Small Scale Value Added Milk Products Processing: An Entrepreneurial Guide

Milk and milk products is an important element in a healthy and balanced diet for all age categories of the population. Value added milk products processing double the margins in the liquid milk segment. Better returns for the dairy farmers will further encourage dairy farming and also consumers will get better quality products for their money. Value added milk products processing either lies with the large-scale dairy plants (with huge investment) or with the small scale halwais (with not having the uniform quality). To meet the stringent quality standards uniformity of dairy products at small scale (with less investment) level scientific research-based work is very much important. Therefore, this work has been planned on standardization of different value-added milk products processing with the standardized product recipe, procedure, flow chart and economics work out which are most suitable for small scale production and entrepreneurship development.
