Children’s work in the livestock sector: Herding and beyond
|
|
| Agriculture is by far the largest sector where child labour is found and one of the most dangerous in terms
of fatalities, accidents and occupational diseases. Almost 60 percent of girls and boys (aged 5–17 years) in
hazardous work are found in agriculture, historically and traditionally an under-regulated sector and one in
which regulation enforcement is also difficult in many countries. Livestock forms a considerable (...) |

Asian livestock. Challenges, opportunities and the response. Proceedings of an international policy forum held in Bangkok, Thailand, 16-17 August 2012
|
|
| Growing populations, rising disposable incomes and progressive urbanization in Asia and the Pacific region have spurred rapid growth in the consumption of animal source foods. The region has generated more than half the gains in global livestock production since the early 1990s and this growth is expected to continue in the foreseeable future. However, the manner of supply growth has also imposed considerable social, health (...) |

Six-legged livestock: Edible insect farming, collection and marketing in Thailand
|
|
| The world's population is expected to surpass 9 billion by 2050. FAO estimates that global food production will need to expand by an estimated 60 percent from current levels. Meeting this massive additional demand will require concerted action on a number of fronts, including efforts to increase the production and consumption of currently under-utilized and under-appreciated foods. Edible insects compromise one such category. (...) |

Understanding and integrating gender issues into livestock projects and programmes A checklist for practitioners
|
|
| In rural societies, where local culture and traditions are still very vibrant, responsibilities and
tasks are often assigned to women and men on the basis of traditional gender roles, defined
as those behaviours and responsibilities that a society considers appropriate for men, women,
boys and girls. These roles change over time, have different characteristics in every local context
and are shaped by ideological, religious, (...) |

Livestock sector development for poverty reduction: an economic and policy perspective Livestock’s many virtues
|
|
| Livestock contribute to the livelihoods of an estimated 70 percent of the world’s rural poor. The increasing demand for animal protein in low- and middle-income countries provides an opportunity for the poor to improve their livelihoods. However, the nature of livestock farming and marketing of livestock and their products is determined by policy and institutional frameworks that rarely favour the poor. Launched in 2001 by (...) |

How can animal health systems support small-scale poultry producers and traders? Reflections on experience with HPAI.
|
|
| This paper builds on lessons learned from the world’s reaction to HPAI in order to identify ways in which animal health systems may better include smallholders in disease monitoring, surveillance and control activities both in “peace time” and in emergency situations. It argues that only by fully engaging poultry keepers can the negative impacts of disease be reduced. However, this is not a trivial enterprise and
calls for (...) |

Balanced feeding for improving livestock productivity - Increase in milk production and nutrient use efficiency and decrease in methane emission
|
|
| In developing countries feed shortages notwithstanding, considerable potential exists to increase production levels across a range of growing, lactating and beef animals by addressing the problem of imbalanced nutrition. The data on improving milk production efficiency in dairy animals through balanced feeding suggests that there is considerable scope for enhancing milk production with strategic use of the existing feed (...) |

Biofuel co-products as livestock feed - Opportunities and challenges
|
|
| Climate change and predicted shortages of fossil fuels present major challenges. Currently, biofuel production is from agricultural crops grown primarily on arable land. Conflict with the traditional use of arable land, itself a limited resource, to produce food and animal feed must be avoided and economic sustainability assured. At present cereals, especially maize and wheat, and sugar cane are used for ethanol production, (...) |
