Turkey: Turkey Opens Up Breeding and Feeder Cattle Imports
Turkey has just started to implement the new subsidy program for young farmers in Turkey. Within this scope, General Directorate of Agricultural Establishments (TIGEM) affiliated to Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock (MinFAL) will buy 50,000 head of cattle (feeder/breeding, bulls) from authorized countries eligible to import Turkey, and will grant these cattle to young farmers. The Turkish government will work directly with the exporting country organization. U.S. organizations/entities interested in exporting cattle to Turkey should contact FAS Ankara.
