Indore Dugdh Vikreta Sangh president Bharat Mathurawala said, “Unlike previous summers, this season, milk collection has not dropped so far and has remained almost stagnant at 12-12.5 lakh litre. This has happened because farmers are getting good remuneration from milk sales and this has helped many farmers buy new cattle.”

According to the association, which delivers milk to customers’ doorsteps twice a day, daily milk sales in the city are around 12.5 lakh litre. The association increased the price of milk by Rs 2 per litre due to the higher cost of cattle fodder from March 1, 2025.
