Dairy Cooperatives
Dairy cooperatives are organizations owned and operated by local farmers who produce milk. These cooperatives help members by pooling their resources to process, package, and sell their milk more efficiently and at better prices than they could individually. They often provide services like technical support, veterinary care, and access to markets. The goal is to improve the income and livelihoods of dairy farmers while ensuring quality and fair prices for consumers. Essentially, dairy cooperatives are collective efforts that benefit small-scale farmers through shared infrastructure and collective bargaining power.
