Local companies play a fundamental role in enhancing self-sufficiency in animal medicines and vaccines by increasing domestic production, transferring technology, localizing industry, and developing products that meet national needs. This strengthens the health and food security of livestock and reduces reliance on imports.
The Role of Local Companies in Enhancing Self-Sufficiency
- Increasing Domestic Production: Companies contribute to meeting the growing demand for animal medicines and vaccines by increasing their production capacity and expanding their production lines, thus reducing the need to rely on imports.
- Localizing Industry and Technology Transfer: Companies work to localize the veterinary vaccine and medicine industry through international partnerships to transfer the necessary technology and localize expertise and knowledge.
- Supporting Health and Food Security: Domestic production contributes to achieving health security for livestock, which positively impacts national food security by providing high-quality animal products at reasonable prices, according to The official website of the Presidency of the Republic states:
- Reducing the import bill: By producing local alternatives to veterinary medicines and preparations, companies contribute to saving hard currency and reducing the import bill.
- Opening new export markets: Producing high-quality, import-free products enhances the competitiveness of local companies in international markets and opens new export opportunities.
