00:00Greetings to the valued followers of the International Association of Agricultural Cities.
00:04We are with Evi City Agriculture Agenda.
00:06We are with Mustafa Çarkaya, Deputy Director of Agriculture News at Anadolu Agency.
00:10Welcome, Mr. Mustafa.
00:12Nice to meet you, Mr. Mahmut Çalip. Greetings. Have a good broadcast everyone.
00:16We have a busy agricultural agenda.
00:19There were presidential statements regarding new support for the tradition of commemoration in Küçükbaşhanı.
00:24Let's start from here, if you'd like.
00:26Please, let's hear the details of the agricultural agenda from you, God willing.
00:30Of course, essentially, last year the Large Livestock Farming Rural Prosperity Livestock Support Project was implemented.
00:36As part of this project, cattle were given to producers.
00:40They were given with very favorable loan terms.
00:42Even the maintenance costs were covered for a while.
00:46As I had already mentioned on the first day, small livestock breeders also wanted this project.
00:52Because a similar project is seeking support.
00:54And it was being prepared for the project.
00:56Now, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced this at an iftar dinner with farmers on Saturday.
01:03It was a much-anticipated project.
01:05It was very well received by many sectors.
01:07Because if we're going to get straight to the details, let me first answer the most frequently asked question.
01:13Actually, for our viewers, applications will start in April.
01:17I can say that.
01:18So right now everyone is preparing their applications.
01:20Nobody should worry.
01:22Because I want to digress for a moment here.
01:24The other project also saw record-breaking application numbers.
01:29And everyone was saying things like, "We don't have any animals left," and so on.
01:33The other project will also have second, third, and fourth phases.
01:36Let's mention this as well, let's remind you of it.
01:38Applications open in April.
01:39A total of one hundred and fifty thousand small livestock animals will be distributed to producers.
01:43Therefore, each producer here will be given one hundred animals.
01:47Look, the critical point here is this:
01:50Ninety-five female and five male small livestock animals will be given.
01:55So what does ninety-five female animals mean?
01:56These sheep are already numerous; they give birth to lambs both on the anniversary and in large numbers.
02:02Now, when we look at the point here, we already have approximately fifty-six million head of small livestock.
02:09Those who say this will be given it, right?
02:10You said that these animals produce a lot of offspring, but it seems that TİGEM's animals are raised under more specialized conditions.
02:16Of course, I'll mention that too, but the important point here is this, Mr. Mahmut Halil.
02:23This troubleshooting support officer is crazy.
02:26So, providing ninety-five female animals is problematic.
02:29So, let this producer buy it and continue producing.
02:32Now, you send it back for three months, five months, five odd days of slaughter, then Eid al-Adha comes, you sell it, and it's over, that's not it.
02:36This experiment was conducted to ensure that this malfunction has an effect.
02:41Yes, on the other hand, this project is being carried out by TİGEM, and one of its most important aspects is this.
02:48TİGEM will provide you with an animal suitable for your region.
02:52So, as you know, there are also animal species suitable for different regions in Türkiye.
02:56It is suitable for the geographical conditions.
02:58According to him, an animal will be given.
03:00And when it comes to loans, there are no loans for two years.
03:04Interest-free financing is available with a repayment period of up to seven years.
03:08For a year...
03:09He'll start paying in two years, right Mustafa?
03:11Of course, yes. Up to two years grace period.
03:14Then, interest-free loans.
03:15When these animals give birth within two years,
03:18So, at least twice the amount of the loan will be earned, right?
03:23Both that and there's also this:
03:25Maintenance costs are also paid for a year.
03:27Maintenance support is also provided.
03:28So, the government is essentially saying, "You settle in the village, and I'll pay your salary, even if it's a small amount," right?
03:35Exactly. They also cover the insurance cost for one year.
03:38I'm saying it makes you want to be a farmer.
03:40Everything is ready now.
03:41All we need right now is a farmer, a place to raise small livestock, and a producer.
03:48All other conditions have been met.
03:50As I said, this project is actually very valuable.
03:52Because it's a project aimed at meeting the country's supply needs.
03:55This point needs to be emphasized repeatedly.
03:56So let's get through today.
03:59It's not a matter of immediately giving small businesses fifty animals and letting them continue operating.
04:03This is a very well-thought-out project.
04:05Our small livestock population in Türkiye may increase.
04:08Of course, cattle are more valuable in terms of red meat supply.
04:11But this small livestock population is also something the farmer can do so quickly.
04:17Therefore, I say may it bring good fortune and prosperity to our precious country.
04:22Now it's all about wheat and sheep, the rest is just a game.
04:24Thank you for watching.
04:24Thank you for watching.
