ONLY when agriculture and production rise will locals have increased incomes, said Chair­man of the State Administration Council Prime Minister Senior General Min Aung Hlaing in in­specting the progress of agricul­tural and livestock farms in the Nyaunghnapin agriculture and livestock special zone yesterday afternoon.

At the meeting hall of the special zone, Yangon Region Chief Minister U Soe Thein and officials reported on a brief histo­ry of the special zone, agriculture and livestock farming tasks in sections of the zone, production and sale of vegetables, meat, milk and eggs, the accomplish­ment of the guidance of the Sen­ior General on his tour in June 2022, the average consumption of Yangon Region for meat and fish per month and year, repair­ing of roads in the zone, further implementation of the zone, and plans to reclaim livestock zones in Taikkyi and Twantay townships.
