Seminar in Siberia

Development options for beef cattle husbandry and dairy cattle technologies under extreme weather conditions.

Time: June 16–19, 2011
Place: Tyumen, West Siberian Region, Russia

Participants:

• Alexei Kitain
• Mihály Mészáros

Organisers:

• Meet Production and Processing Enterprise
• MOLOKO Agroholding Enterprise

The main aim is further improvement of modern technologies, efficiency and biological adaptability.

The Moloko Enterprise imported 1200 Hungarian Holstein Friesian pregnant heifers in 2009 from HUNLAND Trade Ltd. The heifers adapted extremely well even under the extremely cold conditions. This is primarily the result of high quality expertees as well as the good genetic basis. The average production of the animals during their first lactation period is 8500 kg. The holding company owns its private dairy factory. The second phase of the project will be ready in September to accomodate further 1200 pregnant heifers. The animals will be delivered again by our firm from the United States. Development of a beef cattle farm holding 1600 animals and that of a complete calf beefing technology is also underway.

The beef production and processing enterprise  is planning the further improvement of its biological basis and technology. This enterprise is also our partner during the consultation developments. The complex technology includes along the import of modern biological stock (Hereford and Angus races) as well as the modernisation of processing.
