Turkiye: 2024-2028 Livestock Roadmap Overview

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TU2024-0030
Turkiye’s Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, Ibrahim Yumakli, announced the “2024-2028 Livestock Roadmap” in February 2024, following significant decreases in domestic livestock inventories. These shortages were the result of a sizable increase in the number of slaughtered female cattle after domestic raw milk prices fell sharply. At the same time, Turkiye has seen a 640 percent increase over the previous year in live cattle imports, which were valued at $1.2 billion in 2023. The roadmap, which the Ministry continues to promote, seeks to secure Turkiye's domestic livestock industry through support to women and family-farms, as well as to increase the viability of Turkiye's livestock genetics inventory.
