Synopsis (short abstract) The FAO partnered with the Ethiopian Society of Animal Production (ESAP) to understand and document the various business models along the cattle dairy value chain nodes in Ada’a and Sululta districts. Dairy businesses are highly heterogeneous in Ethiopia and, even though most are profitable, milk production, marketing, service, input and other support are not well organized and integrated. Investments to make the dairy value chain more effective should target more institutional than the technical dimensions, which entails a novel approach for veterinary and animal production services.

    In Uganda, to satisfy the rapidly increasing demand of growing urban populations for animal source food (ASFs), livestock holdings and value chains in and around peri-urban and urban areas are transforming more rapidly than elsewhere in the country, exacerbating the potential negative impacts of livestock keeping on the environment and public health. In order to identify major public health hazards associated with the particularly rapidly expanding poultry value chain(s), we surveyed the poultry value chain actors in Wakiso and Mukono districts. We assessed their business practices and the extent to which they comply with recommended legislation on biosecurity and public health practices.

    In Kenya, to satisfy the rapidly increasing demand for animal source food (ASFs) of growing urbann populations, livestock holdings and value chains in and around peri-urban and urban areas are transforming more rapidly than elsewhere in the country, risking to exacerbate the negative impacts of livestock keeping on the environment and public health. The extent to which livestock-associated pathogens pose risks to public health is determined by the broader context in which livestock stakeholders operate and behave, both collectively and individually. Understanding stakeholders' behaviour as they perform various functions along the various livestock value chains is therefore crucial to inform, revise, and update policies. In order to identify major public health hazards associated with the particularly rapidly expanding poultry value chain(s), FAO, in collaboration with the veterinary service directorates of urban and peri-urban counties of Kiambu and Nairobi, surveyed the poultry value chain actors to assess their business practices and extent to which they comply with recommended biosecurity and public health practices.
