Why it matters
The initiatives aim to expand the cooperative dairy network and promote value addition within the state. The launch of new Dairy Cooperative Societies and Fodder Plus Farmer Producer Organisations could increase the supply base and formalize the dairy sector's market structure. Furthermore, the unveiling of new products, such as organic honey and millet-based sweets, supports product diversification.
