The complex, expected to cost more than VND 1.2 trillion (USD 52 million), will cover between 300ha and 350ha in Huong Vinh commune, Huong Khe district.
It will comprise one to two dairy farms which will be home to up to 8,000 dairy cows and one beef cow farm with a scale from 2,000 to 4,000 heads.
