KFL Enters Customized Production Sends Gokulam Consignment to Guruvayur Cows

THRISSUR: Kerala Feeds Limited (KFL) today entered into customized production when the first consignment of the public-sector undertaking left for Guruvayur, catering to the specific requrements of three cow-sheds run by the administration of the famed Srikrishna temple.

KFL Chairman K. Sreekumar flagged off the northward journey with loads of Gokulam and Gokulam-Plus brands of the company at its headquarters in Kallettumkara near Irinjalakuda.

Guruvayur Devaswom, which administers the shrine, has its cow-sheds in three places: Guruvayur, nearby Kaveed (both Thrissur district) and Vengad close to Manjeri in neighbouring Malappuram district.

From now on, KFL will be the providers of the feed for the Devaswom’s cattle. The Gokulam brand has been prepared based on the specific requirements of the cows under the temple administration.

KFL Managing Director Dr B. Sreekumar, while explaining the details of the PSU’s customized products, said the company will cater to specific demands if the order comes for feeds weighing 50 tonnes or more. “We will be including the nutrients and fibre as suggested by the client, including farmers, to suit their requirements,” he added.

The 1995-founded KFL manufactures products for various breeds of cows with the aim of keeping them in good health as well as better productivity and quality of milk.
