Uganda’s Minister for Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries, Mr Vincent Ssempijja, has said that the government would be issuing birth certificates to cows and registering farmers henceforth
Ssempijja, while speaking at the official opening of the National Agricultural Show at the Source of the Nile grounds in Jinja on Tuesday, said the move was necessary, so ensure the traceability of their products and to enable them to benefit from the international market, reportsSsempijja said, “They want to know where the products are coming from; they have been impounding and banning all consignments from Uganda if they find one box with issues.
‘‘For cattle farmers, it is going to be worse. You will be registered as a farmer, the cow will be registered, numbered and will have a birth certificate because the importers of our products demand meat for cows aged between 15 to 24 months. So we are going to sell depending on their age,” he added.
