Meeting on Mongolia’s Food Security Analyzes Shortcomings | Ubpost News

Meeting on Mongolia’s Food Security Analyzes Shortcomings | Ubpost News: "Kh.Battulga, Minister of Industry and Agriculture, opened a meeting which took place on the weekend with local food producers and importers with a statement on Mongolia’s lack of self-sufficiency. “A country with a population of around [almost] 1.4 billion is able to provide sufficient food material for its entire people and even export the leftovers. But I always found it strange that a country like ours, a country with vast land, more than 50 million live stocks and with a population of only around 3 million isn’t able to supply sufficient food material for its own people. This is disgraceful. I have come to meet all of you today to find a way to not be disgraceful.”"
