DAIRY FARMING

90,000 tons of high-quality milk powder. Due to the nature of milk
powder and its long shelf life, it is particularly suitable for Arla’s
international markets, where milk powder is an integral and impor-
tant part of the local diet, especially in fast-growing urban areas.
The raw milk needed for this is sourced primarily from Arla farms
in the region and creates a sustainable channel to support higher
returns to farmer owners.
“I am very pleased to inaugurate the expansion of our Pronsfeld
dairy today. Securing that as many as possible have access to a
good, nutritious diet every day is one of the biggest challenges we
face globally. As part of our recently launched Future26 strategy,
we will strengthen and expand our business in international markets 2022 دهشملا دوقي
such as the Middle East, West Africa and Southeast Asia where لـــيوــحت يـــف
the demand for affordable, nutritious dairy products exceeds local
production as well as local supply. As the largest Arla dairy in the تاناوـــيحلا ةـــيبرت
world with a strong export business, the new production plant
gives Pronsfeld an even greater place in the growth strategy of
our international business,” says Peder Tuborgh, CEO at Arla Foods.
“I am very proud about the work of the Arla teams who, together
with our partners, have enabled this expansion of our Pronsfeld
dairy to come to life. This is an important step in the evolution of our
manufacturing footprint towards more efficient and decarbonized
dairy production, building on our strengths here in Germany and
leveraging the latest technologies. This sets the standards for our
future generation of assets that will support our new strategy to
be a leader in value creation and sustainability,” says Executive
Vice President and head of Arla’s supply chain, David Boulanger.
The construction of the production plant was initiated in 2019.
Now, Pronsfeld dairy employs 1000 people and produces dairy
products to around 70 countries globally.

FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY يراجتلا ضرعــملا

Arla is committed to creating a sustainable future for dairy. Arla’s
farmer owners are already amongst the most climate efficient ملاـــعلا يف دــــئارلا
dairy producers in the world with an average carbon footprint of
only 1.15 kilo CO2e per kilo of milk. In its operations, Arla is also
committed to limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees and is one
of the first farmer owned dairy companies in the world to have
its 1.5 degrees target for operations of 63 per cent reduction of
greenhouse gas emissions approved by the Science Based Target
Initiative (SBTi) under the Paris Agreement.
The expansion of Pronsfeld dairy is set to deliver towards the
new ambitious climate goals within operations with an improved
sustainability profile and energy efficiency. A new technical setup for لمشي
electricity and heat generation, called a CHP, and process cooling
will reduce the carbon footprint and electricity consumption with
about 1,800 megawatt hours of electricity and about 1,200 tons
of CO2e per year for the whole dairy site compared to a traditional
cooling solution.
