The Tamil Nadu Cooperative Milk Producers Federation whose brand was Aavin had procured an all time high of 31.84 lakh litres on Tuesday August 22, 2017 while its total capacity of processing stood at 32 lakh litres of milk per day in its 22 big and small dairies to which over 4.40 lakh farmers brought milk daily. A massive operation indeed!
Milk production is a sure and strong source of income to the producers/ farmers everywhere. There was a time when Aavin refused to procure the excess milk quoting inadequate processing facility with the result the producers protested in many parts of Tamil Nadu by throwing the milk on the main roads. I was cursing the system for want of intelligence and hard work on the part of concerned authorities.
Luckily the MD of Aavin C .Kamaraj declares that the capacity now exists to convert the excess quantity of milk beyond the consumption limit into skimmed milk powder and butter.
Milk producers should not be discouraged for want of marketing at any cost.
