Snow Brand Megmilk has entered into a commissioned research agreement with Hokkaido University to study the actual state of feed logistics for dairy farming, and began the study on 1 October. By examining the distribution of domestically produced self-supplied feed, the study aims to obtain basic information for sustainable dairy farming.
Snow Brand Megmilk has begun a study of the actual state of distribution of domestically produced self-supplied feed under a commissioned research agreement with Hokkaido University. The study will examine transactions, transportation and use from production areas to users.
The study will cover Hokkaido and the other prefectures and will include case studies, field surveys and a literature review, with the aim of understanding the actual state of distribution of domestically produced self-supplied feed. Associate Professor Yoshino Akiki (清水池義治) of the Research Faculty of Agriculture at Hokkaido University is in charge.
The study is expected to deepen knowledge of the effective use of domestically produced feed and contribute to developing basic information for considering sustainable dairy production.
Snow Brand Megmilk positions contributing to sustainable dairy farming as a key priority and aims to improve the sustainability of regional dairy farm management and agriculture by using this research to promote broader adoption.
