Mongolia opens a new processing plant in Zavkhan province
Mongolia has finished the construction of a new processing plant in the province of Zavkhan, in the western part of the country, thanks to an agreement established with Bayan New Food Century.
The unit has a daily processing capacity of 500 sheep/goats and 150 cattle and aims to cover the domestic demand in the province. Also, the investment can be expanded in the future to take export orders as well, informs Montasame News Agency.
At the beginning of the year, Mongolian authorities have reported nationwide 98.4% of deliveries in the sheep breeding and a low mortality rate of livestock offspring. However, harsh weather in some provinces, including Zavkhan, has impacted the mortality rate among offsprings.
