PUL-I-KHUMRI (Pajhwok): Producers of vegetable oils in northern Baghlan province say that most of flaxseed oil factories in the province had to be closed due to the shortage of raw materials.
Salahuddin Jabbarzada, head of a flaxseed oil factory in Pul-i-Khumri, the provincial capital, told Pajhwok Afghan News that a few months ago, they produced thousands of liters of oil a day, but now they produced a few hundred kilograms.
"There were previously 20 factories here but now only three are left due to shortage of materials, these factories also face shortage of materials," he said . . .
