The Sindh govt has introduced modern breeding technology to improve cattle breeds and increase milk and meat production across the province.
The Sindh Livestock Department, working with Fongrow, has successfully completed the province’s first embryo transfer experiment.
The experiment was conducted at the Sindh Institute of Animal Science. It marks a new development in the province’s livestock sector.
The initiative aims to improve local cattle breeds using advanced scientific methods. It is also expected to help farmers increase livestock productivity.
Sindh CM Praises New Breeding Technology
Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah congratulated the Livestock Department on successfully completing the experiment.
Livestock Minister Muhammad Ali Malkani briefed the chief minister about the project and its expected benefits.
Murad Ali Shah said the technology could make cattle breeding much faster and more effective.
