We drove through the Yinluo Dairy Farm on the outskirts of Daqing. This farm has 6,000 cows in this location, and two other facilities of similar size in other locations. It is owned by the Liu family. They have plans to add another 10,000 cows.
We stopped briefly to see the AI (artificial insemination) facility, where they collect and sex the semen from 200 bulls.
From the farm, we drove to a milk processing plant under construction in a nearby industrial park. This facility, also owned by the Liu family, will cost $25M and will process mostly fluid products. This processing room is awaiting the installation of equipment.
Mr. Liu Hailong, Chief Executive Officer of
China Milk Products and the son of the head of the Liu family, hosted lunch for us. Lunch featured many dishes that we had not seen before, such as sea cucumber. I think the answer to the question "got milk?" is yes!
