Workshop on Development and African Pastoral Livestock Production Held at Marriottsville, Maryland, November 1981

摘要

The workshop reported here brought together some 40 specialists to help formulate an A.I.D. strategy for livestock development in arid and semi-arid Africa. The following problems constraining livestock development in Africa are identified: inappropriate government policies; poor institutional capacity; inadequate technical knowledge; and paucity of animal feed and veterinary services. Next, a general livestock development strategy to address these problems is formulated.
