dc.descriptionThe livestock sector in Bangladesh plays a significant role in employment, contributing to 14.5 percent of overall employment and over one-third of the agricultural sector's total employment. The Livestock and Dairy Development Project (LDDP), a $579 million initiative funded by the World Bank, aims to create employment opportunities, promote climate-smart practices, and enhance productivity for smallholder farmers. This study's primary goal is to estimate the LDDP's job creation potential using two approaches. The first involved a sample survey of 2045 samples across dairy, cattle, and poultry value chains, while the second employed a social accounting matrix (SAM) multiplier model to estimate national-level job creation. The study used the full-time equivalent (FTE) jobs method to measure job creation, revealing that 100 workers in livestock production create 63 FTE jobs, with unpaid family labor accounting for 46.7 percent, self-employment for 39.2 percent, and wage employment for 14.1 percent. Based on the data collected, the LDDP is expected to create 99,300 additional direct FTE jobs among beneficiary farms. Additionally, the SAM multiplier model indicates that LDDP’s investment in the livestock sector is projected to generate 164,000 additional jobs, with livestock farming activities creating the largest share.
