Collect. Test. Price. Pay every farmer.

Six parts of MilkShell a dairy uses every shift, and how each one works.

Milk collection

Every pouring recorded at the counter

Each farmer’s milk is weighed, tested and recorded on a slip as it arrives, with the amount worked out on the spot.

  • Digital weighing with automatic recording
  • Cow and buffalo milk, shift by shift
  • Farmer identification and milk history
  • Keeps working offline at the centre

Quality testing

Quality checked before it is accepted

FAT, SNF and adulteration tests are recorded against the slip, so every litre is priced on its real quality.

  • FAT, protein and SNF readings
  • Adulteration checks for water, urea and salts
  • Rejected milk tracked and the farmer notified
  • Calibration logs for analyzers and scales
