== Background ==
With the production of 241.939 lacs M.T. of milk during the year 2013–14, Uttar Pradesh is the largest [[milk]] producing state in India. Still the average capacity of milk yielding animals is low in comparison to other states mainly, the reason being less availability of high yielding germ plasm animals in the state. Hence the need for Kamdhenu Yojna, which would ensure availability of high yielding animals to the farmers [http://animalhusb.up.nic.in/Establistment%20of%20Kamdhenu%20.pdf] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160918100456/http://animalhusb.up.nic.in/Establistment%20of%20Kamdhenu%20.pdf |date=18 September 2016 }}

== Objective ==
* To safeguard creation and accessibility of high quality milk producing animals in Uttar Pradesh.
* To thrive high yielding germ plasm milk producing animals in Uttar Pradesh.
* To make sure the accessibility to farmers of high milk yielding animals in the state.
* ''Mini Kamdhenu'' & ''Micro Kamdhenu Scheme'' has been brought in existence to ensure assistance to the small and marginal farmers as well.
