Why Livestock Master Plans (LMPs)?
• Chronic under-investment in the livestock sector
• Agriculture or Livestock Ministers lack an evidence base (ROIs or returns
on investment) to obtain financial resources for livestock development
• A need for stronger human capacity for quantitative livestock sector
planning to inform decision making
• Effective livestock development requires sector analysis to understand the
current situation, with predictive analysis needed to set long-term
strategies and design action plans
• Governments need realistic action plans to meet targets in five-year
national economic development plans
Future steps
• Finalizing value chain and multi market models to enhance
foresight and investment analysis.
• Engage in upcoming LMPs: The Gambia, Odisha (India),
Nepal, Kenya, and Guinea.
