The Bombay Milk Producers' Association has raised the wholesale price of buffalo milk by a record Rs 9, from Rs 93 to Rs 102 per litre, reported TOI. The revised rates will come into effect from September 1 and will be reviewed on February 28, 2027.Retail milk prices are expected to rise correspondingly.Association president CK Singh said, "The increase was necessitated by the spiralling cost of animal feed, fodder and sundry items required for milk production. From milch animals to grain, tuvar and chana feed to corn, we are witnessing a hike of upto 25%. Grass and fodder is also far costlier. It is not viable to continue to sell milk at the old rate."Members of the dairy association unanimously approved the increase, which is the largest hike in the wholesale buffalo milk price in recent history.
