Dhaka :
Minister for Fisheries and Livestock Agriculture Mohammed Amin Ur Rashid today said that scientists play a vital role in advancing the country’s livestock sector through research and innovation, and assured that their inventions and research achievements would receive proper recognition and evaluation must be ensured.
Scientists dedicate their intellect, time, effort, and devotion to developing new technologies and generating knowledge. If these contributions are not duly recognized, interest in research may decline in the future, he said.
The minister made the remarks while presiding over the 49th meeting of the Board of Governors of the Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI), held this morning at the conference room of the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock. He chaired the meeting as Chairman of the Board.
Highlighting the importance of research, the minister said there is no alternative to scientific research for increasing productivity, preventing diseases, developing improved breeds, ensuring the production of safe animal protein, and enhancing the export potential of the livestock sector. He emphasized the need to make research activities more effective and practical so that their benefits directly reach farmers and entrepreneurs. He also stressed the importance of rapidly disseminating newly developed technologies at the field level.
The livestock sector has reached its current position largely due to the long-standing and tireless efforts of our researchers, he said, adding that the government would continue providing the necessary support to make research institutions more effective, modern, and responsive to emerging challenges. The Minister further underscored the need to expand incentives and recognition opportunities for scientists in order to encourage innovative and impactful research. The meeting reviewed various administrative, financial, and research-related matters of BLRI and provided necessary directives to further strengthen and enhance the effectiveness of the institute’s activities.
