The Project


The goal of this five year project was to support Colombia to develop a profitable and competitive dairy farming sector (high tropical zone) through widespread adoption of integrated management systems, developed and adapted from New Zealand and Colombia dairy experience and validated under Colombian conditions. The project was primarily focused on Colombia’s small and medium scale farmers in three regions of the Colombian high altitude tropical zone (Nariño, Boyaca and Cundinamarca) which share a similar pasture based dairying system to New Zealand.

The Project was developed and was being implemented in collaboration with Colombian Partners, in particular the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) and the main Colombian research agency AgriSavia.

The New Zealand investment in the project will be approximately NZ $4 million supplemented by the Colombian contribution of about NZ $1 million.

 

Good Practice Guides for Farmers


Our team in Colombia developed ten good practice guides to help support dairy farmers to adopt good farming practices and make informed decisions. Short videos accompany the guides.
