Minister aims to develop Pakistan poultry industry
// 13 Jun 2007
Pakistan's minister of Food, Agriculture and Livestock
says that the government will provide necessary help and input for the
development of the poultry industry so that the general masses in the country
will get chicken meat, eggs and other poultry products at an affordable
rate.
Chairing the 28th meeting of Federal Poultry Board, the minister Sikandar Hayat Khan Bosan said that poultry
associations and poultry businessmen should keep their profits low so that the
underprivileged people are also able to gain benefits from the government's
inputs.
For further development of the poultry industry in Pakistan, the Board has
recommended that custom duty of evaporative air cooling system pads for use in
poultry form should be reduced.
It was also decided that custom duty on import of various medicines,
poultry feed raw material and silos used by poultry feed industry should also be
reduced.
