The second phase of the joint project of  ABAD and AFSA,  “An abattoir meeting modern standards in Guzanly settlement of Aghdam district” just kicked off.

The second stage is the selection of ABAD members. Thus, anyone who is a resident of the Karabakh Economic Region (particularly the Guzanli settlement of the Aghdam region) and wants to be more professionally engaged in animal slaughtering can apply through the “ABADchi” function created on the official website of ABAD. It should be noted that applications for this project will be accepted until August 31, 2021.

At the next stage, the selection of participants will be organized and their potential and business management skills will be assessed, new ABAD members will be identified and they will be provided with services included in the ABAD’s support program. It should be noted that the new butchery, which will operate in the Guzanly settlement of Aghdam, will create new opportunities for local entrepreneurs to set up new services that meet modern requirements.

The main goal of the project is to form favourable conditions for the population engaged in livestock farming, ensure the compatibility of modern slaughter techniques and provide healthier meat and meat products for consumption. The new butcheries to be built will control and prevent the spread of zoonotic diseases, protect people from the animal-to-human transmission. A foundation for the organization of veterinary mechanisms to control animal health in the liberated areas will be laid as soon as possible.
