1.1.1 The World Dairy Situation:

The International Dairy Federation (IDF) last month released its World Dairy Situation 2011 report during the World Dairy Summit in Parma, Italy. This annual report highlights global trends in farm milk production, dairy processing and world trade in dairy products and brings strategic insights about the growing and dynamic world dairy market for use by producers of farm milk, dairy product manufacturers and end users of dairy products around the globe.

World farm milk production from all species of animals in 2010 grew by 1.8 percent. Milk from dairy cows, which represents 83 percent of the world total farm milk production of 721 million metric tons (mmt), grew by 1.6 percent in 2010, while buffalo milk production grew by 3.1 percent (and accounts for 13 percent of total world farm milk production). This growth in farm milk resulted in increases in world processed production of all major dairy products.

\After decreasing slightly in 2009, global per capita milk and dairy production grew by 1

percent in 2010 to average 104.6 kilograms (milk equivalent). World regions with the largest share of world milk consumption include Asia (39 percent of global dairy consumption), Europe (29 percent) and North America (13 percent). However, according to the IDF report, South America experienced the largest rate of growth in dairy consumption followed by Asia.

World trade in dairy products continues to grow and in 2010 accounted for over 7 percent of farm milk production, or 51.9 mmt. This was an increase of 9 percent above the previous year. Most of these dairy products in world trade came from the top 4 exporters, with the European Union, New Zealand, United States and Australia accounting for 73 percent of world dairy exports.

World dairy market prices in 2010 and early 2011 recovered from the lower levels seen in late 2008 and early 2009. IDF reports that farm milk prices in the United States in 2010 were 27 percent higher than year-earlier and increased 22 percent in New Zealand and 15 percent in the European Union.




The full report includes many more details about world trends in milk production, processing, trade and consumption, as well as farm milk and wholesale dairy product prices. In addition, the chapter entitled “World Dairy Market Forum” includes detailed articles from leading world dairy experts on topics like “Trends in Milk Production Worldwide,” “Trade Barriers in the Dairy Sector,” and “Trends and Characteristics of Demand for Dairy Products in Developing Countries.” Finally, the report includes more detailed reports on the state of the dairy industry in 48 individual country.




1.1.2 Indian Dairy Industry--A Profile:

India’s dairy sector is expected to triple its production in the next 10 years in veiw of expanding potential for export to Europe and the West. Morever with WTO regulations expected to come into force in coming years all the develope countries which are amoung big exporters today would have to withdraw the support and subsidy to their domestic milk product sector. Also India today is the lowest cost producer of per litre of milk in the world, at 27 cents, compared with the US’.

63 cent. Also to take advantage of this lowest cost of milk production and increasing production in the country multinational companies are planning to expand their activities here. Some of those milk producers have already obtained quality standard certificates from the authorities. This will help them in marketing their products in foreign countries in processed form.

The urban market for milk products is expected to grow at an accelerated pace of around33% per annum to around Rs.83, 500 crores by year 2010. This growth is going to come from the greater emphasis on the processed food sector and also by increase in the conversation of milk into milk products. By 2010, the value of Indian dairy produce is expected to be Rs 10, 00,000 million.Presently the market is valued at around Rs7, 00,000mn.




1.1.3 Co – Operative Unions:

Backward integration of the process led the cooperatives to advances in animal husbandry and veterinary practice. The system succeeded mainly because it provides an assured market at remunerative prices for producers' milk besides acting as a channel to market the production enhancement package. What's more, it does not disturb the agro-system of the farmers. It also enables the consumer an access to high quality milk and milk products. Contrary to the traditional system, when the profit of the business was cornered by the middlemen, the system ensured that the profit goes to the participants for their socio-economic upliftment and common good.

Recently the Indian cooperative movement got a much needed facelift. With competition snapping at its heels, the sector which has been governed by arcane laws until the recent past will see a special provision inserted in the companies Act, 1956. All the cooperative unions will be re- christened cooperative companies; they will come under the purview of the registrar of companies, instead of the registrar of cooperatives.

Dairy cooperatives account for the major share of processed liquid milk marketed in the country. Milk is processed and marketed by 170 milk producer’s cooperative unions, which federate into 15 state co-operative milk marketing federations.

The dairy board's programmes and activities seek to strengthen the functioning of dairy cooperatives, as producer-owned and controlled organizations. NDDB supports the development of dairy co-operatives by providing them financial assistance and technicalexpertise, ensuring a better future for India's farmers.Over the years, brands created by cooperatives have become synonymous with quality and value. Brands like Amul (GCMMF), Vijaya (AP), Verka (Punjab), Saras (Rajasthan). Nandini (Karnataka), Milma (Kerala) and Gokul (Kolhapur) are among those that have earned customer confidence.




Some of the major dairy cooperative federations include:-

Andhra Pradesh Dairy Development Co-operative Federation Ltd (APDDCF)

Bihar State Co-operative Milk Producers Federation Ltd (COMPFED)

Gujarat co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd (GCMMF)

Haryana Dairy Development Cooperative Federation Ltd. (HDDCF)

1.1.4 The Dairy Cooperative Network:

Includes 170 milk unions

Operates in over 338 districts

Apart from making India self sufficient in milk, these dairy co-operatives have established our country as the largest milk-producing nation in the world.




1 .2 The O r g a n i z a t i o n :

1.2.1 Introduction & History:

In the year 1946 the first milk union was established. This union was started with 250 liters of milk per day. In the year 1955 AMUL was established. In the year 1946 the union was known as KAIRA DISTRICT CO-OPERATIVE MILK PRODUCERS’ UNION. This union selected the brand name AMUL in 1955.

The brand name Amul means “AMULYA”. This word derived form the Sanskrit word “AMULYA” which means “PRICELESS”. A quality control expert in Anand had suggested the brand name “AMUL”. Amul products have been in use in millions of homes since 1946. Amul Butter, Amul Milk Powder, Amul Ghee, Amulspray, Amul Cheese, Amul Chocolates, Amul Shrikhand, Amul Ice cream, Nutramul, Amul Milk and Amulya have made Amul a leading food brand in India. (The total sale is Rs. 6 billion in 2005). Today Amul is a symbol of many things like of the high-quality products sold at reasonable prices, of the genesis of a vast co-operative network, of the triumph of indigenous technology, of the marketing savvy of a farmers' organization. And have a proven model for dairy development (Generally known as “ANAND PATTERN”).

In the early 40’s, the main sources of earning for the farmers of Kaira district were farming and selling of milk. That time there was high demand for milk in Bombay. The main supplier of the milk was Polson dairy limited, which was a privately owned company and held monopoly over the supply of milk at Bombay from the Kaira district. This system leads to exploitation of poor and illiterates’ farmers by the private traders. The traders used to beside the prices of milk and the farmers were forced to accept it without uttering a single word, when the exploitation became intolerable, the farmers were frustrated.

They collectively appealed to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who was a leading activist in the freedom movement. Sardar Patel advised the farmers to sell the milk on their own by establishing a cooperative union, Instead of supplying milk to private traders. Sardar Patel sent the farmers to Shri Morarji Desai in order to gain his co-operation and help. Shri Desai held a meeting at Samarkha village near Anand, on 4th January 1946. He advised the farmers to form a society for collection of the milk.




These village societies would collect the milk themselves and would decide the prices at which they can sell the milk. The district union was also form to collect the milk from such village co-operative societies and to sell them. It was also resolved that the Government should be asked to buy milk from the union.

However, the govt. did not seem to help farmers by any means. It gave the negative response by turning down the demand for the milk. To respond to this action of govt., the farmers of Kaira district went on a milk strike. For 15 whole days not a single drop of milk was sold to the traders. As a result the Bombay milk scheme was severely affected. The milk commissioner of Bombay then visited Anand to assess the situation. Having seemed the condition, he decided to fulfill the farmers demand.

Thus their cooperative unions were forced at the village and district level to collect and sell milk on a cooperative basis, without the intervention of Government. Mr. Verghese Kurien showed main interest in establishing union who was supported by Shri Tribhuvandas




Patel who lead the farmers in forming the Cooperative unions at the village level. The Kaira district milk producers union was thus established in ANAND and was registered formally on 14th December 1946. Since farmers sold all the milk in Anand through a co-operative union, it was commonly resolved to sell the milk under the brand name AMUL.

At the initial stage only 250 liters of milk was collected every day. But with the growing awareness of the benefits of the cooperativeness, the collection of milk increased. Today Amul collect 11 lakhs liters of milk every day. Since milk was a perishable commodity it becomes difficult to preserve milk for a longer period. Besides when the milk was to be collected from the far places, there was a fear of spoiling of milk. To overcome this problem the union thought out to develop the chilling unit at various junctions, which would collect the milk and could chill it, so as to preserve it for a longer period. Thus, today Amul has more than 150 chilling centers in various villages. Milk is collected from almost 1073 societies.

With the financial help from UNICEF, assistance from the govt. of New Zealand under the Colombo plan, of Rs. 50 millions for factory to manufacture milk powder and butter was planned. Dr.Rajendra Prasad, the president of India laid the foundation on November 15, 1954. Shri Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the prime minister of India declared it open at Amul dairy on November 20, 1955.

LITERATURE REVIEW




LITERATURE REVIEW:

Malaysian and Thai smokers' beliefs about the harmfulness of ‘light’ and menthol cigarettes.B King1, H-H Yong1,R Borland1,M Omar2,A A Ahmad2,B Sirirassamee3,S Hamann4,R J O'Connor5, M Bansal-Travers5, T Elton-Marshall6,W B Lee6,D Hammond7,J Thrasher8.2010.

This study explored the extent to which Malaysian and Thai smokers believe “light” and menthol cigarettes are less harmful than “regular” cigarettes and the correlates of these beliefs.

29% of Malaysian respondents reported currently smoking light cigarettes and 14% menthols, with 19% agreeing that lights are less harmful and 16% agreeing that menthols are less harmful. 38% of Thai respondents reported currently smoking light cigarettes and 19% menthols, with 46% agreeing that lights are less harmful and 35% agreeing that menthols are less harmful. Malaysian smokers reporting current use of light or menthol cigarettes were more likely to believe that they are less harmful. Reported use of lights did not relate to beliefs for Thai respondents. The belief that light and/or menthol cigarettes are less harmful was strongly related to the belief that they have smoother smoke.

The experience of smoother smoke is likely to produce some level of belief in reduced harm, regardless of how brands are labelled and whether or not Federal Trade Commission FTC/International Organisation for Standardisation tar, nicotine and carbon monoxide yield figures are used.

The influence of promotional activity and different electoral systems on voter turnout: A study of the UK and German Euro elections.Amy Whitelock, Jeryl Whitelock, Jennifer van Heerde.2010.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate EU election data for the UK and Germany and examine the influence of promotional activity (party campaigning) and the different voting systems prevailing in these two countries – first past the post (FPTP) in the UK and proportional representation (PR) in Germany – on voter turnout

The Interpretation suggest a general link between electoral systems, party campaigning and voter turnout. Individuals are more likely to turn out under PR systems, while “party




campaigning” – including door-to-door canvassing and leafleting – also had a substantial positive effect on self-reported turnout.

The Impact of Information Technology on Productivity in Developing Countries.

Ronia Hawash, Guenter Lang.2010

The information technology (IT) revolution has resulted in a digital divide evolving between nations that have the skills and capability to absorb these new technologies, and those without. Since developing countries have assumed that the adoption of IT may be their key engine of growth, they have exerted a lot of efforts in an attempt to overcome this digital gap. This study tests whether higher IT adoption results in higher total factor productivity (TFP) growth of developing countries or not, by conducting a panel data regression for 33 developing countries over the period 2002-2006. It also examines the relative importance of IT adoption in comparison to other technological aspects such as: Technology creation, technology transfer, and enhancing individuals’ technological absorptive capacities through higher educational levels. The study concludes that IT adoption and higher educational attainment tend to relatively be the most significant factors affecting TFP growth in developing countries.

Keynote paper From marketing mix to relationship marketing - towards a paradigm shift in marketing. Christian Grönroos.2010

Discusses the nature and sometimes negative consequences of the dominating marketing paradigm of today, marketing mix management, and furthermore discusses how modern research into, for example, industrial marketing and services marketing as well as customer relationship economics shows that another approach to marketing is required. This development is supported by evolving trends in business, such as strategic partnerships, alliances and networks. Suggests relationship marketing, based on relationship building and management, as one emerging new marketing paradigm of the future. Concludes that the simplicity of the marketing mix paradigm, with its Four P model, has become a strait-jacket, fostering toolbox thinking rather than an awareness that marketing is a multi-faceted social process, and notes that marketing theory and customers are the victims of today’s mainstream marketing thinking.

Fuel mix diversification incentives in liberalized electricity markets: A Mean–Variance Portfolio theory approach ?Fabien A. Roquesa, David M. Newberyb, William J. Nuttallc.2007




Monte Carlo simulations of gas, coal and nuclear plant investment returns are used as inputs of a Mean–Variance Portfolio optimization to identify optimal base load generation portfolios for large electricity generators in liberalized electricity markets. We study the impact of fuel, electricity, and CO2 price risks and their degree of correlation on optimal plant portfolios. High degrees of correlation between gas and electricity prices – as observed in most European markets – reduce gas plant risks and make portfolios dominated by gas plant more attractive. Long-term power purchase contracts and/or a lower cost of capital can rebalance optimal portfolios towards more diversified portfolios with larger shares of nuclear and coal plants.

Market orientation and business performance: some European evidence.Leyland Pitt, Albert Caruana, Pierre R. Berthon.2008.

While market orientation has almost been taken for granted by both academics and some practitioners, attempts to define and operationalize the construct have been very limited. Moreover, efforts to link market orientation to business performance have been few and far between. Recent work in the USA has led to the development of a scale to measure market orientation in organizations, and this measure has also been positively linked to performance. Describes efforts to measure the level of market orientation in samples of British and Maltese firms. Confirms the reliability of the measure, and tests some aspects of its validity. While the link between market orientation and firm performance is not a strong one, it is indeed significant. Discusses implications of the studies, and identifies some avenues for further research.

The character and significance of strategy process research.Andrew M. Pettigrew.2007.

This essay discusses the character and significance of strategy process research. Process research in strategic management is paradigmatically diverse and empirically complex. Strategy process research has been narrow in its focus and its undoubted contribution has sometimes been obscured by the lack of explicit discourse about its analytical foundations. The essay draws on a wide range of social science ideas to lay out a set of internally consistent insights and assumptions to guide thinking and empirical inquiry about the analysis of process issues in strategic management. The essay also provides a guide to the eight papers contained in this special issue.




Corporate economic performance: Diversification strategy versus market structure. H. Kurt Christensen, Cynthia A. Montgomery.2006

This paper incorporates both diversification strategy and market structure variables in a study of corporate economic performance. A subsample of 128 firms from Rumelt's 1974 study was updated and utilized to investigate the possibility that market structure variables might moderate or confound the diversification/performance relationship he reported. Study results indicate that performance differences could be demonstrated for some of Rumelt's categories, but, across the range of categories, a hypothesis of performance differences was rejected. As expected, categories associated with distinctly high or distinctly low economic performance were also associated with significant differences in a series of market structure variables.

Alternative paradigms for manufacturing strategy .C.A. Voss.2008

Over the past 20 years, the field of manufacturing strategy has developed many different approaches. Argues that there are three distinct paradigms in manufacturing strategy: competing through manufacturing; strategic choices in manufacturing; and best practice. Each is reviewed and its strengths and weaknesses discussed. Finally, the relationship between them is discussed and a cycle of manufacturing strategy is proposed.

Attitudinal constructs towards sponsorship: Scale development using three global sporting events. Myung-Soo Lee , Dennis M. Sandler, David Shani.2010

Sponsorship has seen a rapid growth in recent years in both the dollars devoted to it and its prominence as a legitimate element of a company’s promotional mix. As traditional media have become more expensive and cluttered, sponsorship is viewed as a cost-effective alternative. As an element of the promotional mix, sponsorship has been a stepchild when it comes to a careful understanding of how it works and its effect on consumers. While the promotional element of advertising has been carefully researched, sponsorship has rarely undergone systematic study. It is usually mentioned as “war stories” of specific examples which worked well for a company. Discusses the definitional dilemma of sponsorship, and proposes a revised definition. As a step towards better understanding the effects of ssponsorship on consumers, develops and empirically tests scales for three attitudinal constructs: attitude towards the event; attitude towards commercialization; and attitude towards behavioural intent. Results show that the three




constructs consistently appear across three global sports events. Discusses future research agenda and managerial implications.

A brand orientation typology for SMEs: a case research approach. Ho Yin Wong, Bill Merrilees.2008.

The paper reveals that the theory identifies the ladder of SME brand orientation, moving from minimal brand orientation, to embryonic brand orientation to integrated brand orientation. Further, it is suggested that most SMEs will be on the lower steps of the ladder. A model of the brand strategy process has been formulated, specifying links between brand barriers, brand distinctiveness, brand orientation and brand-marketing performance. The study puts forward some propositions about the pre-conditions to move higher up the ladder, particularly to an integrated brand orientation.

The brand images of tourism destinations: a study of the saliency of organic images.

Graham Hankinson.2008

Assesses the relative saliency of image attributes associated with history, heritage and culture in shaping the perceptions of places as tourism destinations. Such images tend to have been formed over a long period of time and result from exposure to communication processes largely outside marketing's core sphere of influence such as education, literature and the arts. Images formed in this way are referred to in this paper as organic images. The research used the repertory grid technique developed by George A. Kelly in the context of Personal Construct Theory combined with depth interviews to elicit the attributes associated with the images of 25 destinations in the UK. The study identified 11 categories of image attribute. Those associated with a destination's history, heritage and culture were found to be the second most salient category. The implications of these Interpretation are discussed.

Content analysis of 100 company Web sites.Monica Perry, Charles Bodkin, .2010

Discusses the results of content analysis of the Web sites of Fortune 100 companies, carried out to identify the mix of promotional activities on their Web sites. Specifically, we performed a content analysis of Web sites utilizing categories representing a range of marketing communications, including: communicating product, pricing and dealer/retail location information, related and unrelated advertisements, sales promotion, direct marketing, basic




company information and public relations. We also identified differences between and among industries based on standard industrial classification (SIC) codes. We found considerable variability in how members of the Fortune 100 used their Web sites. The Web sites ranged from very simple ones that focused on basic company information, such as company history, to quite complex Web sites that incorporated a mix of promotional elements, such as press releases, advertisements, games, free gifts and pricing information.

Assessing the effectiveness of shopping mall promotions: customer analysis.Andrew G. Parsons.2010.

Common promotional activities employed by shopping mall marketers were ranked by a sample of customers on their likelihood of encouraging increases in the two key performance indicators used by shopping malls – sales and visits. Results suggest clear distinctions between sales drivers and visit drivers and show possible combinations that would be effective in generating optimum customer behaviour. Some traditional promotions (fashion shows and product displays) are shown to be poor performers in generating either response, whilst school/community displays appear to be encouraging non-customer visits. Whilst mall-wide sales are the preferred promotion, a combination of general entertainment and price-based promotions are found to be a strong alternative way to encourage visits and spending. Actual sales, visits, and promotional types for a three-month period were analysed to assess the degree to which customers’ behaviour matched stated behaviour likelihood, with supportive results.

Partnering relationship activities: Building theory from case study research.

Elizabeth J. Wilson, Richard P. Vlosky.2010

Both qualitative and quantitative techniques are used to gain an understanding of partnering activities in manufacturer-distributor relationships. This article is a meta-analytic summary of data gained from semi-structured interviews conducted by multiple teams of researchers. The process of building theory from case study research is illustrated in the context of business marketing relationships using guidelines developed by Eisenhardt (1989). Based on the results of our analyses, partnering activities are generally geared more toward marketing, planning, and communication between firms. Surprisingly, there were few reported incidences of partnering activities in logistics and information exchange (i.e., electronic access to information between firms).




Targeting and timing promotion al activities: An agent-based model for the takeoff of new products. S.A. Delrea, W. Jagera , T.H.A. Bijmolta, M.A. Janssenb.2007

Many marketing efforts focus on promotionalactivities that support the launch of new products. Promotional strategies may play a crucial role in the early stages of the product life cycle, and determine to a large extent the diffusion of a new product. This paper proposes an agent-based model to simulate the efficacy of different promotional strategies that support the launch of a product. The article in particular concentrates on the targeting and the timing of the promotions. The results of the simulation experiments indicate that promotionalactivities highly affect diffusion dynamics. The Interpretation indicate that: (1) the absence of promotional support and/or a wrong timing of the promotions may lead to a failure of product diffusion; (2) the optimal targeting strategy is to address distant, small and cohesive groups of consumers; and (3) the optimal timing of a promotion differs between durable categories (white goods, such as kitchens and laundry machines, versus brown goods, such as TVs and CDs players). These results contribute to the planning and the management of promotional strategies supporting new product launches.

CHAPTER-8RECCOMENDATION

RECCOMENDATION




In order to make the awareness among the customers in the city of Ahmedabad , the following recommendation regarding newly launched Amul Pro, particularly regarding Advertisements, promotional policies are suggested below:

First and foremost to make awareness among all over the cities the amul should be more focused on TV advertisements, as it is the best tool through which customer can get aware of newly launched product.

Along with the APOs and MFS, Amul Pro should have easy availability at most of the kirana stores and other general stores in major areas of the cities so that consumer can get awareness or even the sale can also increase.

As it is newly launched product the company should go the production of small pack of 200kg along with 500kg, as customers are not aware of the taste.

The company should take into consider the problem of jar from many customers that it is not getting properly fix and during monsoon the problem arises among the consumer.

The company should also focus on the increase of the sale & on the promotional activities of the Amul Pro globally, the market of amul pro should be spread nationalized.

To make more awareness the company should give some commission to the retailers for the selling of the product and to post the banners of Amul Pro in the stores.
