Sarawak: Sarawak aims to produce 60,000 cattle by 2030, in an effort to improve the state's self-sufficiency level (SSL) and food security. Sarawak Minister for Food Industry, Commodity and Regional Development, Datuk Seri Dr Stephen Rundi Utom, stated that currently, Sarawak's SSL for cattle is at 15 percent.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Dr. Rundi mentioned that Sarawak is on the right path toward achieving their target of 60,000 cattle by 2030. The Sarawak Economic Development Corporation (SEDC) operates a farm in Australia and a feedlot facility at Karabungan Farm. Additionally, the Sarawak Land Consolidation and Rehabilitation Authority (Salcra) is involved in livestock farming.

Dr. Rundi emphasized the need for more veterinarians in the state to address the shortage in this field. To tackle this issue, Sarawak plans to establish its own veterinary faculty in the Semenggok area in collaboration with Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). This initiative aims to produce 50 veterinary graduates annually to support the industry.
