A modern dairy farm complex has been opened in the Liozno district after reconstruction
The facility was built within the framework of Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus No. 442 "On the Construction and Reconstruction of Dairy Farms". The complex includes two cow barns with a milking and milk processing unit, a dry cow housing, a calving pen, a calf nursery, silage trenches, and a water intake.
During the opening of the complex, the Chairman of the Regional Executive Committee, Alexander Subbotin, emphasized that the Vitebsk region particularly needs modern livestock facilities where milk production technology can be meticulously observed. Last year, 10 dairy complexes were built, and ten more are under construction this year. The strategy for the development of the livestock industry provides for the construction of over 130 facilities. In the coming years, 10-15 facilities will be commissioned annually.
According to the Chairman of the Liozno District Executive Committee, Ivan Fedorov, the complex in the village of Chernoruchye was built in 15 months. It will allow "Dolzha-Agro" to increase its daily milk production from 8 to 15 tons in the future.
The General Director of OJSC "BelVitunipharm", Ilya Darovskikh, noted that the modern complex was urgently needed. It will allow concentrating the livestock, previously housed in outdated farms, in one place. It is planned to create a breeding nucleus of high-yielding cows here, which will affect the milk production level. An important factor is that the working conditions for employees have significantly improved.
