Mysuru: The Mysuru District Milk Producers Co-operative Societies’ Employees Welfare Association has come into existence.

MyMUL (Mysuru Milk Union Limited)  President R. Cheluvaraju inaugurated the Association at a programme held at a Kalyana Mantap near Bannur Road junction on Alanahalli Ring Road here on Sunday.

Speaking on the occasion, Cheluvaraju said that milk production in the district has hit a new high and measures have been taken to manufacture more milk products.

Pointing out that the popular  Nandini brand milk and other products of KMF is being sold in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and other States, he said that efforts are being made to make ‘Nandini’ a global brand, for which all Milk Producer Unions have joined hands.

Noting that the Milk Producers Co-operative Societies are also helping the staff and farmers, Cheluvaraju said that dairying has come to the rescue of farmers who are devastated by crop loss due to drought or floods.
