Visit of Delegation from Pakistan

A 12 member delegation from Pakistan comprising top officials from the Govt. of Pakistan, Dairy Pakistan, the Private Sector and farmers visited Anand during Feb. 9th and 11th to study the Amul model of cooperative dairying. They had fruitful discussions with Dr. V. Kurien, Chairman and Mr. B. M. Vyas, Managing Director, GCMMF.

During their stay, they visited Amul Dairy and Museum, GCMMF, IRMA, Vidya Dairy, IDMC, Amul Research and Development Association and Village Dairy Cooperative Society.

Dr. Baz Mohammad Junejo, Secretary, Livestock Department, Govt. of Sindh, Pakistan felt that the success story of Dr. Kurien in dairy development in India was a matchless one. He said "not only in the interest of poor farmers, but Dr. Kurien has initiated developmental work for India and Asian countries. We wish to replicate this idea for dairy development in Pakistan. Let us hope for success."
