Unemployment or situations like
drought are not all about frustration. It does show a way, if you have a will.
SSM organized a Study Tour to Gujarat with 20 rural young farmers from Village
Sagroli and surrounding area. They visited various Co-operative Milk Societies,
small and large scale dairy farms, interacted with the farmers, learnt much
about dairy industry and returned with a determination.
In
less than a month, the “KESHAV” MILK CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY’ Sagroli was
inaugurated on the auspicious Vijay Dashami (The Dasara) day i.e, on 11th
October 2016.
The dairy farmers has come together
and formed a committee of 17 members to run the society. The Milk Society,
which started functioning at a small scale, is likely to be expanded, as and
how, the milk input increases. A milk
collection centre working at present buys and sells the raw milk brought by the
local farmers, in the morning and evening, every day. As the farmers are the
owner of the society, the profit will also be shared among themselves as a
shareholder. The producers and consumers have expressed gratification as their
need has been fulfilled.
