Gujarat women power dairy sector growth
In 2012, Mittal Patel of Borsad taluka’s Kavitha village ventured into dairy business with just one cow. She along with her husband and brother-in-law increased cattle holding by taking loans. Now, this 38-year-old is a proud owner of Sargam dairy farm, having nearly 200 cows including 75 calves. The farm alone supplies around 1,700 litres milk directly to Amul Dairy on a daily basis.
