THE QUALITY OF LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS IS A KEY DEVELOPMENT FACTOR OF SPHERE
Introduction. Livestock development plays a crucial role in the overall agricultural sector of Uzbekistan. Livestock products, such as meat, milk, and eggs, contribute significantly to both domestic consumption and export markets. The quality of these livestock products is a key development factor in Uzbekistan. Improving the quality of livestock products is essential to meet consumer demands and compete in the international market. There are several factors that can contribute to improving the quality of livestock products in Uzbekistan. First, changes in the global market conditions present opportunities for livestock producers. Global trends of growth in commodity markets and increasing demand for high-quality food products create a favorable environment for Uzbekistan's livestock sector. Additionally, the increase in the value of land resources provides an incentive for livestock producers to invest in improved breeding and feeding practices, resulting in higher-quality products. Furthermore, the expansion of the agricultural market in neighboring countries creates a demand for quality livestock products that can be met by Uzbekistan. To capitalize on these opportunities, it is crucial to introduce more efficient business schemes and adopt modern technologies in livestock production. These factors, combined with policies aimed at enhancing farmers' access to market information and promoting output diversification, can contribute to the overall improvement of livestock product quality in Uzbekistan.
