Food, Agriculture & Agro Processing ERP

Dairy Industry ERP Software

Manage milk collection, fat and SNF testing, farmer payments, chilling, pasteurization, product manufacturing, cold chain and distribution for dairies.

Industry challenges

Common Dairy Industry Challenges

  • Farmer payments based on fat and SNF are calculated manually
  • Milk losses between collection and processing are not tracked
  • Product yields from milk are unknown
  • Cold-chain distribution to retailers is hard to control
How our ERP helps

One System for the Whole Operation

Dairy ERP connects collection centers, the chilling plant, processing and distribution: analyzer readings drive farmer payments, every product batch records its milk input and yield, and the cold chain is tracked to the retailer.

Key features

  • Fat / SNF-based rate charts and farmer billing
  • Analyzer-integrated collection centers
  • Milk balancing from collection to products
  • Product-wise yield and costing
  • Route-wise cold-chain distribution
