From Paneer to Parmesan: Punjab's Dairy Revolution

From Paneer to Parmesan: Punjab’s Dairy Revolution

Punjab’s dairy farmers, traditionally reliant on paneer production, are charting a new course, embracing the burgeoning market for premium cheeses. This diversification is fueled by both global trends and a significant rise in domestic demand for gourmet dairy products.

The Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (GADVASU) is playing a pivotal role in this transformation. The university is providing crucial support through comprehensive training programs, assisting in new product development, and facilitating access to wider markets.

GADVASU’s initiatives are equipping farmers with the skills and resources needed to cater to the evolving preferences of discerning consumers. This strategic shift promises to significantly enhance the income potential of dairy farmers in the state.

This move towards premium cheese production not only promises higher profits for Punjab’s farmers but also strengthens India’s position in the global dairy market. The success of this initiative will be a significant step towards enhancing rural livelihoods and boosting the national economy.
