As part of the government's support for livestock owners in the country, and in line with the joint initiatives of the Ministry of Municipality, Ministry of Commerce & Industry and Widam Food, to encourage local sheep production, local sheep raisers and owners have started supplying their sheep to Widam to be marketed throughout the holy month of Ramadan. The initiative for this year was first announced at the start of February as registration started as part of the national initiative to encourage local production and subsidise sheep meat for Ramadan. Accordingly, livestock and barn owners registered for this at the Ministry of Municipality.
