The single largest dairy farm in the EU to be built in

Estonia by Trigon Dairy Farming

Key Highlights

This farm aims to be one of the global leaders in

environmentally friendly large-scale dairy farming

The farm is planning to apply a cutting edge

integrated business model:

cereals, milk, biogas CHP, organic fertilizer, large-

scale fish and vegetables farming

Väätsa/Kaiu Development Plan

TDF will develop the single largest mega-farm in the EU with over 4,000 milking cows

• By combining and expanding Väätsa

and Kaiu farms we plan to create the single largest industrial scale dairy

farm in the EU

• Over 8,000 dairy animals (4,000 milking cows and 4,000 young-stock)

• Integrated dairy and crop farming with farmed land of over 6,000 ha

• Up to 80% self-sufficiency in animal

feed production from own farmland

• Over EUR 20 million in new

investments planned

• In 5 years, this farm alone is planned

to produce 48 million kg of milk every year (i.e. equal to 7% of Estonian

raw milk production)

Environmental Sustainability

• Agriculture is one of the largest sectors

contributing to global warming

• Our on-farm biogas plant would capture methane gases to produce electricity, heat

and environmentally friendly organic fertilizer

• Globally unique large-scale integrated fish and

vegetables farming to fully utilize the heat

• The largest modern on-farm biogas

plant in the Nordic and Baltic region

• 3 MW biogas CHP plant planned in Väätsa/Kaiu

Full agricultural waste recycling through a modern biogas CHP technology

Environmental & Social Responsibility

Our aim is to be among the global leaders in

environmentally sustainable large-scale milk production

Environment

Own feed production, selected use of seeds & fertilizers,

waste-to-power conversion, limited environmental impact

Personnel

Each farm has a dedicated team of farming experts with

competitive compensation plans

Animal Welfare

Housed farm systems have shown improved fertility, better

nutrition control and a general improvement in animal welfare (UK National Farmers Union)

2Technology

Our farms employ automated milking parlours and

computerized herd monitoring systems

Our Track Record: Kaiu Farm

• In 2006, we acquired an outdated Soviet-style collective farm which was in the bottom quartile for productivity

• Invested in farm modernization and automation

• Highly experienced team of dairy farmers

• Now produces the highest quality raw milk sold at above-market prices

• Aim to achieve yields of 12,000 kg

We have already built the 2nd most efficient large-scale dairy farm in Estonia
