According to experts, the livestock industry in the central province of Nghe An is moving in the right direction as gradually shifting from small and scattered farming to concentrated farming.

Livestock areas are step by step moved from the plains where the population density is high, to the mountainous areas which have low population density and high available land funds. The move also helps ensure economic development and limits the risk of negative impacts on the environment.

Differences have been made when the growth rate and production value of the Nghe An livestock industry have continuously increased over the years. Last year, it reached a growth of  5.76 per cent.

The proportion of livestock in net agriculture has increased significantly with 47.94 percent reported in 2021, making livestock the main production sector in the structure of the entire agricultural sector.

The high-tech application of animal husbandry, bio-safety breeding is expanded. Many large-scale farms are formed, creating high-value-added products and goods, for example, Masan, CP Vietnam, Thanh Do Co., Ltd. and Darby CJ Genetics Company.
