The Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) has signed an agreement with Najd Gateway Holding Company of Saudi Arabia in the livestock sector.
The agreement includes cultivation of 5,000 acres of alfalfa for cattle fodder, which is later exported.
Pakistani soil has great potential for breeding high quality livestock products with high nutritional and protein content. This crop is cultivated in many countries of the world and is used as a fodder crop.
Alfalfa is a herbaceous legume that is one of the world’s most important forage legumes, due to its high nutritional quality, yield and high adaptability.
This forage is a major source of protein for livestock, and is also a staple diet for dairy cattle, beef, horses, sheep, goats, and other livestock.
