A depleted podcast team this week as we are missing both Ben and Chris, but there is no shortage of fantastic discussion as Will is joined by Prashant Tripathi, Director of Market Development at Solera Advisors in Germany and John Allen, Kite Director for an update and discussion on dairy in India. Prashant talks about lumpy cow disease which is currently affecting cattle in India and discusses the impact on farmers, local communities and domestic milk volumes up to National level. Prashant and John go on to discuss the nutritional and political importance of dairy in India, and the challenge of keeping dairy products affordable for poorer communities and to keep rural communities thriving. They discuss consumption and production shifts, import opportunities and a more recent focus on carbon emission reduction. John touches on the significance of the Muller milk price hold this week.
