Eight livestock congresses were held between 1968-2000 under the Turkish Veterinary Medical Association (TVMA) leadership to improve animal husbandry in Türkiye. In these congresses, besides problems in the livestock sector, issues related to the production and consumption of animal products were also discussed. The aim was for the organizers and participants to be composed of different fields related to animal husbandry and thus address the issue from every perspective. The establishment of an autonomous "Ministry of Livestock" was demanded in all congresses. Problems and solution proposals regarding animal husbandry in Türkiye were scientifically discussed with veterinarians, producers, industrialists, consumers, and government representatives. As a result, this study, which was carried out to evaluate the issues addressed in Türkiye Livestock Congresses and contribute to the determination of the problems and solutions of the livestock sector, can shed light on the resolution of today's livestock problems.
