Maxximilk Overview
Maxximilk aims to help dairy farmers dramatically boost their profitability through the transfer of pedigree embryos for increased milk yields. The company produces in-vitro, ready-to-transfer pedigree embryos whose genetic material is derived from professionally inbred cows with average annual milk yields of 11.5 tons. With Maxximilk, dairy farmers can bypass decades-long breeding programs and acquire new herds of champion milk-producing cows in 32 months. Maxximilk opened a production facility in the Indian state of Maharashtra in 2017, after partnering with the Godrej Agrovet Ltd animal feed company.

Israel firm plans surrogate cow farm near Mumbai to help boost milk output
AlefBet Planners Ltd., an Israeli company, is starting a surrogate cow farm near Mumbai to meet the growing demand for milk from Indias middle class. The farm will house 40 Holstein cows as egg donors and 450 surrogates that will carry the embryos to term. Calves born at the farm will be sold to Indian farmers. Indias milk production falls short of demand due to low genetic potential and a low-output system. AlefBet Planners is collaborating with Maxximilk and Indias Godrej Group, specializing in in-vitro fertilization of cows. The project is unique and complicated due to the need to combine advanced technology with the principles of the Hindu faith.

Maxximilk Ltd., an Israeli company, is partnering with Godrej Agrovet Ltd. in India to produce genetically superior embryos for surrogate heifers. The embryos are genetically predisposed to withstand hot weather conditions and produce greater quantities of top-quality milk. Maxximilk has set up a production facility in Maharashtra, India, and is currently producing female embryos using sex-sorted semen from the United States and Canada. The company plans to establish more breeding centers in different states in India to improve indigenous Indian breeds and increase milk production. The partnership with Godrej Agrovet has allowed Maxximilk to transfer its technology to India and tap into the countrys large dairy industry.
