U.S.-based agricultural services to crop and livestock company Cargill has opened a new $28 million feed mill in Binh, southern Vietnam.

The 48,000-square-meter feed mill produces a wide portfolio of poultry and swine feed and has an annual capacity of 240,000 tonnes. The mill is Cargill’s twelfth animal nutrition facility in the country.

As the company’s largest and most innovative feed mill in Vietnam, a large portion of the plant’s operations are automated, allowing for increased operational efficiency and an enhanced customer experience, providing excellent service for a range of demands.

Cargill said that this new facility gives the company a platform for the co-prosperity of both Cargill and the livestock industry as the company works with the government, local communities and partners to help build a sustainable feed industry with a long-term future in Vietnam.
