Official: Cows of Rasabah dairy farms died over feed shortage

DHAMMAR, April.9 (YPA) – A number of cows died in Rsabah Yemen’s dairy farms in the province of Dhamar due to the carelessness of concerned authorities and severe shortage of feed, an official source told Yemen Press Agency.

The Director of the Agriculture and Irrigation Office in the province, engineer Hilal al-Jarshari, wrote in his Facebook page, saying that a number of cows owned by Rsabah dairy farms were dying and starving to death due to lack of enough feed.

The official attributed the problem to the three-year-old blockade imposed by the Saudi-led coalition forces, which hindered the imports of the animals’ food.
