SINCE its introduction to the market four years ago , ALMA Animal Feed has garnered positive feedback from livestock farmers across Malaysia .
The feed ’ s performance in enhancing animal health , growth , and productivity has been a testament to FGV ’ s commitment to quality and sustainability .
One of the most notable success stories comes from a dairy farm in Johor , where the use of ALMA ’ s dairy cattle feed has resulted in milk yields exceeding 21 litres per head daily during peak lactation periods .
This significant increase in milk production has had a direct impact on the farm ’ s profitability , allowing the farmers to reinvest in their operations and expand their herd .
Another success story involves a beef cattle farm in Pahang , where the use of ALMA ’ s beef cattle feed has led to daily weight gains of up to 1.5 kg per animal . This remarkable growth rate has not only improved the farm ’ s overall productivity but also enhanced the quality of the meat , making it more competitive in the market .
“ Our products have performed well since they were introduced to the market four years ago . Besides the positive impact on animal health and reproduction , our beef cattle feed produced around one to 1.5 kg per day weight gain ,” said Head of FGV Integrated Farming Abdul Razak Aya .
“ Our dairy cattle feed produced milk above 21 litres per head ( daily ) during peak stage and 16-litre average for the whole lactation cycle . This performance reflected our competency in producing feed that uses local ingredients and implements sustainable practice .”
The experiences shared illustrate the remarkable impact of ALMA Animal Feed in addressing the unique requirements of regional livestock .
Through the use of locally sourced ingredients and ecofriendly practices , FGV has developed a product line that enhances the health and wellbeing of animals while promoting the enduring sustainability of Malaysia ’ s agricultural sector .
