Senegal Plans New Pig Feed Factory in Ziguinchor
Senegal plans to launch a new feed factory in Ziguinchor, a main pig farming region in the country, near the Guinea-Bissau border.
The project will be implemented through the National Integrated Livestock Development Program (PNDIES), Senegal's Agriculture Ministry said, according to Senegalese Press Agency (APS).
Program coordinator Dr. Dame Sow said the new facility aims to improve feed access for farmers and will help boost local pig production.
“This modern infrastructure will support a sector that sustains hundreds of families in the region,” Sow said.
