The 8th International Symposium on “Dairy Nutrition and Milk Quality,” co-hosted by the Beijing Institute of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the Food and Nutrition Development Institute of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the China Dairy Industry Association, the American Dairy Science Association, and the New Zealand Ministry for Primary Industries, was successfully held in Beijing from November 19-20, 2023.
More than 400 experts from universities, research institutes, enterprises, and industry organizations in countries and regions such as China, the United States, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Denmark, Ireland, Canada, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Antigua and Barbuda, and Fiji attended the conference.
As one of the top 20 leading fresh milk enterprises (D20) in China’s dairy industry, Changfu Dairy was invited to participate in the conference. The company set up a dedicated booth and provided high-quality pasteurized fresh milk for domestic and international attendees to sample.
The theme of this year’s symposium was “Innovation Leading the High-Quality Development of the Dairy Industry.” The conference featured a series of discussions and exchanges on topics such as “Healthy Dairy Farming,” “Milk Quality,” and “Dairy Consumption,” focusing on theoretical research, technological innovation, and industry development experiences.
Thanks to its active exploration and innovative practices in full-chain standardization, Changfu Dairy was recognized by an expert panel organized by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs as a “Dairy Industry Full-Chain Standardization Pilot Base.” This honor acknowledges the company’s outstanding contributions to promoting high-quality development in the dairy industry through its adherence to full-chain standardization and implementation of the National Premium Milk Program.
Full-chain standardization is a key driver of high-quality development. For many years, Changfu Dairy has upheld a spirit of innovation and persistence, rigorously focusing on high-quality milk sources, production processes, and cold chain transportation to establish a top-notch full-chain system. The company has been deeply committed to the National Premium Milk Program, helping to propel the dairy industry into a new era of high-quality development.
It is worth noting that as early as 2014, during the experimental phase of the National Premium Milk Program, Changfu voluntarily applied and was the first dairy company in China to initiate in-depth cooperation with the program team.
In February 2017, Changfu’s pasteurized fresh milk successfully passed the acceptance test for the National Premium Milk Program, meeting the national premium standards. The milk was recognized not only for its safety but also for its superior quality.
In September 2021, following several technical upgrades, the active nutritional indicators of Changfu’s pasteurized fresh milk reached new heights, placing it at the forefront of global standards. Changfu became the first and only dairy company in China to have all its pasteurized fresh milk products authorized to bear the “National Premium Milk Program” label.
Over the years, Changfu has invested billions of yuan in the pursuit of continuous high-quality development, becoming an important source of premium milk data in China and making significant contributions to the development of the national premium milk standard system. The company has been recognized as a “National Key Leading Enterprise in Agricultural Industrialization” and has been named one of China’s top 20 dairy companies for three consecutive years, reflecting its unwavering commitment to its original mission and purpose.
