MPIC, Israeli firm launch dairy facilityMANILA, Philippines — The MVP Group has teamed up with Israeli firm LR Group Ltd. to boost Philippine dairy production with a P2-billion state-of the-art farm facility producing fresh milk and milk derivatives. The team-up presents a significant growth opportunity for MPIC and the Philippines, as the country currently imports 99 percent of its annual dairy requirements. The new farm facility will have a capacity of up to 2,000 cows. The farm facility will also have highly mechanized and automated operations to maximize fresh milk’s shelf life, which will ensure adherence to quality and safety standards. It will also be equipped with solar farms that will produce power for the dairy facility, a water treatment plant that will provide human-grade drinking water for the cattle, and a waste management facility that will allow the facility to produce fertilizer.
