Azerbaijan is interested in the Arashan breed of cattle bred in Kyrgyzstan

During his official visit to Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan's Minister of Agriculture, Mejnun Gadir oglu Mammadov, showed particular interest in the Arashan breed of cattle, which was bred by Kyrgyz breeders.

During his trip to the Chui region, the minister visited the Altyn Arashan agricultural enterprise in the village of Arashan and the Arashan Malek enterprise in the village of Mayevka, where he familiarized himself with modern agricultural technologies, livestock breeding methods, and local cattle breeds.

He paid special attention to the Arashan breed, which was bred in Kyrgyzstan as a result of local selection. This meat breed is distinguished by its high endurance and resistance to the region's climate, rapid weight gain, high-quality meat characteristics, and economical feed consumption, which makes it particularly profitable for farmers.

The head of Azerbaijan's agricultural department highly praised the potential of the Arashan breed and noted the prospects for bilateral cooperation in the field of livestock breeding and the exchange of agricultural technologies.

Following the visit, Mehdun Mammadov also held meetings with farm staff and expressed confidence in the expansion of cooperation between the two countries in the agricultural sector.
