About Us

CattleSales is an open international community of farmers, veterinarians, and breeders of cattle and small livestock. We are building a unified knowledge base on animal breeds and a convenient marketplace where deals happen directly — without intermediaries or commissions.

Why we do this

The idea for CattleSales was born in 2024 in Bishkek. We saw farmers in Kyrgyzstan and neighboring republics lose time and money: some couldn’t find a rare breed, while others spent months looking for a buyer for breeding stock. Between them were dozens of messenger chats, bazaars, and ads in local newspapers. Information was scattered, language barriers made trade with neighbors difficult, and newcomers had no reliable source of data on breeds and vaccination.

Our mission is to make trade and knowledge sharing easier for farmers in Kyrgyzstan, the CIS, and worldwide. We are building not just a classifieds board, but a shared space where sellers, buyers, veterinarians, and livestock specialists meet.

What's inside

Marketplace

Listings for cows, bulls, sheep, goats, horses, camels, chickens, pigs, ponies — as well as feed, equipment, and veterinary services. Posting ads is completely free: no sales commission, no hidden fees.

Breed wiki

1408 breeds with descriptions of characteristics, productivity, region of origin, and photos. The database is open for editing: every farmer can уточнить characteristics or add a new breed that is not in the system. All edits are moderated.

Veterinary Module

A list of diseases, vaccines, and vaccination schedules. Helps farmers protect their herd and show buyers a transparent medical history for each animal.

AI Translations

Breed and listing descriptions are automatically translated into 43 languages — from Russian, English, and Chinese to Kyrgyz, Uzbek, Mongolian, and Amharic. A farmer in Ethiopia can read the profile of the Kyrgyz Alatau breed in their native language.

Openness and Community

CattleSales is not a closed startup. We believe the livestock knowledge base should belong to the community. Any farmer can add a breed, fix an error in a description, upload a photo, or share experience in the comments. Our moderation team reviews edits but does not censor opinions.

Global Visibility

We intentionally build for a global audience. The platform supports cross-country visibility: global sellers (exporting countries — the USA, Switzerland, the Netherlands) see the Central Asian local market, while Kyrgyz, Kazakh, and Uzbek farmers see the global selection. Listings from neighboring countries are always shown first — reflecting long-established trade ties: Kyrgyzstan with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, Armenia with Georgia, Serbia with Bulgaria.

Team

We have been working from Bishkek since 2024. A small team — developers, farmer consultants, and translators. No investors, no outside advertisers. The project is self-funded and remains completely free for users.

Join Us

If you have a herd, post a listing. If you’re a veterinarian, add a profile and share your expertise. If you’re a breeder, update the breed profile you work with. If you’re a hobby farmer, ask questions and read your colleagues’ experience.
