World Angus Forum made it clear: Romania is the European country with the fastest rate of population growth for Aberdeen Angus cattle population. It stands now at 126% increase in population compared to number existing just a few years ago, mentioned Nagy Peter Tamas, member of Romanian Aberdeen Angus Association's board of directors.
"Thanks to the Association more than 90% of the cattle are certified breed. Now we have to stop exporting the livestock and focus on feed them and slaughter them here, in Romania, in order to increase our beef exports in the future", said Tamas.
