Nikos Christodoulides is planning new steps to address the crisis in the livestock sector, starting with compensation for farmers. The government aims for full compensation of those affected, including coverage of lost income until their livestock is replaced. Additionally, there will be imports of new animals from abroad and reassessment of existing livestock units. The strategy focuses on rebuilding the sector to turn the crisis into an opportunity. The state of the economy is a critical factor for the success of these efforts.
