Will Aavin set up a butter production center in Palani? Expectations for funding from the new government
There is a growing demand for the new government to allocate funds to renovate the shuttered Aavin cooling center in Palani and establish a butter production facility.
Aavin sells 40,000 liters of milk daily in the Dindigul district. The milk cooling center in Palani has been non-functional since 2022 due to mechanical failure, leaving storage equipment unused and deteriorating.
Aavin had previously proposed a butter production center in Palani to increase profitability and meet local demand. Despite receiving initial approval, the project was stalled due to a lack of funding under the previous administration. Stakeholders and farmers are now urging the new government to allocate the necessary funds to revive the project.
