LAHORE: Cattle trade between Pakistan and Netherlands restored after 11 years after a protocol agreement between the two governments.
The trade relaxation will provide Pakistan’s dairy sector a high standard Dutch cattle market, as the Netherlands are the cradle of the famous Holstein Friesian cow, and have perfected this healthy and fertile breed over the centuries. Dutch Holstein Frisian cows can produce at least 30,000 kg of milk in a lifetime. After the agreement, country’s local market can benefit from Netherlands quality feed, medicine and management skills to fulfil the complete genetic potential of these cows, tremendously raising the potential profitability of dairy farming in Pakistan.
