    Ethiopia's "Reporter" reported on January 8 that at present, the construction progress of 8 new export -oriented slaughterhouses in Ethiopia has reached 50%, and the investment cost of each has exceeded 200 million birr
    .
    If all 8 slaughterhouses are put into operation, the market will become saturated, and the production capacity of Ethiopian meat can be doubled to an average of 200,000 tons per year
    .
    Shumet, director of export inspection and certification of slaughterhouses at the Ethiopian Ministry of Agriculture, said that in the past six months, Ethiopia has exported a total of 10,000 tons of processed meat products and 800 tons of feed, an increase of about 4,000 tons over the same period last year, generating revenue of US$50 million
    .
    Limited export destinations, smuggling of livestock across the border, and lack of high-quality pastures were the main factors contributing to the underperformance of meat exports
    .
    At present, Ethiopian meat products are mainly exported to Middle East countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and are actively exploring the Chinese and Malaysian markets through diplomatic channels and trade negotiations
