Venezuela has initiated a public consultation process to establish the Law for the Promotion, Development, and Protection of Livestock Activities. The proposed regulatory framework seeks to enhance national food sovereignty by addressing the specific needs of the productive sector.

In Apure, officials announced the consultation following meetings with local producers. The initiative aims to provide legal and personal security for production units, promote livestock exports, and improve access to financing for technological and herd growth. In Guárico, legislative discussions have focused on animal health, disease prevention, technical training, infrastructure, and the prevention of livestock theft to ensure the sustainability of the national system.
