About me / Bio:
Harichand Megha Dalaya was an Indian social entrepreneur who invented the first spray-dryer for buffalo milk in the world. His invention revolutionized India's dairy farming industry and laid the foundation for Amul cooperative's immense success. He was born in Karachi in 1921 and graduated from Pune Agriculture Engineering College in 1944. He obtained a master's degree in Dairy Technology from Michigan State University in 1948 and completed the Advanced Business Management Program from Harvard Business School in 1950. He returned to India after the partition and joined Amul as a friend of Verghese Kurien. He challenged the conventional wisdom that buffalo milk could not be spray-dried due to its high fat content and designed and installed the patented Spray Dry Equipment at Amul Dairy in 1955. He was awarded the Achievement in Dairy Industry Award by Indian Merchant's Chambers in 1980, the Fellowship Award by Indian Dairy Association in 1989, and the Dr. Kurien Award by Indian Dairy Association in 1991. He died in Pune in 2004 at the age of 82.
