PARTNERING WITH THE MILK POWDER INDUSTRY FOR HEALTHY RETURNS

PARTNERING WITH THE MILK POWDER INDUSTRY FOR HEALTHY RETURNS

India is the leading milk producer in the world, currently badly hit by the Covid-19 crisis.

Demand for liquid milk has dropped drastically due to the closure of restaurants, sweetmeat shops and the unorganised sector. In fact, CII has recommended that the government should rationalise GST on value-added products like ghee & butter, and create a strategic reserve for milk powder that can be distributed through the public distribution system to help poorer sections in nutrition intake.

However, milk powder production in India is booming. Besides growing consumption at home, exports of milk powder have surged too – at rates that are significantly higher than world average growth.

And why not? It’s an effective way to consume the taste and nutritional goodness of milk without worrying about storage and spoilage. Milk powder is a dry dairy product, made by dehydrating milk to increase shelf life without refrigeration. There are various types of milk powder: whole milk powder, skimmed milk powder, dairy whitener, buttermilk powder, etc. which are widely consumed in infant formulas, baked desserts, confectionaries, savoury foods, nutritional supplements and many other products.
