Embedded System for Milk Analyzer and Billing Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION TO MILK COLLECTION SYSTEM 1.1 INTRODUCTION While we were in search of problems In the society, with keeping in mind that engineering is a technical solution of a any problem, we decide to look at common man‘s problem. At the same time in month of june11, Milk adulteration problem was on the top of media, so we thought why not explore this problem. The Dairy industry in India is generally co-operative .The primary milk provided to the dairy are farmers who do not process their milk and give it in the raw form to the co-operative dairy. Since more no. of farmers are depositing their milk in the dairy, it is a daily task of the dairy to assess the quality of …show more content…

The Micro-Processor-Based Milk Collection System Milko-testers reduce the time taken to ascertain the quality and the fat content of milk which in turn helps in overcoming all associated problems of the traditional method of testing such as storage of samples, and handling of corrosive chemicals. However, the calculation and payment of bills remained as cumbersome as ever since the bills were still 2 Embedded System for Milk Analyzer and Billing being calculated manually. The NDDB, in 1988, took up a project to develop an integrated milk collection system to effect immediate calculation and payment of bills to the farmer. For this REIL and M/s ATE Enterprises Ltd. developed prototypes that were tested in two villages in Kheda district, namely Mogri and Bedwa REIL-developed milk collection system: This system has been operational in Mogri for the past several years. It consists of three pieces of equipment, as shown in Figure 4.1, placed alongside each other: (a) the Electronic Milk Tester (EMT); (b) the Milk Weighing System (MWS); and (c) the Data Processor (DP). When the NDDB financed the project in the early 1990s for the micro-processor based automatic milk collection stations (AMCs) the cost was about $2,250 (approximately Rs 96,800), which included the micro-processor, weighing machine,
