Food for thoughtIn milk, Amul, which began its journey as a small co-operative union in 1946, looks unshakeable with its heritage, history and marketing muscle. About 40 lakh litres of milk comes from other States, adding to the 210-230 lakh litres procured within Gujarat. From the initial 250 litres of milk, Amul now collects about 280 lakh litres per day during peak season. In the past decade, Amul has added over 6.5 lakh milk producer members in Gujarat and 7 lakh from outside taking the total membership base to over 40 lakh milk producers. It now has the installed processing capacity of 390 lakh litres per day.
