Mumbai: Following in the footsteps of Amul Market leaders, both Gokul and Mrs.
Dairy also raised milk prices by Rs 2 per liter.
The increase came into force since Sunday, July 11.
Amul has collected milk prices of Rs 2 on July 1 quoting increased input costs such as energy, packaging and logistics.
On Saturday, Ms.
Dairy said that the cost of procuring milk from dairy farmers has risen 8-10 percent in the past year.
Other operational costs also increased, requiring retail increases, he said.
However, the Head of Gokul Major Majern Maharashtra Majern Majern, Satej Patil, who is also the Minister of State for home, links price increases to the increase in procurement costs.
The price of buffalo milk has now increased from Rs 58 to 60 and cow’s milk from Rs 47 to 49.
The press release issued by Gokul on Saturday said that it improved the fate of milk farmers.
“As convincing, immediately after being elected to the Kolhapur District Copulation Milk Union Council, which has Gokul, we have announced the increase in procurement prices of Rs 2 for buffalo milk and Re 1 for cow’s milk from July 11.
Farmers will benefit from increased levels, “He said.
“We collect 12 laks for milk every day from all states.
Except for the Kolhapur division, Sangli and Konkan there will be an increase in the selling price of milk,” the statement added.
Meanwhile, a steady increase in daily essential costs such as milk, gasoline, diesel, LPG and household consumption items continued to burden together households during the pandemic season.
