Also, for the Apold farm, the company bought additional 200 IGLU* shelters for young cattle, currently counting 600 units, sufficient capacity to cover the growth of the farm’s livestock.
“At DN AGRAR we continue the investments for the development of the company. Until now, the purchases for the Apold farm reach a herd of 1,200 animals, part of which is used to renew the herd of milking cows, and another part to complete the new production capacity of the farm. The investments we made last year, for the modernization and expansion of the milking parlors, allow us to increase both the cattle herd and milk production, without compromising on the quality standards that define our company,” stated Jan Gijbertus, chairman of the board of directors at DN Agrar Group.
The company’s objective is to reach a herd of approximately 12,500 animals this year, an objective that can be achieved both by developing its own farms and by acquiring other farms with vegetable and/or livestock production in the near future.
At present, the group exploits around 7,000 hectares of land in central Transylvania. Locally, the group has an integrated business. The number of employees at group level stands at 240.
The company has a RON117 million capitalization and is 74% held by Dutch group A.M. Advies.
