By the end of 1985, a self-sustaining system of 43000 village co-operatives with 4,250,000 milk producers was covered. Domestic milk powder production increased from 22,000 metric tonnes in the pre-project year to 140,000 tonnes by 1989, with all of this increase coming from dairies set up under Operation Flood. In this way, EEC gifts and a <a href="/wiki/World_Bank" title="World Bank">World Bank</a> loan helped promote self-reliance.

Veterinary first-aid health care services, feed, and artificial insemination services for co-operative members were extended, along with intensified member education. Operation Flood's Phase III consolidated India's dairy co-operative movement, adding 30,000 new dairy co-operatives to the 43,000 existing co-operatives organised during Phase II. The number of milk sheds peaked at 173 in 1988–89, with the numbers of female members and female dairy cooperative societies increasing significantly. Phase III also increased emphasis on research and development in animal health and nutrition. Innovations such as a vaccine for <a href="/wiki/Tropical_theileriosis" title="Tropical theileriosis">Theileriosis</a>, bypassing protein feed and urea-molasses mineral blocks, contributed to the enhanced productivity of milk-producing animals.<sup id="cite_ref-NDDB_9-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NDDB-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span
