Ethiopia's highlands are among Africa's most productive agricultural regions, with altitudes of 2,000-3,000m providing ideal conditions for alfalfa. The country's rapidly growing dairy sector — with over 60 million cattle — needs quality forage. Kohenoor International ships via the transit port of Djibouti.
Ethiopian Highlands: Ideal for Alfalfa — የኢትዮጵያ ከፍተኛ መልካዘ: ለአልፋልፋ ተገቢ
The Ethiopian Highlands' temperate climate and fertile volcanic soils support excellent alfalfa production. KN92 produces 4-5 cuts year-round at altitude with 20%+ protein. Government dairy development programs are driving demand for quality forage seeds across Amhara, Oromia, and SNNPR regions.
Dairy Sector Growth — የወተት ዘሯፊ እድገት
Ethiopia's dairy sector is growing 5-7% annually. Improved forage is essential for transitioning from traditional to commercial production. Our varieties provide the protein-rich feed dairy cows need for increased milk yields. Alfalfa-based rations can double milk production compared to native grass.
