Gambia - Livestock Development Study

The present intervention concerns the Livestock Development Study. It should investigate production, processing and marketing aspects of the livestock subsector and examine the livestock sub-sector policy and institutional framework. This should identify development gaps and hence investment opportunities, leading to defining areas of intervention and preparing two projects in detail. The projects envisaged to emanate from the study (aimed at improving the productivity of the sub-sector in a sustainable manner) should contribute to arresting the degradation of the environment as well as to the diversification of the economic base. The study consists of two phases, namely: (i) Review and Diagnostic Analysis and (ii) Detailed Feasibility and Project Design.
