Kingdom’s first abattoir primed for Australian cattle
After a series of technical delays and setbacks, Cambodia’s first industrial slaughterhouse is ready to begin operations and will start production upon receiving its first shipment of 2,000 heads of live Australian cattle in late May, the company behind the project said on 19 April. Ross Ainsworth, former chief executive of the Northern Territory Livestock Exporters Association, said SLN’s decision to import Brahman cattle was a wise one, as this breed and its cross-breeds were the best suited for Cambodia’s tropical climate.
