Initial construction for the zone, which will stretch along the 2,463-square-kilometre shoals of the Yellow River, is already under way in Xinxiang, and in Zhengzhou, the provincial capital, Xie Zhensheng, director of the animal husbandry bureau, said on Tuesday. High-producing milk cows will be imported and bred in the pilot areas, and the industrialization of the dairy business will be revved up, Xie said. According to the plan, the model dairy zone will contain 100,000 head of cattle including 60,000 milk producing cows, with a designed annual production capacity of 300,000 tons of quality fresh milk.
