The study conducted at Odisha State Co-operative Milk Producers Federation Ltd. (OMFED) dairy plant of Balasore district, handling capacity 50,000 LPD for the financial year March 2013-April 2014, revealed that among different products manufactured, Sweet Dahi turned out to be the most profitable product (40.55%) followed by Sweetened Flavoured Milk (28.7%) and Toned Milk (24.76%) whereas Paneer manufacturing turned out to be the lowest profitable (5.71%) proposition. There is a need to explore the possibility to increase the profits in Paneer manufacturing by increasing the price of the product or to adopt some suitable steps to use the residual whey for by-products such as whey based beverages, whey powder and in the pharmaceutical industry to bring down the cost. The share of packaging cost of Sweet Dahi was observed higher (28%) followed by Sweetened Flavoured Milk (22%) and Rabidi (13%). The packaging cost of these products seems higher so the management of the plant may look into and search for alternative technologies. Among different products manufactured, Paneer manufacturing turned out to be the lowest profitable. The share of packaging cost of Sweet Dahi was observed higher followed by Sweetened Flavoured Milk and Rabidi. Toned milk contributes about 90 per cent of the total revenue.
