Malaysia: Growing dairy projects seeking productive, heat-adapted genetics
Malaysia relies heavily on imported milk and dairy products, and government and private investors are developing commercial dairy farms to raise local production. Projects in states such as Johor, Pahang, Sabah and Sarawak look for productive dairy cattle and genetics that can perform in a hot, humid tropical climate. TXLG supplies Malaysian buyers with dairy cattle, Holstein and crossbred heifers, and dairy and beef genetics from the USA, prepared to Malaysia's import protocol.

Frequently asked questions
Can TXLG export dairy cattle to Malaysia?
Yes. TXLG sources Holstein, Jersey and crossbred heifers in the USA and prepares them to the protocol agreed with Malaysia's Department of Veterinary Services, including testing, isolation and USDA export certification.
Which dairy breeds suit Malaysia's climate?
Pure Holsteins need good cooling and management in Malaysia's heat. Many farms use Holstein × Jersey or other crossbreds for better heat tolerance, and Jersey for milk components. TXLG helps match genetics to your system.
