Milk producers in Tamil Nadu can now afford to chill, with two new milk chilling plants on the way
Earlier this week, the Minister of Livestock and Dairy Development, Mr. Mano Thangaraj, and the Secretary of Dairy Development, Mr. Siva V. Meyyanathan, inaugurated the construction of a new milk chilling plant in the Karambakudi panchayat union. This new plant is just one of many initiatives aimed at boosting milk production in the state.
Mr. Thangaraj and Mr. Meyyanathan jointly unveiled the foundation for the construction of the plant, which is expected to cost 24 lakh. The plant will be located at the Kottaikaadu panchayat and will provide local milk producers with access to a chilling facility, enabling them to preserve their produce efficiently.
This new initiative is part of a larger effort to encourage dairy farming and increase milk production in Tamil Nadu. The state government has been actively promoting dairy farming as a sustainable and profitable livelihood option, and these new milk chilling plants will be key in helping producers preserve their goods and maintain quality.
It is a well-known fact that proper refrigeration is crucial for maintaining the quality and safety of milk. By investing in milk chilling plants, the state government is not only supporting local dairy farmers but also ensuring that the citizens of Tamil Nadu have access to fresh, high-quality milk and milk products.
This move reflects the government's commitment to supporting local agriculture and fostering sustainable economic development in the state. By providing infrastructure and opportunities to local dairy farmers, the government is helping to drive economic growth and improve the livelihoods of many in the region.
