Building a "paradise" for dairy cows
Taking advantage of its geographical location with 600 hectares of grassland, 800m above sea level, cool, fresh air, and pure water from the source, NutiMilk Dairy Farm has researched to increase the herd and currently has nearly 12,000 cows and calves. On average, each adult cow gives about 38 liters of milk with a quality of 3.5 grams of protein/100ml, equivalent to imported milk from Australia and New Zealand.
Not only applying high technology from Israel, NutiMilk Gia Lai Dairy Farm also imports breeding cows from the US, takes care of cows with each meal, and regularly checks the health of each cow to ensure top quality milk.
In this Global GAP-certified farm, workers spread feed three times a day for the cows. The farm’s barns are also “five-star standard” because they are equipped with a 24/7 ventilation system that helps circulate air and reduce flies. The cow pads are also specially designed to reduce the weight on the legs, protecting the hooves well.
The cows here also enjoy special medical care. Each cow has a chip attached to its ear to monitor its health and the quality of the milk it milks every day. The hospital area for cows can accommodate 150 cows but has never been fully utilized because the cows are always healthy, with the rate of mastitis accounting for less than 3% of the total herd.
Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Mr. Phung Duc Tien, during a visit to NutiMilk Dairy Farm exclaimed: “The most important thing to be successful is to love the industry, love the job. The farm's human resources have a fire of love, are passionate about cows, think about cows when eating, think about cows when sleeping”.
Pride of Vietnamese fresh milk
Looking back 15 years ago, Vietnamese farmers had to travel to neighboring Thailand to buy breeding cows and learn how to raise them, but now “the wind has changed direction”. Many experts and farmers from Thailand have come to Nutifood’s NutiMilk Gia Lai Dairy Farm to learn and buy breeding cows in return.
Even Vietnam's number 1 ice cream company Kido, the owner of two famous brands Celeno and Merino, has chosen fresh milk from NutiMilk Dairy Farm for production.
Currently, NutiMilk Dairy Farm is providing consumers with three product lines: Fresh milk without sugar; Fresh milk with less sugar; Fresh milk with sugar. All products use only fresh milk from NutiMilk with a protein content of 3.5 grams/100ml, equivalent to international standards. In addition, fresh milk from NutiMilk Dairy Farm is also used to produce NutiMilk yogurt, fresh milk with brown sugar and NuVi jelly, Varna Life formula fresh milk, ... and many other products of Nutifood.
In addition, the development of NutiMilk Dairy Farm has also helped boost the local economy, breathing new life into the livestock sector in MangYang in particular, Gia Lai in general and neighboring provinces. The fact that NutiMilk Dairy Farm imports corn and grass from farmers in Dak Lak, Phu Yen, Gia Lai has helped create jobs and stable income for thousands of households.
For the health of the community, Nutifood's scientific research team is still working day and night to create new products from fresh milk from NutiMilk Gia Lai Dairy Farm to supplement and provide nutrition for everyone, every family.
