Digitising milk collection centres to ensure faster payments for women farmers
Milk Aggregation Platform (MAP)
MAP is a mobile and desktop-based application built to digitise the operations of milk collection centres. It records milk quantity and quality poured by farmers and ensures that payments are transferred directly into their bank accounts. AAVIN, the Tamil Nadu Cooperative Milk Producers’ Federation, in partnership with the National Agro Foundation, is using MAP to streamline dairy procurement and empower women farmers through transparent and timely payments.
