The “Ukrainian Dairy Company,” located in the Kyiv region, has announced a large-scale expansion of its production. The enterprise plans to build its own feed mill, a new phase of a dairy farm for 4,000 cows, as well as an additional biogas plant capable of producing 5,000 cubic meters of gas per day.

Currently, the farm houses over 11,000 heads of cattle. The company receives 160 tons of milk daily. The production facilities already allow for the generation of 670 cubic meters of biogas, which is equivalent to 1,050 kW of electricity per hour. The self-generated electricity powers almost all agricultural machinery used by the company. Energy production occurs through the processing of organic waste from livestock farming.
The company employs 450 people, with an average salary of nearly 30,000 hryvnias.
Step Towards Complete Energy Independence
“Implementing these plans will allow the ‘Ukrainian Dairy Company’ to establish a fully closed production cycle: from growing feed and raising cattle to producing milk, biogas, and electricity. The goal is complete energy independence: self-generated electricity, transitioning to biogas instead of traditional fuels, and providing the animals with 100% of their own feed.”
The implementation of the project will enable the enterprise to become independent from external energy and feed suppliers, enhancing the economic stability of the agro-company and contributing to the development of the local economy in the Kyiv region.
