VN, Japanese firms cooperate in Waguy cow farming

 Huy Long An Limited Company and Japan’s Sawai Ranch on Sunday signed an agreement for cooperation in Japanese-style Waguy cow farming in the southern province of Long An’s Duc Hue District.

This is the first time Viet Nam and Japan have cooperated in raising Waguy cow.

Waguy cows would be raised on farms of Huy Long An company following strict process with supervision from Japanese experts to ensure quality.

Waguy beef would be partly sold in the domestic market and partly exported to Japan.

Vo Quang Huy, director of the Huy Long An Limited Company, said the company currently owns one of the largest cow raising farms in Viet Nam with the capacity to raise 30,000 cows.

It was estimated that each Waguy cow could be worth around US$40,000.

Sawai Ranch is experienced in raising Waguy cow under the brand OHMI – one of the three famous Japanese beef brands.

Le Van Hoang, director of Long An Province’s Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, said the province was promoting the application of high technologies in agricultural development.
