The aim of the projects is to develop beekeeping, which has significant potential in the region, to increase the income levels of producers and create employment, to provide producers with beekeeping materials that allow them to engage in organic beekeeping economically, to diversify the products produced in organic beekeeping, to increase producers’ incomes, and to improve their marketing capabilities.

A significant portion of animal slaughter in the region still takes place in small and primitive slaughterhouses, with meat and meat products often being produced under conditions that are not hygienically or technologically adequate. Small-scale operations lack cooling units, preventing carcass maturation, creating challenges in preserving internal organs, and resulting in the underutilization of by-products. Additionally, carcasses, hides, and internal organs are transported in unsuitable vehicles.

Within the framework of the “Regulation on General and Special Hygiene Rules for Small-Capacity Slaughterhouses,” a modular slaughterhouse with a daily slaughter capacity of 8 large livestock or 24 small livestock has been established.

The project aims to improve shelter conditions to enhance animal welfare, prevent livestock productivity losses, produce healthy and high-quality animal products, facilitate access to water sources on pastures, prevent stress, disease, and productivity loss caused by sunlight in summer and rain in spring and autumn, and reduce overgrazing pressure on pastures through planned grazing.

With this project, in the province of Karaman, where livestock activities and movements are intensive, it is planned to establish a new livestock market in place of the existing and unhealthy market, within the framework of the “Regulation on Licensing and Inspection Procedures for Livestock Sales Places”, in order to ensure animal health and disease control and to develop the trade of livestock, meat, and milk.

Located in a central position, the district holds an important place in regional livestock trade relative to its scale. With 95,000 small ruminants and 47,000 large ruminants, Eskil is one of the significant livestock centers in the region.
