He says in 2012, Azerbaijan produced 117,000 tonnes of beef, 80,000 tonnes of mutton, 4,000 tonnes of pork and 87,000 tonnes of fowl-flesh.
Farajov noted that in accordance with the world health norm, every person must consume 73 kg of meat throughout a year: “However, according to minimum consumption basket, every person has consumed 20.5 kg of meat in Azerbaijan”.
