Abbott's Project Ksheersagar Boosts Indian Dairy Farmers
Abbott, a healthcare company, started Project Ksheersagar in India with TechnoServe to help dairy farmers.
The project teaches farmers about dairy farm management and helps them open bank accounts.
It has set up milk collection centers for storage.
This helps farmers earn more, improve milk quality and increase their incomes, while also providing Abbott with high-quality milk for its products.
The project has reduced veterinary costs and increased milk production.
Abbott and TechnoServe launched Project Ksheersagar in 2022.
The project operates in Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu.
Over 12,000 farmers are engaged in the initiative.
