Tanzania Livestock Master Plan Technical Advisory Committee Meeting, Colosseum Hotel Dar Es

Salaam, 23rd June 2016 NOT FOR CITATION

Process of Developing a Livestock Sector Analysis (LSA) & Livestock Master Plan

(LMP) Creating a LSA & LMP requires a long-term

“quantitative sector” analysis but “stakeholder” involvement is essential

Dynamic herd and sector models are built to do the 15 year livestock sector analysis (LSA) – baseline, projections and foresight analysis

The LMP process is quantitative, but consultative. Tanzanian livestock specialists have provided data and parameters on animal productivity, and cross-cutting issues (genetics, health and feed)

Stakeholders (NBS and MALF) have helped create a national data base and model baselines

The Technical Advisory Committee is guiding the process. It is making technical input and helping ensure the results are useful, realistic and relevant

LMP Formulation Process

LSIPT – Livestock Sector Investment and Policy Toolkit

(i)Preparation modules (M1 & M2)

(ii)Diagnostic Modules (M3 & M4)

(iii)Planning and Monitoring (M5 & M6) We are now in the “Diagnostic” Stage” and going to share with you the first baseline results

Livestock Production ZonesThere are Three Livestock production zones namely;

(i)Central (Arid and Semi-Arid)(ii)Coastal and Lake (High rainfall and Humidity)(iii)Highlands (High rainfall and low humidity

Criteria for typology were altitude, rainfall and humidity patterns
