Abstract
The study was conducted to compare and assess the productivity of dairy cattle and the corresponding household income from traditional and improved dairy management systems. The study area, falling under four regions, was randomly selected by selecting one from the east and one from the west of each region. The study also documented significant challenges encountered in improving dairy animal productivity.
A field survey is conducted in the Imphal East and West districts of Manipur. Data was collected from Milk producers, Dairy collection centres, production plants, chilling centres, truck drivers, Wholesalers, retailers, local collection centres and Cycle vendors. The study was conducted on 50 respondents collected from each category. The data was collected from November 2025 to December 2026 using a convenience sampling technique. The questions are based on the Nature of work, income per day, employment opportunities, working duration per day, and Income generation, as asked of respondents. General opinions about the dairy business and future growth prospects were collected from those respondents.
Keywords: employment, dairy market, and socio-economics.
