ALMAKO – QFPB

- Since 2000, ALMAKO has been concentrated on the agriculture sector, with its focus from farming, breeding to feed production. Until now, we have conducted more than 150 seminars in the agriculture sector.
- The focus was initially on the cattle area, but later also the poultry, the pigs and broilers sector were also in our focus. Every year, we have brought to Albania more than 3000 pregnant cows, delivered more than 700,000 hens, and together with the austrian company Schaumann, we are very active in the field of ration formulation. More than 10 years ago we also brought to Albania modern silage production with probiotic instead of salt conservation.
- Our concern is to promote the development of the agriculture according to the EU standards. Therefore our employees have been often trained in Austria and we have also carried out a lot of training courses. In the last 15 years we have regularly brought Austrian consultants to Albania, in order to help with problematic operations.
- In the period of 2005-2010, ALMAKO conducted a project on the field of Agriculture in Albania, in cooperation with the Austrian Development Agency. This is when “The Center for professional qualification of farmers – QFPB” was created, which offers trainings in the region, held by international experts in the relevant fields.
