However,veryfewstudies wereconducted on theeconomic aspects of dairy enterprise in Chittoor district. In this context, it is felt necessary to conduct a micro level study to examine the economics of productionandmarketingofmilkwiththespecificobjectivessuchas(1)to analysecostsandreturnsondairyfarms;(2)tostudyresourceuseefficiency andresourceproductivityondairyfarmsand(3)tostudythemarketing aspectsofmilk.
