Turkmen entrepreneur raises more than 820 "Simmental" and "Holstein" cattle

In the livestock complex of entrepreneur Bashim Sopyyev, located in the Ak Bugday district, more than 820 cattle of the "Simmental" and "Holstein" breeds, known for their high milk yield, are currently being raised. This was reported in the "Rysgal" newspaper published on Monday. For several years now, entrepreneur Bashim Sopyyev has been leasing a previously existing farm in the Ak Bugday district, increasing his experience in this complex sector by improving its material and technical base and enhancing the livestock breeds. As noted in the report, a few kilometers away from the existing livestock complex, the construction of a more powerful facility is proceeding at a high pace. Here, a modern livestock complex is being built on 10 hectares of the 250-hectare area allocated to Bashim Sopyyev for long-term use. The new complex, which will allow for the raising of about 5,000 pedigree cattle, is planned to be equipped with technologies and automated milking equipment to monitor the health, nutrition, and movement of each animal through special sensors. According to the project, the farm territory will include cowsheds, buildings for feeding meat-oriented livestock, a milking department, feed warehouses, silage areas, a garage for machinery, security and livestock shelters, a slaughterhouse, a transformer house, utility buildings, pools, a workshop for processing products, a finished product warehouse, and disinfection barriers. With the commissioning of the livestock complex, about 100 new jobs will be created for the local population. Additionally, job opportunities will open for more than 100 people to perform seasonal agricultural work.
