A number of dairy farmers in Herat province report facing a severe economic crisis due to a significant increase in operational costs. They strongly criticize the lack of support from the Taliban government and other agricultural support organizations.
According to these local farmers, the prices of essential animal feed, such as straw and bran, have skyrocketed recently. Meanwhile, they are forced to sell their dairy products at extremely low prices, leaving them with no profit margins.
The continuation of this dire situation threatens to shut down many dairy farms in the region. Farmers warn that if the Taliban government does not address their challenges, this vital local industry will soon collapse completely.
