    The livestock sector is one of the fastest-growing subsectors in agriculture. Its development has greatly contributed to economic growth and poverty reduction in Southeast Asia. At the same time, the unprecedented increase in emerging and re-emerging animal diseases has had a profound impact on animal productivity and production in the region and on the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. This publication reports on the outcome of a conference on the environmental animal health management initi ative (EAHMI) for enhanced smallholder production in Southeast Asia convened in Makati City, Philippines from 18 to 19 September 2014. The conference included a plenary session, five technical sessions and a poster gallery exhibit to showcase best practices and lessons learned in use of environmental animal health management strategies in the region and the way forward.

    This is the 37th of a series of Working Papers prepared for the Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative (PPLPI). The purpose of these papers is to explore issues related to livestock development in the context of poverty alleviation. Livestock is vital to the economies of many developing countries. Animals are a source of food, more specifically protein for human diets, income, employment and possibly foreign exchange. For low income producers, livestock can serve as a store of wealth, provide drau ght power and organic fertiliser for crop production and a means of transport. Consumption of livestock and livestock products in developing countries, though starting from a low base, is growing rapidly.
