State-owned corporation says Rs1.48 billion paid in first half as improved sales and lower output ease two-year cash crunch for farmers.

Dairy farmers who had endured months-long payment delays over the past two years are finally getting relief, as the state-owned Dairy Development Corporation (DDC) says it has cleared dues up to mid-January, while private processors report that they have no outstanding payments left.
