Title Mutton Production in Lhasa City
Type Expansion of sheep husbandry
Description
Intensive fattening and artificial insemination technology will be adopted for sheep husbandry in the suburban area of Lhasa city, Tibet. Artificial pasture of 12 ha. will be developed for production of hay for feed production, which will be treated with lime and ammoniation to improve nutrient utilization. Relevant facilities will be established such as a green house for sheltering sheep during the winter months.
Rationale
As the living standard in Lhasa city steadily increases, so has the demand for meat in the diets of its citizens. The increased demand has exceeded the meat production capacity in the area. This project will improve pasturing technology and build a sheep raising base around Lhasa city. Natural and newly developed areas in the outskirts of Lhasa city will be reasonably and sustainably utilized for both forage production and pasturing. This will meet the demand for meat, promote development of the local husbandry economy, and improve Tibetan living standards.
