“A dairy farm is being established in Lasbela District on 3,000 acres. A similar dairy farm is to be established in Quetta on 1,000 acres.
“In this regard, talks with the private company are under way, as the company is interested in investing in Lasbela,” said Balochistan Livestock Secretary Dostain Jamaludini during his visit to Uthal.
He said a slaughter house will be built in Hub and a cattle market will be set up on borders with Punjab.
