Nyanza farmers to benefit as Brookside eyes region for raw milk

Dairy farmers in Nyanza are set for better returns from their farming activities after a giant milk industry player set out to capture the untapped source for raw milk.

Brookside Dairies Ltd has cast wider its raw milk collection to the region as it seeks to increase milk intake following expansion of its processing facilities which has seen its daily milk needs rise to over 1.5 million litres.
