Milk Marketing

India is the largestmilk producer in the world and dairy cooperatives are the backbone of Indian dairy industry. In Kerala, the Kerala Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation,popularly known as Milma,has played a significant role for the development of dairy business. But in the recent years even though the Federationcontinues to mark growth,the percentage of growth has beenfar below the growth of theprivate dairy sector. The study analysed the performance of KCMMF with respect to milk pourment and sale, and of the various welfare schemes of the Federation. The study revealed that the growth in the pourment of milk was not par with the growth of thesale of milk during the period of study. Only 14 percent of the total member farmers were pouringmilk to the dairy cooperatives. Huge amount spent by the Federation for implementing welfare schemes has notcreated a positive impact on the growth of milk pourment. The Federation has to adopt certain criteria to provide such welfare benefits to attract the lost member farmers, which will definitely help the Federation to achieve the very objectives of the welfare schemes.

Intertextuality appears to be of crucial significance to better comprehend texts (Ahmadian and Yazdani, 2013).This research addresses intertextuality as an important technique manifested in modern Arabic poetry trying to investigate its conception, identify a sample of these salient embedded texts, and analyze them and their positive impact on enriching the text and illuminating some related issues such as ideology and perception of the world of experience in the Jordanian modern poetry, with special attention devoted to the recent poetry of Ayman Al-Otoum. Models representing this phenomenon in his poetry has been collected and compared with much assertion on the importance of this technique in enriching both levels: the idea and rhyme. The outcomes would be of a great importance to raise people’s awareness of the extensive impact of culture, religion, society on language, the tissue of the interrelated texts, enrich understanding of the language and enhance the translation practice and the quality of the translation output.Keywords: Intertextuality, intertextual elements, allusion, Arabic Free Verse Poetry, Ayman Al-Otoum’s poetry

PurposeMember-owned business organizations, such as cooperatives, are engaged in various economic activities that touch our everyday lives. Sitajakhala Dugdha Utpadak Samabai Samiti Limited (Sitajakhala Dairy Producers Cooperative Society Limited) is a successful cooperative society in the northeastern region of India. The purpose of this case study is to illustrate how the cooperative manages its production and supply chain of milk and milk products and highlights several issues that the cooperative encountered in the recent past and how those issues were managed. This case also illustrates how an agribusiness cooperative has been growing over the years, including expansion of business and the creation of a brand image, as well as benefiting its members and their communities.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used a case study approach where they went for in-person interviews of Sitajakhala's executive members and office staff; in addition, the authors were given access to Sitajakhala's marketing and financial records as well as its annual reports and vision documents.FindingsSitajakhala Co-op provides a platform where individual dairy farmers (most of who are small farmers and many of them are illiterate) can unite to bargain for higher prices for their milk. Due to its member-oriented business strategy, Sitajakhala Co-op has been growing well with active support of its members. Consistent quality control and marked improvements in labeling, bottling and packaging of milk and milk products has helped the cooperative to establish itself as a leader in dairy products supplier in Assam among bulk buyers as well as individual consumers. Sitajakhala cooperative also provides dairy farming related services to its members for free of charge to improve milk production and quality. One of the shortcomings of the cooperative is underutilization of its modern milk processing plant which needs to be addressed by the management in earnest.Research limitations/implicationsThis case study is based on information from one dairy cooperative in Assam, India; thus, the findings of this case may not translate into other dairy cooperatives in India or elsewhere. Nonetheless, cooperative practitioners may find the findings useful from a management perspective.Social implicationsSitajakhala Co-op management was keenly aware of the non-dairy related needs of the community it serves. Some of such services include free medical ambulance service for its members, supporting secondary education through providing merit and need-based scholarships and funding physical improvements to a local high school and a local college. In addition, the cooperative regularly provides funding to local sports and cultural events and local social institutions which have positive impact on the larger community. Sitajakhala cooperative has been providing employment to the local youth in the Morigaon area and plans on continuing to do so.Originality/valueTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first case study focusing on the management and operations of a dairy cooperative in the northeastern part of India. Knowledge gained from such study is expected to benefit not only Sitajakhala cooperative but also other dairy cooperatives in a similar situation. This case study will also benefit senior undergraduate and/or graduate students specializing in agricultural economics/agribusiness and can also be used for executive training for the management of academic institutions and food companies.

Oil and its derivatives are very important goods in the world, not only because of their huge use but also because the consequences of that use. The literature has plenty of works with economic analysis of the use of oil. Having available a huge amount of data, we propose an innovative approach: based on daily information of sales in a gas station since 2001 to 2018, we make a seasonality analysis of those sales. In separate analysis, using information of the both existing shifts, of the week day and of the month, we conclude that seasonality in sales is significant. This is an important information for firm managers, which could use this information to better define their strategies.

This case study outlines the steps Oatly has taken so far to achieve its goal of becoming the largest ‘dairy and milk’ producer in the world. Oatly develops, produces and markets dairy and milk analogues, with an overriding ambition to promote structural changes in the dairy industry. Oatly’s approach relies on state-of-the-art technologies that can create dairy analogues and milk-like fluids. The resulting products are marketed under their own brand and promoted by provocative and innovative communication strategies that include storytelling, policy-related activities, social media campaigns and more traditional sales concepts. The company is constantly developing and opening factories that enable them to expand into foreign markets, whilst applying diverse marketing strategies. Following Oatly’s example, other retailers and food companies also expressed their interest in dairy and milk replacement products, increasing the market competition.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.
