The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority on Friday formally lifted cattle import restrictions for Pakistan.
In a statement, the Dutch Embassy spokesman said that both the countries agreed on a protocol to resume trade after 11 years.
The availability of world-class Dutch dairy cattle was a unique opportunity to Pakistan’s growing dairy sector, he said, adding that “the Netherlands are the cradle of the famous ‘Holstein Friesian’ cow and have perfected this healthy and fertile breed over the centuries.”
