Processing centers to be built to ensure fair prices for livestock products: Minister
Fisheries and Livestock and Agriculture Minister Mohammad Amin Ur Rashid has said that initiatives will be taken to set up packaging and processing centers at the local level to ensure fair prices for livestock sector products.

He said that farmers often suffer losses due to not getting fair prices. To solve this problem, effective measures must be taken at every stage of production, preservation, processing and marketing. If necessary, government assistance will be provided to set up small-scale processing centers.

He said that if information on production and demand for agricultural inputs can be preserved through farmer cards, government planning and supply system will be more effective. At the same time, he emphasized taking integrated initiatives to free the country from dependence on agricultural imports and make it export-oriented.

At the event, 25 trainees were given heifers and animal feed, and improved varieties of tree saplings were distributed among 100 farmers. Later, the minister released fish fry into a canal of the Fuldi river.
