The Fifth Livestock Project will: (i) consolidate and expand the progress made under previous livestock projects; (ii) initiate Bank-assisted efforts in the fields of artificial insemination, sheep and goat breeding for quality fibre production, animal health, village poultry production, and meat and mohair processing; and (iii) raise the incomes of producers, a large proportion of whom are small farmers below the relative poverty level in Turkey. It will provide credit for on-farm development, including dairy improvement, cattle breeding, sheep and goat improvement, and poultry production. Technical services and local and overseas training will be provided for all components.
