About
Cullen Agricultural Technologies Inc.
Cullen
Agritech is a newly formed company committed to the development and
commercialization of advanced agricultural technologies. Cullen Agritech’s
principal focus will be to improve agricultural yields through pasture and
animal sciences.
Natural
Dairy Inc. (“Natural Dairy”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cullen Agritech, will
rollout Cullen Agritech’s multi-farm dairy operation in the Southeastern United
States utilizing the Cullen Agritech farming system. Natural Dairy will be
acquiring and converting farmland for the development of pasture based dairy
farming operations to produce fresh liquid milk for the Eastern Seaboard. The
Eastern Seaboard represents one of the largest fresh liquid milk markets in the
world but is currently undersupplied of liquid milk due to a lack of regionally
based milk producers. By utilizing an efficient, pasture-based farming system,
Natural Dairy will help bridge this supply gap by producing milk in the
Southeastern States at a substantially lower cost than could be achieved through
the traditional dairy farming model.
