ABOUT OUR STORY
OUR COMPANY
Eco Farm Solutions was established in 2018 by Dr Ng Siew Thiam and is the first dairy farm to practice a closed house system. Eco Farm is fully automated and is currently practicing modern intensive farming. All the animal feed are grown and sourced locally.
Eco Farm is located at 26th Mile at the old Kuching-Serian road. The farm comprises of 68 acres of land along with its independent processing plant. Total population stand at about 540 cows with 220 milking cows. Our cows are monitored and handled closely to ensure the cow’s welfare are always in check.
WHAT MAKES ECO FARM DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER FARMS?
Our cows are kept in constant cool environment which is about 22-26°C everyday. The cows are fed with locally grown maize and sorghum which is ensiled for 21 days before feeding it to the cows. Besides silage, we also feed our cows with concentrate and fresh barley sprouts. Our barley sprouts are grown in a fodder system which is harvested and planted daily. It takes 8 days for the barley sprout to grow from seed to readily available sprouts. Our seeds are planted directly onto trays in a cold room with UV lights available to help the sprouts grow.
