Feihe Dairy, a subsidiary of Feihe International Inc, has joined with a Harbin-based vocational college to nurture dairy talent, a move experts said will help ensure the industry's safety standards are met.

With the development of China's domestic dairy industry, especially the introduction of infant formula regulations, the demand for high-end dairy talent continues to rise, said Liang Aimei, vice-president of Feihe International.

Liang said the industry needs more management personnel, technicians, quality inspectors and workers in cow breeding programs.
