Incentive for wool supply set at less than a dollar
The Government of Mongolia will grant monetary incentives to members of herder cooperatives and citizens with livestock when they supply wool of sheep and camel to national factories.

Moreover, a large number of wool and other raw material processing factories that have been newly built have increased their production of value-added wool products.
