Mostafa El-Sayyad, Deputy Minister of Agriculture for Livestock, Fish and Poultry Resources, said that the total amount that has been pumped into the national project for veal so far has amounted to EGP 7.7bn. This amount was pumped for about 42,330 beneficiaries, for the breeding and fattening of more than 486,000 heads of livestock, whether calves for meat production or high-productivity wheels to provide more meat and milk.





El-Sayyad highlighted the approval of the project’s board of directors, headed by the Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation Elsayed Elkosayer, to approve EGP 155.7m for 213 beneficiaries of small scale breeders, with a total of 5,769 head of livestock, within the framework of the presidential initiative Haya Kareema launched by President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi to develop the Egyptian countryside. 


El-Sayyad ordered the Livestock and Poultry Development Sector and the General Authority for Veterinary Services, in coordination with the Directorates of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine at the governorate level, to intensify field follow-up on the beneficiaries of the national veal project, while providing all aspects of veterinary and health care, studying any problems facing the beneficiaries on the ground, and working to overcome them in budding.
