Kazakhstan's lawmakers have approved in a first reading a bill to raise pay for rural veterinarians and widen their social support, Kazinform reports.
The bill aims at a comprehensive renewal of the veterinary sector, improving working conditions for specialists in villages.
Why it matters: vets are the front line for livestock health and food safety in a farming country, and rural posts are hard to fill. Better pay and support is how Kazakhstan keeps vets in the villages where the animals, and the livelihoods, actually are.
