| dc.description | The global trend of intensification of livestock production systemsto respond to the growing demand for livestock products is at its strongestin Asia. This process is characterized by multiple challenges, includingincreasing pressure on feed resources, the need to improve productivitywhile ensuring maintenance of biodiversity, consideration of naturalresource management, and improving preparedness for increased risksof zoonotic and other diseases. This has raised significant public policychallenges involving the marginalization of smallholder rural producers,minimization of environmental externalities, exploitation of livestock inreducing vulnerability, and enhanced preparedness for the increased risksof zoonotic and other diseases. Dealing with these challenges requiresconcerted and coordinated policy response, but the capacity to analyselivestock related trade-offs between social, environmental and economicobjectives and to design smart policies to balance conflicting interestsof different socio-economic groups is extremely limited in the region.This project aimed to enhance livestock sector policy formulation andimplementation capabilities in the region, and to better enable the sectorto make an effective contribution towards enhancing livelihoods,improving nutrition and promoting equitable economic growth. | |
