Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ During its regular meeting on March 29, Wednesday, the Cabinet resolved to issue hay and fodder to some aimags; and ordered corresponding Ministers to allocate the required money from Government reserve fund, and see to the implementation of the resolution.

Presently, a considerable amount of snow cover remains on the territory of Mongolia, leading to a difficult spring in 127 soums of 15 aimags.
