2wThe model dairy village at Kamalamai is a good program for milk production with cow breed improvements. There is already some milk surplus situation as per the milk demand. So, care should be taken to link milk production with marketing. In case if there is problem of milk marketing due to surplus situation, the whole program may be affected?
