The project owner is AGALEP (Asociación de Ganaderos Lecheros del Perú). AGALEP was created in 2004, has 41 members at national level, who are representatives of milk producer organisations in the regions. The member organisations are 9 Fongales (regional milk producers’ organisations), 20 associations who are not part of Fongal and 12 independents (privates). In total they do represent about 6.000 members, of which 30% are women. AGALEP is affiliated to CONVEAGRO that is a partner of Agriterra.
AGALEP mainly focus on helping its members production of milk, through quality control regulations, price control, protections for the internal market, livestock programs ...

The lack of knowledge regarding the present situation and the perspective of the farming sector in Peru increases the uncertainty in which cattle and milk producers are. The situation becomes even more critic with the commercial opening in which the country has embarked. In order to guarantee the viable development of these sectors, prospective market analyses are required. The producers need to improve the quality and quantity of their milk production and look for opportunities of selling it in the best way. Indeed, in Peru, 3 multinational represent 90% of the processed milk, buying milk at a very low price.

This proposal is divided in 2 parts.
On the one hand AGALEP will realize analises of the milk production sector to determine the most effective measures that need to be taken to increase the competitiveness of its members. The quality of the milk produced in each region will be analised in order to define the measures requested to improve it. These analyses and diagnoses, realized in each productive region in a participatory way, would allow to identify the most advanced sectors and those that are not yet. The results of such analizes will help each regional organisation establish strategies of integral development based on the economic reality of their region.
A document that will contain a characterization of the milk production sector and a regional analisis is expected at the end of the project. Based on this document AGALEP and its members will build their business plan.

On the other hand, AGALEP will realize a market analisis of the milk sector in Peru and a feasable study for the implementation of a milk factory. A market analisis of the milk sector will be realised in order to define AGALEP strategy for the implementation of the factory. Then a feasable study will be executed to define the necessary costs, elaborate an inversion plan, define the possible volumes sold...These studies will be executed in 4 regions where AGALEP has members. A feasability study and a market analisis are expected at the end of the project that will be used to find funding in order to implement the factory.

The requested budget is approximatedly of € 23.000 of which € 19.150 are requested to Agriterra. AGALEP and FONGAL LIMA, one of its member, will bring the balance.
