Development and utilization of yak in Qinghai Plateau

Although all ethnic groups in western China have a long history and experience in slaughtering yaks, most of them are limited to small-scale traditional manual production. Backward technology, simple equipment, single variety, low output and small quantity are far from meeting the needs of market development. In recent years, although some small and medium-sized meat processing plants have been established, most of them are in the initial stage. Using traditional processing methods, there are difficulties such as low level, low efficiency, low output, lack of technicians, low scientific and technological content, and difficulty in introducing high and new technologies.

Therefore, it is imperative to develop yak products, nutrition and health products, fluff products and comprehensive utilization of yak resources with national, local and brand characteristics, carry out in-depth development and revitalize the national economy. Yak culture has a long history, extensive and profound, and is an important part of culture.
