New Indian Express reports dairy farmers of Raisunguda Milk Producers’ Cooperative Society in Cuttack district threw a huge amount of milk on the road protesting non-procurement of their milk by Odisha State Cooperative Milk Producers Federation (OMFED).
More than 50,000 dairy farmers of the district registered with OMFED are facing financial difficulties because the latter is not collecting milk from the farmers due to lockdown.
The milk farmers are also angry because the state govt. has not carried out its promise to help them with procurement.
