88 % in Sathuppally & 55 % in vijayawada did not conform to legal standards
• 50% vendor samples carried neutralizers in lean
• Part of evening milk gets mixed with morning milk
• Very short MBRT (1 hr to 5 min)
• 60-74% consumers feel TMS milk to be thick, creamy & tasty
• Legal standards, difficult to be adhered to

Key Findings and Actions
3. Price of Milk
• Producer price lower at Rs. 11.20, price spread 51- 59%
• Existence of a sort of price cartel
• Non-price incentives (wakeup call, milking, accepts froth, doorstep collection, loan, grocery supply, flexible quantity)
• Flexible sale Price. Correlation between price & milk solids
4. Scale of operation
• Low scale – 45% < 20 lpd, 25% > 50lpd, Avg – 38 lpd
• Procurement takes 2- 4 hrs, total cycle 5-6 hrs, high labour input per unit quantity
• Quantity balancing at each vendor level
CALPI
Key Findings and Actions
5. Stakeholder institution
• Lacks stakeholder organizations/ platforms
• Lacks awareness /capacity building/ training
• Lacks pressure groups & enabling regulation
6.Basic infrastructure • No infrastructure for testing, bulking, processing, storage, packing, preservation
• Unsuitable cans, carriers & vehicles
• Cannot absorb high costs & long cycle timeTMS remains primitive with low efficiency, quality & productivity

Traditional Milk Sector - Tapping Synergies
‘Vendor’ & ‘traditional sector’ are highly maligned
TMS is likely to stay for many decades to come
Is too vast & potential to be neglected
Law alone cannot ensure conformity to food stds
-ve impact of low price, income & quality on poor
Purpose of AR is not promotion of ‘Vendors’, but improve market access, income, quality, productivity & accelerated & inclusive growth
Tap synergies to accelerate production & attract competition for the benefit of all
CALPI
Traditional Milk Sector (TMS)
Further Improvements
Non-negotiable: Conformation to the food laws of the country
1. Mobile quality testing / tamper proof sample bottle
2. Redesigning of milk cans, carriers & two wheelers
3. Cream separation & fat balancing instead of dilution
4. Low volume, low cost, low cycle time instant milk chilling
5. Low volume, low cost milk pasteurization
6. Packing, labeling and branding
Action Research on Traditional Milk MarketPolicy Elements 1. Recognize TMS role in market access & livelihood security
2. Review criteria for coverage under dairy programmes – commercial route and development route
3. Provide infrastructure (low volume, low cost, instant) for testing, bulking, chilling, fat balancing, packing & storage
4. Review milk quality standards
5. Capacity building/ training & enabling quality regulation
7. Linkage & coordination for Livestock Service delivery
8. Review viability of smallholder milk production /supply of animals under poverty alleviation programmes
