Ensuring real-time quality control
Milk procurement in India’s dairy industry is complicated, uncontrolled, and vulnerable to tampering. The safety and quality of milk products are difficult to manage. To ensure real-time control across the dairy industry supply chain — from farmers to collection centers to processing plants, this project will develop a handheld device that can inexpensively test the quality of milk by measuring milk fat and protein.
