Dairy farmers once again faced serious problems when shutting down various regions this year due to the implementation of measures to combat the pandemic. But is starting to unravel now that the area is open ...

Farmers could not properly sell the milk they produced. Many people got rid of unsold milk when they couldn't process it into other products, said Razafindraibe Haingotiana, national chairman of the Malagasy Dairy Board or MDB.

The lack of income created difficulties in raising the cow because it had an impact on the cow's diet, such as the lack of fodder agriculture, milk storage problems. Analamanga and Vakinankaratra were among the most affected, especially in Vakinankaratra, but this was not the case in other areas.
