"We are creating hundreds of jobs and establishing excellent conditions. This enterprise is of great importance for the development of agriculture both in the Shamakhi district and across the country. It is the largest meat and dairy farm not only in Azerbaijan but also in the South Caucasus. We are currently working to reduce the volume of imports, " President Ilham Aliyev said during a meeting with the staff of the “Shirvan Agro” livestock complex at its opening in Shamakhi, APA reports.
"We are currently working to reduce the volume of imports. Our goal is to ensure 100 percent self-sufficiency in meat, milk, and dairy products. We are approaching this goal, although it has not yet been fully achieved. The launch of such farms will help us reach this objective. In fact, we will also be able to export meat and dairy products in the future," leader added.
