Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry

Overview

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry is tasked with the regulation and oversight of agricultural policies, playing a pivotal role in the safety and sustainability of agricultural practices across the nation. This includes significant influence over the dairy industry, ensuring that it operates within safe and sustainable parameters.

Location

The ministry functions through various regional branches dispersed across the country. These branches are instrumental in implementing directives and maintaining comprehensive control over the agricultural activities within their respective regions.

Important Events

In a recent development, the General Directorate of Food Control, a subdivision of the ministry, announced the closure of livestock markets. This decision was made in response to an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease, aiming to curtail the spread of the disease and protect livestock health.

Plans

Looking forward, the ministry plans to bolster its disease control measures, aiming to enhance the infrastructure for monitoring livestock health. It is set to work closely with local branches to ensure these measures are effectively implemented. Additionally, the ministry is encouraging the transition from corn to sorghum as a response to water scarcity issues by providing a 75% seed subsidy to support this agricultural shift.
