Whether it&rsquo;s milk draining away during CIP, rejects from the filling machine, or off-spec batches that can&rsquo;t be sold, every litre lost directly hits the bottom line.</p> <p>In most dairy plants, production loss runs at <strong>2–5% of total milk intake</strong>. At a plant processing 50,000 litres per day, that&rsquo;s 1,000–2,500 litres lost daily. At ₹40/litre, that&rsquo;s ₹40,000–₹1 lakh <em>every single day</em>.</p>
