$200 Million Dairy Modernization Project in China

A delegation from Wisconsin's sister-state in China, Heilongjiang Province, was in Madison on Wednesday, January 9 to meet with potential suppliers for a $200 million on a dairy improvement project. Staff from the Wisconsin International Trade Team organized the meeting held at the Wisconsin Department of Commerce.

The delegation came to Madison to describe a World Bank project to modernize its dairy industry. Wisconsin companies likely to benefit from the project include those that provide bull semen, milking and dairy equipment, dairy-related management software and information systems, feed manufacturing and mixing equipment and environmental and waste management systems.
