Minister of Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture, Wael bin Nasser Al Mubarak, met livestock breeders and traders to discuss preparations for supplying local markets ahead of Eid Al-Adha.

The meeting focused on ensuring the availability of livestock and meat products during the holiday season, when demand traditionally rises across the Gulf kingdom.

The minister said the ministry was committed to supporting breeders and traders by providing facilities to ease livestock imports and improve the flow of supplies into the local market.

He stressed the importance of continued coordination between authorities and private sector operators to secure sufficient quantities of livestock and meat during the Eid period.

He added that veterinary checks and monitoring procedures aimed to protect public health and ensure the safety of animal products sold in local markets.
