"Dangjin Dairy & Livestock Cooperative 'Jayeon Geudaero' is a smart dairy complex established to solve the difficulties of the domestic dairy industry, such as an aging population, lack of successor farmers, and environmental regulations, and to strengthen its competitiveness. It is a large-scale project spanning 10 years, completing a resource-circulating agricultural system and presenting a new paradigm for eco-friendly and efficient dairy farming."

Business Areas

• Smart Dairy Complex Operation: Operating with 1,000 lactating cows, an average of 32 tons of raw milk is produced daily through a rotary parlor milking machine capable of milking 60 cows simultaneously. It is operated with the goal of labor reduction and productivity improvement.
• ICT-based Intelligent Feeding Management: By introducing cutting-edge ICT technology, individual dairy cow biometric information and environmental data are collected and analyzed in real-time. This enables precise feeding management and contributes to promoting the development of smart farm technology in Korea.
• Establishment of Resource-Circulating Agricultural System: Livestock manure is processed into compost and biochar at the joint resource recovery facility, and TMR feed is produced from forage cultivated in the forage production complex. This is a key business area for realizing eco-friendly resource-circulating agriculture.

Products

• Raw Milk: High-quality raw milk produced at the smart dairy complex amounts to approximately 32 tons daily and 11,000 tons annually. Stable raw milk is supplied through the latest milking systems and hygiene management.
• Livestock Manure Fertilizer and Biochar: Compost and pellet-type biochar produced through the joint livestock manure resource recovery facility are supplied to local farms, contributing to eco-friendly agriculture. This plays an important role in reducing resource waste and preventing environmental pollution.
• TMR Feed: Utilizing corn, oats, etc., cultivated in the forage production complex, 89,000 tons of TMR (Total Mixed Ration) feed are produced annually. High-quality feed is directly provided to dairy cows through self-produced feed.

Special Notes

• Cutting-edge ICT-based Productivity and Efficiency: Labor is reduced and productivity is maximized through a rotary parlor milking machine capable of milking 60 cows simultaneously and an individual data-based intelligent feeding management system. This contributes to the production of high-quality raw milk.
• Realization of Sustainable Resource-Circulating Agriculture: By organically linking forage production, TMR feed manufacturing, and livestock manure resource recovery facilities, environmental regulations and civil complaint issues are resolved. It also leads the practice of carbon neutrality through the production of eco-friendly biomass products.
