Next, the Chief Minister and party inspected the Kan Gyi Kone Reservoir, examining water storage levels, outlet pipes, overflow mechanisms, and the structural integrity of the bridges over the overflow canals.

They also observed how water from the reservoir is pumped using solar-powered pumps to a 10,000-gallon overhead tank and a 10,000-gallon underground tank within the breeding zone, and assessed the ongoing operations to distribute water from these tanks to livestock farms throughout the zone.

Furthermore, the Chief Minister and officials inspected the livestock farms within the Twantay Breeding Zone, which include pig, dairy cow, layer chicken, and quail farms, as well as the construction status of a feed processing factory.
