Buyers of cattle are almost non-existent in villages in Magway Township

In villages in Magway Township, there are almost no buyers of cattle, according to local cattle traders. It is said that buyers have not been coming to the villages to purchase cattle since around last summer. It is said that calves for raising as domestic animals are traded between villages. However, U Soe Tint, a cattle trader from Ai Gyi Gone village in Magway Township, said that large draft cattle and cattle of other sizes are not being traded because buyers are not coming to the villages. Previously, buyers regularly came to the villages to purchase cattle, and locals also went to cattle markets to sell them. However, currently, not only are buyers not coming to the villages, but locals are also not going to the cattle markets due to difficulties in transportation. It is known that farmers in Magway Township are engaged in farming, as well as raising cattle, goats, pigs, and CP chickens as side businesses.
