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