Milk is good for the bones because it offers a rich source of calcium, a mineral essential for healthy bones and teeth. It reduces blood pressure which also benefits bone health.

The study is based on descriptive research design. Primary data collection tools i.e. observation, questionnaire method and direct interview method is used. The study concludes that the milk supplier of the village are facing the problem of supply fluctuation due to the improper management of milk production by the villagers and selling situation of fresh milk. The trading place for trading milk is not appropriate. Despite large number of cows and buffalo populations, the proportion of milking animals has remained low.
