Involuntary Resettlement

PRC: West Henan Agriculture Development Project
Resettlement Plan

The Weishi Integrated Feedlot and Beef Processing Project will be implemented by Weishi County and Weishi Integrated Feedlot and Beef Processing Company. Upon completion, the factory will be able to process 98000 cattle, produce prepared beef of 10000 tons, and intensively process non-staple food of 100 tons.

Fund sources of the project: Bright-moon Beef-processing Company invests 280,000,000 yuan, and Weishi Government invests 2,510,000 dollars (utilizing a loan from Asian Development Bank). Upon completion, the project can bring about output value of 3,000,000,000 yuan, revenue of over 300,000,000 yuan, and help consume grains and straws of 3,000,000 tons. It can directly employ 3,000 people and can give an impetus to cattle-raising in the area of Kaifeng and the eastern part of Henan. Farmers can increase their income by over 300,000,000 yuan through cattle-raising.

The proposed project site will permanently acquire a total of 510 mu lands in Xiaoying Village in Zhuangyou Town, Weishi County. The land acquisition will affect 201 families (i.e. 808 persons), and all the persons are the villagers of Xiaoying Village, Zhuangtou Town.
