| description |
About 60 percent of rural households in
developing countries are estimated to fully or partly depend
on livestock for their livelihoods. Available household
level livestock data, however, are insufficient to
appreciate the contribution of livestock to household
livelihoods, including both the monetary and non-monetary
benefits provided by farm animals. This challenges the
design and implementation of effective investments in the
sector. This paper presents a livestock module for
multi-topic household surveys, which targets improved
livestock-related questions therein. The livestock module
for multi-topic household surveys has been jointly
elaborated by the FAO, the ILRI (International Livestock
Research Institute) and the World Bank, as part of the
Livestock Data for Better Policies in Africa Project. It
consists of a core set of questions, which quantify both
livestock herd and the various contributions of farm animals
to household livelihoods, including cash income, food,
manure, draft power and hauling services, savings and
insurance and social capital. It then includes additional
detailed questions on livestock characteristics (e.g.
breeding, branding, etc.), husbandry practices (e.g.
feeding, watering, etc.) and outputs (e.g. milk, dung, etc.)
which, depending on the country, may or may not be included
in multi-topic household surveys. The module is a public
good, which has been used to develop multi-topic household
questionnaires in collaboration with country governments in
Niger, Tanzania and Uganda. Data from these surveys will be
freely available for analysis in 2012 and 2013, providing an
unprecedented opportunity to enhance the understanding of
the livestock poverty-wellbeing linkages at the household level. |
