This document discusses the role of livestock in food security and sustainable development. It makes several key points: 1) Food security depends on availability, access, safety, and stability of food supply. Livestock is a major source of food security, providing 60% of dietary protein and nutrients globally. 2) Livestock also contributes to income and employment through associated industries. Nearly 27% of total agricultural output comes from livestock. 3) Pakistan has a large livestock population of over 190 million heads that is growing faster than the human population. It has potential to be a global hub for supplying halal meat and products to meet the growing $2.5 trillion global halal market. 4) Efficient

integrated natural resources management, environment, and trade
• Enough food availability not sufficient but adequate distribution of
“safe food”
• Livestock production is paramount to culminate rural poverty and
food insecurity– in the global context
• Efficient production & value addition of livestock products can boost
Global Halal Economy
• Pakistan can be a Halal Hub to provide raw material for Halal
products industry
