Letter No. 4249/FARD of the Government of Odisha of FARD Department of 28 March 2020 on the Supply of Cattle feed, Poultry feed, Fish feed and other Livestock feed.

This Letter of the Fisheries and Animal Resources Development Department observes that farmers are not able to purchase adequate quantities of cattle feed, poultry feed, fish feed and other livestock feed. Uninterrupted supply and distribution of livestock feed is of utmost importance for continuance of the production of essential commodities like meat, egg, milk and fish. Hence all retailers and shops dealing with cattle feed, poultry feed, pet feed, fish feed and other livestock feed should be allowed to operate. Further the grocery shops may also be allowed to market various livestock feed for easy public access. The necessary vehicle passes should be issued by the respective Urban Local Bodies/Chief District Veterinary Officers.
