Project Description

Region: Asia

Country: India

Location: Kolkata

Total Budget: $40,000

Area of Focus: Community economic development



Setting up of a Dairy Farm with Cows and Buffaloes at a Club sponsored RCC (about 50 Kms from Kolkata City) under the monitor of our club and our sponsored Rotary Community Corps. A co-operative society will be formed with villagers as members alongwith administrative membership for our club and our RCC. Each participating Villager will also contribute a small amount for his membership. The Dairy Farm will produce milk and sell in the local market, sweet-meat shops and Government Packed Milk Dairy Farms available in the vicinity. The market demand is tremendous. The Farm will also produce Cow Dung Gas and sell in the surrounding homes. The profit will be shared by the participating villagers (members). It will generate employment to the villagers in this farm, provide them with livelihood, bring prosperity to the poor villagers, and has a tremendous scope of growth and shall be self-sustaining on a continual long term basis. Number of people benefiting from this project: 100 approx.

It is a project which will benefit the needy poor villagers in a large manner for years to come. The villagers have skilled persons to run such a Dairy Farm. Employment to young people of the village will be a big boost for them to earn a livelihood.
