AqAltyn 2026 Participants Will Visit Asia Milk's New Farm with 2,350 Cattle

The farm is located in the village of Zertass, Tolebi District, Turkestan Region. Construction of the complex began in April 2025, and on May 24, 2026, it was put into operation.

The farm covers an area of 10 hectares. The planned herd size is about 2,300–2,350 heads. The forage herd is designed for 1,200 animals, including about 1,000 dairy cows and 200 dry cows.

Approximately 1,150 heads will be young stock, including heifers and calves, raised for annual herd renewal and replacement of culled cows.

To form the herd, Asia Milk purchases purebred Holstein cattle from Denmark. The first 165 animals have already arrived at the farm. Another 165 heads are planned to be delivered on September 24, and a third batch of 330 heads in early November 2026. Formation of the main herd is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

The farm is equipped with DeLaval milking equipment: a carousel for 40 milking places and a 'herringbone' milking parlor for 10 places. During the tour, AqAltyn participants will be able to see the milking process organization and discuss technological solutions provided for herd maintenance.

The complex is also equipped with an MDN GRUP manure removal scraper system, SKOV ventilation system, Buschhoff grinding equipment, and SILOKING feed distribution machinery. Stall equipment was supplied by "Jahon Agro Villa".

The tour at Asia Milk will be a practical continuation of the AqAltyn 2026 business program, which will be held on November 30 and December 1 in Shymkent. During the congress, participants will discuss the economics of dairy farms, investment in production, farm management, processing development, export, and work with retail chains.

Visiting the new farm will allow participants to directly familiarize themselves with the implementation of the dairy project in the Turkestan region and discuss issues of herd formation, equipment selection, rearing replacement young stock, and bringing the complex to design capacity.
