Overview
This project aimed to improve strategic value chains to significantly and equitably benefit the rural poor, particularly women, living in the Punjab and Sindh.
This project was part of the DFAT-funded Agriculture Value Chain Collaborative Research program (AVCCR) which identified goat meat value chains within Pakistan as a high priority for further research. The AVCCR targets strategic value chains impacting smallholder livelihoods and focuses on social equity and the empowerment of women as fundamentals to development.
The scope of this project was to more fully describe the goat industry, including production and marketing systems, and identify future research for development needs throughout the value chain that aligns with the core goals of the AVCCR Program.
