ABSTRACT

India, despite being the world’s largest milk producer, contributes merely 0.5% to global dairy exports - presenting a striking paradox in the global dairy trade. This article explores the underlying causes, including strong domestic demand, limited export competitiveness and quality compliance challenges. It reviews growth, instability and diversification trends, compares India with top global exporters like New Zealand and explores market dynamics. Finally, it offers strategic recommendations to strengthen India's dairy export potential through improved quality assurance, trade diplomacy, product innovation and global marketing.
