Specifically, it contributes directly to nutrition securitythrough the supply of milk, meat and eggs – high-qualitysources of protein and micronutrients. Livestock is also anindirect source of income (through aspects such asmanure, fertilizer and fuel) and is closely linked to thesocial and cultural lives of a millions of resource-poorfarmers, for whom animal ownership ensures varyingdegrees of sustainable farming and economic stability. In recent decades, animals (both livestock and wildlife)have moved freely between the countries bordering South Sudan in search of pasture, water and trade opportunities. Although Foot-and-Mouth disease (FMD) isendemic in South Sudan, this movement heightens of therisk of introduction and spread of the disease around thecountry. One notable outbreak of the disease occurred in2014/2015 in the country’s Lakes, Eastern and Central Equatoria states. Since its independence in 2011, South Sudan has lacked aproperly functioning veterinary service. Disease controlwithin the country has, until now, been overseen by Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) and United Nations agencies, without whose support the Government’s veterinary services are ineffective. -
