ASTANA, Kazakhstan, January 30. A project kicked off in the North Kazakhstan region by "Atameken-Agro-Korneevka" LLP, in collaboration with “Westfalia Kazakhstan,” marks a significant milestone in the advancement of dairy production in the region, Trend reports.
The yearly output of the dairy farm, housing 2,500 cattle,
stands at 7,500 tons of milk, which will greatly boost production
levels and satisfy the rising appetite for dairy goods. The price
tag for the project came in at 11.7 billion tenge ($22.23
million).
Westfalia Kazakhstan has outfitted the farm with cutting-edge
technology, featuring the state-of-the-art T8900 milking carousel
that boosts productivity, innovative stall equipment aimed at
enhancing animal comfort, and a climate control system that
establishes ideal conditions for cow care.
Additionally, the launch of this farm will not only strengthen the
position of "Atameken-Agro-Korneevka" LLP in the market but also
contribute to the development of the agro-industrial complex in the
North Kazakhstan region.
Kazakhstan has established itself as a significant participant in the Central Asian dairy market by means of smart investments in technology and infrastructure. These initiatives have resulted in significant increases in milk production and global trade. Kazakhstan's dairy industry is fundamentally supported by its substantial livestock farming, which comprises around 1.9 million dairy cattle. This animal base yields an annual milk production of around 5.4 million metric tons. This production highlights the sector's vital importance to the national economy. Due to excellent processing methods and cutting-edge facilities, Kazakhstan processes around 4.1 million metric tons of milk annually.
