India is still the world’s largest milk producing country and AgriGold is endeavouring to ensure that it remains so for the many more years to come. The company is known to process milk and milk products using the most advanced technology and machinery. The professionals at AgriGold India dairy farms imitate the technology used by DeLaval, a world famous Swedish company, for processing of milk.



AgriGold’s dairy sector is reputedly known as Amruthavarshini and its wide network of staff collects milk from farmers of the surrounding villages and then stores the milk at the regional chilling-cum-storage units. The milk is then finally transported in the company’s own tanks to the main processing plants at Keesara, Krishna, Kaanipakam, and Chittoor districts. Soon two more dairy plants are coming up at West Godavari and Visakha districts of Andhra Pradesh.
