India (ASSOCHAM).
In terms of milk production, Gujarat is ranked fifth
with about eight per cent
share across India in total milk
production of over 120 million
tonne. Besides, Gujarat has
recorded fifth highest growth
rate of about 24 per cent in
milk production which is
above the all-India growth
rate of about 19 per cent.
While Andhra Pradesh
(AP) has recorded highest
growth in terms of both milk
production and per-capita milk
availability, the state ranked third in terms of milk
production with over 1.1 million tons produced annually.
Apart from AP, the states of Rajasthan (28 per cent),
Kerala (24.8 per cent), Karnataka (24 per cent) and
Gujarat (23.7 per cent) are among the top five states in
terms of achieving high growth in milk production.

Dr. P.K. Naik awarded
for work on Hydroponics Fodder
Dr. Prafulla Kumar Naik, Senior Scientist (Animal
Nutrition) of ICAR Research Complex for Goa, Goa has
been awarded the ‘Best Poster Award (First Place)’ for
presenting the research paper ‘Low Cost Devices for
Hydroponics Fodder Production: Case Studies of
Farmers of Satara District, Maharashtra’ authored by
‘P.K. Naik, S.P. Gaikwad, M.J. Gupta, G.M. Dhumal,

Global Animal Nutrition Conference (GLANCE-2014) on
'Climate Resilient Livestock Feeding Systems for Global
Food Security' held during 20-22 April, 2014 at Bengaluru.
Earlier, it was perceived that hydroponics fodder
could only be grown in hi-tech greenhouses, which prove
very costly. The ICAR Research Complex for Goa, Old
Goa and Govind Milk and Milk Products Pvt. Ltd., Satara,
Maharastra facilitated the farmers of the Satara district of
Maharashtra for production of hydroponics fodder by low

cost devices (greenhouses), fabricated from bamboo or
wood; MS or GI pipes; brick masonry etc. with irrigation
through micro-sprinklers (manual or automatic) or
knapsack sprayer at frequent intervals.
Dr. P.K. Naik concluded that hydroponics fodder
can be grown in different types of low cost devices
(greenhouses) with locally available or home-grown grains
and is an effective solution for fodder scarcity and
sustainable livestock production.

Mother Dairy — In sync
with the youth
Mother Dairy, a brand
with a turnover of
over ` 6,000 crore has
now gone for a
makeover with its
latest campaign that
not only gives it a new
corporate identity —
‘good food, good
people’ — but also
repositions it with a
tagline — ‘Taste That
Lifts You.’ The move
clearly is to woo youth
and get out of the imagery of child-mother association — something that it has
long been known for. The campaign shows young adults consuming Mother
Dairy products, and how the taste lifts their mood and makes them happy. The
makeover seeks to build and reinforce Mother Dairy’s corporate brand by
bringing all its products under one umbrella and provide a youth appeal. The
new corporate identity of Happy food, Happy people is definitely expected to
consolidate Mother Dairy brand in the consumer’s mind.
Homegrown test for
food contamination
INDIA’S HEALTH MINISTRY
has launched a kit that
will determine the
cause of food poisoning
outbreak faster and
more cost-effectively
than established foreign
imports, it claims. The
technology, in the form
of three separate tests,
was developed by the
Hyderabad-based National Institute of Nutrition and can also diagnose iron
deficiency anaemia and vitamin A deficiency. The testers would be used to
find the cause of food poisoning outbreaks and common food-borne infections
caused by contaminated produce and water.
Studies show that about 13% of all Indian children who die under the age
of five do so due to diarrhea. The kits, which were developed by NIN in
collaboration with Bioserve Biotechnologies, are made locally, are less time
consuming, and cost just one-third of the price of imported kits. By using the

Technology, Innovation
Drive Dairy Ventures
N EARLY HALF - A DOZEN startups have
entered the Indian
dairy sector as
improved technology
and demand for
innovation in the
supply chain makes
the sector attractive
for new ventures.
These companies,
many of which are
being set up by
software professionals who are switching careers, are offering better and a
wider range of dairy products and creating more efficient supply chains in
areas like Orissa, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and even NCR.
Santhosh Singh, who runs Amrutha Dairy Farms in Dodaballapur near
Bangalore says, “I had invested in land and my brother decided to start this
dairy farm as I felt the potential for this sector was big.” The 36-year-old
worked with technology companies Dell and American Online before he quit
to start his new venture. He acquired the necessary training by way of a
course at the National Dairy Research Institute. His farm produces around
300 litres of milk daily. With an investment of ` 80 lakh so far, the next step
for the four-year old venture is a partnership with a Netherlands-based
company to start production of exotic cheese.
Kuldeep Sharma, principal mentor at Suruchi Consultants, a dairy
consulting organization says, “Amul and Mother Dairy are among the largest
players and they have done the work of creating awareness regarding a host
of dairy products from lassies to milkshakes, and this has eased the way for
new start-ups to enter the segment.” Companies like Milk Mantra in Orissa,
Neo Milk Products in Gurgaon and Milk Route in Bangalore are amongst
those active in the sector.
Aavishkaar Managing Director Vineet Rai said, “We are investing in
start-ups which are entering markets such as Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and
eastern India, where milk demand is high and organised supply chains are
lacking.” Since the sector deals with perishable products, start-ups typically
set up locally focused businesses.

INDIA'S FAVORITE CHOCOLATE, Cadbury Dairy Milk, has introduced an all-new
modern and playful packaging for its milk chocolate as well as for Cadbury
Fruit and Nut, Crackle and Roast Almond. This shift to the new design is being
implemented across
the globe. The new

packaging design has
been developed by
the global Cadbury
Dairy Milk team.
According to

Mukherjee, Director,
Chocolate Category
& Media, Cadbury India Ltd, “Our consumer research shows that inclusions
like nuts and crispies are preference drivers in this category, thus making sense
for us to enhance our recipes in line with consumer needs.” Brighter colours
have been introduced to improve on-shelf presence. The new look is more
modern and joyful, while proudly keeping the identity of Cadbury Dairy Milk
that has been a part of the brand's heritage since 1905.
Additionally, the change in the mould means new variants will have curved
or rounded edges, instead of the current square cubes, to improve the way the
chocolate melts in the mouth, thus enhancing the overall chocolate experience.

China Further Restricts
Foreign Dairy Brands
THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT has imposed new limits on foreign brands
of milk powder and infant formula sold in China, according to
reports by the state-run news media. The restrictions appear to
be the latest attempt by the government to reduce the enormous
demand for foreign-made dairy products and bolster the sales of
domestic brands. The new restrictions require foreign makers of
milk powder to register the products, as well as their manufacturing
and storage centers, with the government before the products
can be sold in China. Earlier, the government had also stipulated foreign makers of milk powder to put Chineselanguage labels on products intended for sale in China before the products were shipped to the country.
When cows milk themselves….
EXPENSIVE LABOUR AND soaring prices have thrown up an
interesting alternative in some US dairy farms, especially
in upstate New York. The cows are milking themselves!
This is being done with the help of robotic milkers, which
feed and milk cows without the help of a single farmhand.
Scores of these machines have popped up across
New York’s dairy belt and in other states in recent years,
reinvigorating the allure of farming for a younger, techsavvy generation.
Tom Borden, owner of O. A. Borden, said machines
like the Astronaut A4 robotic milking system gave him more time to care for the cattle. The cows seem to like it,
too. Robots allow the cows to set their own hours, lining up for automated milking five or six times a day .With
transponders around their necks, the cows get individualized service. Lasers scan and map their underbellies, and a
computer charts each animal’s “milking speed,” a critical factor in a 24-hour-a-day operation.
The robots also monitor the amount and quality of milk produced, the frequency of visits to the machine, how
much each cow has eaten, and even the number of steps each cow has taken per day, which can indicate when she
is in heat.
Infant formula cube by Meiji

MEIJI HOHOEMI R AKU RAKU CUBE, launched in Japan, is infant formula in preportioned fast dissolving cubes. The product eliminates the need to measure out

product is only available in Japan. Meiji’s Hohoemi Raku Raku Cube is manufactured
through a process of moulding, humidifying, drying and compressing without any
additional additives. This method “means the outside is a little harder than the
inside and it rapidly dissolves,” said Walton. The concept is protected by an

When a glass of
milk doesn’t agree
with you
NO ONE CAN DISCOUNT the benefits of drinking
milk but there are some who happen to be
lactose intolerant. For such people consuming
milk or milk products results in diarrhea, gas, and cramps. However, some dairy foods such as custard, cottage
cheese, and yogurt have less lactose than milk which may be safely consumed even if one is lactose intolerant.
One can use dairy products that have cultures in them, such as yogurt, buttermilk, and some cheeses. They
have less lactose, and the cultures help the body digest the little bit that's there. Adopting a low-lactose diet is helpful
and so is the consumption of probiotic yogurt (beneficial bacteria that can help your body digest lactose).
The sweet truth about bitter chocolate
SCIENTISTS AT LOUISIANA STATE U NIVERSITY believe that
chocolate provides a range of health benefits such as
lower blood pressure. Bacteria in the stomach
“consume” the chocolate and ferment it into protective
anti-inflammatory compounds. When these compounds
are absorbed by the body, they lessen the inflammation
of cardiovascular tissue, reducing the long-term risk of
stroke. Anyone who wants to benefit from the
protective compounds will find that a bitter dark
chocolate is more likely to help than a low cocoa
content.
The study could help in formulation of pills or
supplements to stave off heart disease and mental
decline. A previous study found that two cups of hot chocolate a day boosted blood flow to the brain, which could
protect against dementia.
Gastro health, immunity with probiotic
Chr Hansen, the Danish probiotic company has said in a review that its dairy-derived probiotic strain Bifidobacterium

health and immune function.
The review, published in the journal Microorganisms said “Clinical research has shown that probiotics play a
role within various health areas, of which the two main research areas are gastrointestinal health and immune
function.” The review included research in the improvement of bowel function, protection against diarrhea and
antibiotic side effects.
