The program will target key livestock systems of smallholder producers in selected provinces and districts through three main components: animal disease control, livestock production systems and program management. While national in scope, the program will place a strong focus on districts experiencing a high incidence of endemic livestock diseases, thereby reducing poverty for nearly 213,000 smallholders.
