ILRI and CGIAR contributions to the SDGs
ILRI’s mission is
to improve food and nutritional security
and to reduce poverty in developing countries through
research for
efficient, safe and sustainable
use of livestock —
ensuring better lives through livestock.
4. ILRI Resources
• Staff: 630+
• $ 82 million
• 130 scientists from over 30
countries
• One third of ILRIU staff are women
• Large campuses in Kenya and
Ethiopia
• Regional or country office in 14
countries
5. Main campuses: Nairobi, Kenya and
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Offices in 14 other countries
ILRI around the world
12. Livestock build global and national economies
• The livestock sector contributes an
average of 40% of the agricultural
GDP globally — and that percentage
is growing
• Demand for milk and meat in Asia
will more than double by 2050 from
2010 levels
• Livestock value chains provide
large numbers of jobs.

15. Livestock provide livelihoods
• 70% of the world’s rural poor rely on livestock
for important parts of their livelihoods.
• Of the >750 million poor livestock keepers in
the world, about two-thirds are rural women.
• >100 million landless people keep livestock.
• In the poorest countries, livestock manure
comprises over 70% of soil fertility
amendments.
• Many poor people are employed in local
informal livestock product markets.
• 90% of animal products are produced and
consumed in the same country or region.
• Over 70% of livestock products are sold
‘informally’.

18. Animal-source foods provide essential nutrients
• Globally 13% of calories
and 28% of protein
• Vitamins
e.g. B12 only available
in animal-source foods
• Minerals
e.g. calcium, iron, zinc, iodine
• Consuming just one egg a day
for 6 months reduces stunting
in children
19. Unlucky 13 zoonoses sicken 2.4 billion people, kill 2.2 million people
and affect more than 1 in 7 livestock each year
Livestock and other animals are a source of
(zoonotic) diseases transmitted to humans
21. Production of the greenhouse gas methane
falls as animal productivity rises
22. Rangelands are a vast carbon sink
Rangelands, covering up to 40% of the Earth’s surface,
comprise a vast carbon sink
With moderate livestock grazing and good management,
rangelands could sequester 8.6 million tonnes of carbon
each year
24. Rural income multipliers are higher for livestock than for other commodities and
higher even than non-agricultural activities.

PATHWAY 1:
Economic Growth
25. PATHWAY 2:
Equitable livelihoods
There are nearly 200 million pastoralists in the world
generating income where conventional farming is
limited or not possible
Women are central to Vietnam pig value chains:
- Over half of the input suppliers, farmers and
processors are women
- Almost all the retailers are women
26. Worldwide livestock anti-
microbial consumption is
expected to rise 67%
between 2010 and 2030.
Vaccines can have economic
benefits and lower anti-microbial
drug use.
Brucellosis vaccination in
Mongolia would produce benefits
three times the cost of deployment.
PATHWAY 3:
Nutrition and health
27. New technologies in animal nutrition,
breeding and health led to a
63% reduction in the total
carbon footprint per unit of milk
in the US over a 60-year period.
Similar feasible improvements
in animal feeds, health and husbandry
in South Asia are expected to reduce
mixed dairy farming greenhouse
gas emissions by 38%.
PATHWAY 4:
Ecosystem health
30. Key areas of livestock and SDGs
• Feed and forage management
• Animal breeding and genetics
• Food safety, One Health and antimicrobial resistance (AMR)
• Value chain and market linkages
• Improving access to credit and saving mechanism
• Technical assistance and capacity building for livestock
keepers
• Climate change mitigation/adaptation, environmental
sustainability and sufficient land use
• Promotion of gender equality
• Government capacity building

Backyard - any farm or household raising at least one head of animal and does not qualify as a commercial farm.
Commercial - if it satisfies at least one of the following conditions:
a) at least 21 heads of adults and zero young
b) at least 41 heads of young animals
c) at least 10 heads of adults and 22 heads of young.
