LAHORE: Livestock is an integral part of agriculture sector of Pakistan and have the potential to get huge share in the international halal trade of over $300 billion.
Government should formulate favourable policies for livestock, which have 55.9 percent and 11.8 percent share in agriculture and GDP, respectively. These views were exchanged between LCCI President Malik Tahir Javaid, who was heading a delegation to the Punjab Agriculture and Meat Company’s (PAMCO) state-of-the art slaughterhouse, and Pamco Chairman Mumtaz Khan Manais on Friday.
The Pamco chairman gave detailed briefing to the LCCI delegation about Pamco’s efforts and sought its help for the promotion of halal exports. Pamco has engaged itself in enhancing the quality production, processing, value addition, marketing and supply chain of meat, livestock, agriculture products and byproducts for local and export markets. The company is providing trainings and technical backstopping at all stages of the integrated meat and agriculture value chains.
