Iranian businessmen plan to build a poultry farm, a combined fodder factory and a livestock breeding complex, worth a total of $40 mln, in the Chelyabinsk Region in the Russian Urals by 2013, regional authorities said on Wednesday.
The construction of the facilities will begin this year, the press office of the regional agricultural ministry said following a meeting with Iranian businessmen to discuss the stages of the project’s implementation and the terms of investment.
“The region guarantees the support of investors through the provision of infrastructure and assistance in obtaining the necessary approvals at all stages of the project’s implementation,” the statement said.
