Dairymaster has partnered with Beijing Kingpeng Global Husbandry Technology Co Ltd (KPGH), a high-tech Chinese enterprise specialising in the planning and construction of modern livestock farms and turnkey projects.

The deal was signed in China this week, coinciding with a trade mission led by Minister for Agriculture Michael Creed.

The partnership will see Dairymaster provide advanced dairy farm equipment to customers in China, including Dairymaster parlours and MooMonitors to monitor herd health and fertility.

KPGH’s focus is on turnkey projects with farm sizes ranging from 2,000 to 10,000 cows.

“Dairymaster is a very professional company with a large product range that will add a lot of value to our business and we are looking forward to successful business partnership.”

Fergus O’Meara, international business development manager with Dairymaster, commented: “We see Kingpeng Husbandry as an ideal long-term partner for our dairy technology, they have excellent knowledge of the dairy industry.

“Many of Dairymaster products are scientifically tested and proven which has a lot of value to Kingpeng Husbandry as the performance measurements can be validated. I think this announcement re-iterates the capability of Dairymaster and the excellent product offering we have for dairy farmers worldwide.”

KPGH was established by the Beijing Agricultural Machinery Institute, which was founded in 1959. KPGH is the first stock-listed company in the animal husbandry equipment in China.
