Today, Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Tatarstan - Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Tatarstan Marat Zyabbarov visited a dairy cattle-breeding complex under construction in the village of Malorechensky, Yelabuga region of Tatarstan. He was accompanied by the head of the District Executive Committee Rustem Nuriyev.

A week ago, 407 Holstein breeding heifers from Denmark were brought to the farm. During this time, the animals have adapted and feel great. Another 400 cows delivery is planned for September. The maternity ward and the dairy room are being installed.

“In October, we expect the first calving, after which milk production will begin,” said Elena Sobina, Director General of Mir LLC. 

In general, the complex is designed for more than 2000 cows. According to the heads of Mir LLC, this is just an ideal platform for milk production. Now the main issue is arrangement of a road to the complex.

Fodder for cows will be grown here, in Malorechenskoye, on the farm. In addition to milk production, the plans of Mir LLC are to grow corn on this farm on an area of 600-700 hectares, another 3,000 hectares will be allocated for barley, and the rest of the territory will be sown with perennial grasses.

The head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan noted that for the Yelabuga region, the construction of such a complex is a good opportunity, which will not only increase the livestock population and milk yield, but also create new jobs.
