The State Government would provide 51 acres of land and Rs 244.74 crore for the project. The proposed automated dairy would have a spray drying milk powder plant of 10-MTPD capacity with manufacturing facility for 40 TlPD curd, 10 TlPD buttermilk, 10 TlPD lassi, 3.5 TlPD flavoured milk, 3 MTPD Paneer and UHT milk in tetra brick of 1 litre pack in capacity of 60 TlPD.

Rath said the new plant would serve the twin objectives of making available fresh and pure milk and milk products to consumers at affordable prices and providing remunerative prices for farmers’ produce.
