Demand for livestock commodities in developing economies will be met – the question is how
Scenario #1Meeting livestock demand byimporting livestock products
Scenario #2Meeting livestock demand by
importing livestock industrial production know-how
Scenario #3Meeting livestock demand by
transforming smallholder livestock systems
Replacing the 90% of locally produced animal commodities is not feasible
EconomicallyAfrica’s food import bill (2013): US $ 44 billion
About one fifth is livestock (highest after cereals):Meat: US $ 5 billion; Milk: US $ 4 billion Business as usual: the import bill sky rockets
Or for livelihoodsAlmost 1 billion rely on livestock for livelihoods and produce over 70% of the livestock products today43% of the agricultural workforce is female

Sustainable beef production
Animal welfare as a component
Environmental dimensions- Beef cattle produce over 2,500 million tonnes CO2 eq per
annum- Which is 41% of all livestock sector emissions- Emission intensity for beef is over 300kg C02 eq per kg of
protein- But there are big opportunities to mitigate emissions,
especially where intensities are currently highest (S.Asia, SSA, South America)
Sustainable beef consumption?- Debates over what is
‘appropriate’ consumption….
- Current recommendations 70-90g per capita per day
- For many millions a small amount of meat could make a significant contribution to a nutritious diet
ILRI/Susan Macmillan
Sustainable animal food systems are a must
• Productivity and efficiency:– Sufficient food with lower
environmental foot print: Animal health, genetics, feeding
• Animal source foods:– Safe, not wasted and consumed in
appropriate quantities
• Emerging challenges:– Zoonotic diseases– Anti-Microbial Resistance
•
Beef feeding the middle class: feeding the World?
• Understand drivers of demand
• Ensure animal welfare is addressed
• Address environmental sustainability
• Consider the role of beef in diets
• Ensure opportunities for positive impacts on livelihoods are not missed
