Plantation Campaign by Milk Producers of Dairy Cooperatives

摘要

Dairy farming like agriculture is dependent on nature. It draws resource from the nature and needs nature's support for its growth and development. Generally agriculture and dairying go hand in hand and are mutually beneficial activities in India. Over the years, due to intensive agriculture and deforestation various natural resources have been depleted in Gujarat. The state level apex body of dairy farmers in Gujarat gave a serious thought in this direction and discovered a novel idea for giving back to nature. The idea was "one member one tree" plantation on our 60th Independence day - 15th August 2007.
