The Botswana beef is poised for dominance in the lucrative European Union market bolstered by the availability of sophisticated equipment used for testing chemical residuals in meat donated to the National Agricultural Research and Development Institute courtesy of the SADC-EU support. The equipment has been handed to Botswana through the EU-SADC Economic Partnership Agreement Support Programme which commenced three years back at the tune of P88 million value.
"We believe that with enhanced capacity for testing and quality assurance, Botswana will be better positioned to expand its exports, create the jobs, and drive economic growth. These ideals define our cooperation that has stood firm for more than 40 years," said Boutillier confident on Botswana growth.
Molao said the beef sector has traditionally played an important role in the lives and economy of Botswana, adding that Botswana has gone to great lengths to control diseases of cattle and ensure the safety and quality of the meat products for trade.
