There is good news for readers who have been making queries to Indian Cooperative after a small piece on Amul producing camel milk appeared in the past. Because of its medicinal properties camel milk has been in great demand.
GCMMF will soon begin selling ‘camel’ milk as the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has given its nod for marketing it, reports Business Standard.
The cooperative’s Kutch based Sarhad Dairy is setting up the camel milk processing plant which is likely to be operational by 2017.
A source says it will be India’s first camel milk processing unit.
GCMMFMD R S Sodhi said “We were waiting for an approval from the FSSAI which has finally come. We need to work on some specifications before launching the camel milk by March-April 2017”.
