Also in attendance were CEO Servulo Baeza and officials from the Ministry, Chief Robert Pan and Specialist Benjamin Ma of the Taiwan Technical Mission in Belize.
The barn is a key component of the extension of "Breeding Sheep and Goat Production and Guidance System Enhancement Project (Sheep and Goat Project Phase II)" co-implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Security and Enterprise and the Taiwan Technical Mission in Belize.
The project is expected to benefit farmers in the northern part of the country with convenient access to good quality breeding sheep and goat as well as technical support. The main objective of the Project is to further strengthen Belize’s sheep and goat industry and enhance market penetration to improve farmers’ livelihood.
Taiwan is committed to working with the Government of Belize for the sustainable agricultural development of Belize.
