Severe summer hits dairy production in Ernakulam region
The Hindu
Shortage partly being met with supplies from Malabar region
The onset of a severe summer and the subsequent shortage of green fodder have hit milk procurement by the regional union of cooperative milk producers even as there is a rise in the number of dairy enterprises in the region with several expatriate Malayalis returning in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. John Theruvath, Chairman of Ernakulam Regional Cooperative Milk Producers Union (ERCMPU), said that milk procurement had dipped to 3.35 lakh litres a day while the sale was around 3.60 lakh litres. The milk supply situation was balanced immediately after the winter season when procurement had exceeded daily sales. The shortage in milk procurement by the Milma union was partly being met with supplies from the Malabar region while a part of the shortage was being filled in by procurement from the neighbouring state of Karnataka, he added.
