Book (stand-alone)Practical recommendations for donors to improve the enabling environment and increase sustainable investments in the dairy value chain in Ethiopia 2024
Also available in:
No results found.This policy note aims at providing practical and evidence-based recommendations to improve the enabling environment and subsequently increase sustainable investments in the whole dairy value chain (VC) in Ethiopia. The relevance of this policy note relies on the fact that to date, there are multiple assessment and studies that have been conducted on the VC but – to the authors' knowledge – no study has yet attempted to study the linkages between the challenges as well as to determine which challenges faced by VC actors are effectively enabling environment factors. In other words, building from these multiple studies and some specific studies, this note aims at going one step further by mapping the different challenges found in the VC assessments, as several of them are closely intertwined (like land size affecting both feeding and effective cattle management), as well as determining at what scale the challenges impact the VC. For instance, some factors have a national level impact (i.e. they are a national enabling environment factor, affecting most or all VC actors), others have a regional level impact (i.e. a regional enabling environmental factor, affecting only the VC actors of a specific region), while others heavily depend on the individual characteristics of the VC actors. -

ProjectDevelop Quality Management Systems and Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) for Priority Value Chains - TCP/BOT/3904 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Agriculture is the main sector supporting poor rural households in Botswana. While commercialization of the agricultural sector is a key priority for the Government of Botswana, value chain actors need support to strengthen their capacities, improve the quality and safety of their products and increase diversification through value addition and access to markets. In this context, the project aimed to assist value chain actors to develop and implement Quality Management Systems (QMS), Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and Standard Codes of Practice to improve product quality management in agricultural enterprises and to therefore maximize market and production competitiveness of food and agricultural products at local, national and international levels. The main objective of the project was to help ensure that agricultural commodities meet certain standard requirements, which will ultimately improve and increase their production competitiveness, create decent jobs and employment opportunities and develop the potential for broad-based industrialization. The proposed activities of this project aimed to introduce technical solutions that were new to the beneficiaries and stakeholders including agricultural standards, innovative practices for wastewater use, improved knowledge for market access, and QMS.
