AFRICAN LIVESTOCK CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION (ALiCE2014)
 Livestock is a very important sector in Uganda and indeed
in the region as an agent of fighting poverty and
undernourishment
 The sector provides income for millions of household along
the value chain particularly to rural population
 The sector also provides all important nutrients to rural
population like eggs, milk, meat among others
 The sector can also be viewed as complementing crop
farming as the crop residue is used as animal feed and the
animals on the other hand provides manure

cannot be gainsaid
