3. Indian Dairy Industry
1. Need for up-gradation in operations and functioning has led to high
level of dairy automation.
2. This advance has given rise to lots of operation data which can be
used for effective monitoring
3. Currently, monitoring is done only for basic parameters and limited
to site control room

omni-present as well. Such transparency can lead to more effective
functioning
