Abstract: The Indian dairy sector, as the world's largest milk producer, is a cornerstone of rural livelihoods and national food security. This study presents a detailed analysis of manufacturing costs and handling losses in a composite dairy plant, with a specific focus on the economic and operational dimensions of milk processing. Conducted the research, integrating quantitative data, such as cost of raw materials, utilities, labour, packaging, and equipment depreciation, with qualitative insights from on-site observations and stakeholder interviews. The study quantifies the utilisation and loss patterns of milk solids, Fat, solids-not-fat (SNF), and total solids across multiple product lines, including fluid milk, ghee, butter, paneer, and skimmed milk powder (SMP). Seasonal variations between flush and lean periods are examined to assess their impact on cost efficiency and product yields. A comprehensive cost allocation framework distinguishes between fixed and variable costs, facilitating accurate estimation of per-unit production expenses. Findings reveal that raw material procurement dominates the cost structure, while losses during processing significantly affect profitability and operational sustainability. The research underscores the need for enhanced process optimisation, loss minimisation strategies, and the adoption of advanced technologies to improve economic viability. The outcomes of this study hold significant implications for dairy plant managers, policy planners, and industry stakeholders aiming to enhance productivity, reduce waste, and promote sustainable practices in the dairy sector.
Keywords: Dairy industry, manufacturing cost analysis, milk solids handling loss, composite dairy plant, milk utilisation pattern, process optimisation, cost efficiency, seasonal variation, skimmed milk powder (SMP), Indian dairy sector.
