What’s Happening In Mongolia’s Meat and Dairy Industry?

The Mongolia Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Light Industry hosted a training and discussion event on January 09 2017 with presenters offering insights into a new powdered milk processing plant. The new plant comes right on time as Mongolia’s Meat and Milk Campaign started January 01, 2017 in hopes of increasing access to high quality meat and dairy products for all Mongolians.

Prime Minister J. Erdenebat met with diary entrepreneurs, local farmers, and researchers to discuss the meat and dairy industry in Mongolia.

The new facility will have the capacity to produce 600 liters worth of powdered milk in a single 8 hour day. The Prime Minister suggested that such plants should increase, hoping to stabilize prices for dairy products by establishing state of the art facilities around Mongolia. This would help to provide job security for the nation’s diary farmers who will be sure to have easy access to serve local demand.

With the needs of Mongolia’s population met, an increase in dairy farming and factories would power important exports of key dairy products. Such exports may be especially lucrative with China just south of the border with an increasingly wealthy population craving high quality natural and organic meat and diary products.
