When it comes to ghee, the options on the market can be confusing. On one hand, you see mass-produced ghee stocked in supermarkets, often made at industrial scale. On the other, there’s A2 cultured (bilona) ghee—like The Farm Company’s A2 Bilona Ghee, prepared in small batches using traditional methods in Rajasthan. But what’s the real difference? And more importantly—which one should you choose for your family’s health?
What is Mass-Produced Ghee?
Most supermarket ghee is factory-made, cream-based ghee.
Industrial process – cream → butter → ghee, made in bulk.
Source – often from high-yield HF or Jersey cows, not native breeds.- Nutrients – can lose vitamins and healthy compounds due to high-heat processing.
- Quality – may contain preservatives, color, or adulterants.
- Taste – often flat or neutral, lacking the nutty aroma of traditional ghee.

What is A2 Cultured (Bilona) Ghee?
This is the ancient Indian method of ghee-making, where curd (dahi) is churned into butter and then slow-simmered into ghee.

- Low cholesterol, easy to digest, gentle on the stomach.
- No added sugar or preservatives – just pure golden ghee.
