President U Min Aung Hlaing stated that a system to generate and utilize electricity from biogas by storing animal waste can be implemented to prevent environmental damage caused by livestock waste and to reduce electricity costs.

He made the above remarks on May 25, 2026, during an inspection tour of livestock farming operations being implemented in Nay Pyi Taw.

President U Min Aung Hlaing said, “Regarding dairy cattle farming, it is necessary to study the farming practices of foreign countries, as well as their feeding and waste management systems. To prevent environmental damage caused by livestock waste and to cut electricity expenses, a system can be implemented to store waste and generate electricity using biogas. In terms of feed production, Napier grass and locally produced corn can be mixed to make composite feed, or fermented into silage for feeding.”

Afterward, he visited poultry, dairy cattle, goat, and pig farms, and also inspected the distribution businesses of fresh rations, dried meat, and ready-to-eat pork curry packs.
