Introduction • Livestock’s potential to improve livelihoods of the rural poor depends on complex economic linkages and behavior. • In recognition of this, a special research component of PPLPI is dedicated to elucidating the economic fundamentals of smallholder livestock production. • The goal of this work is support more effective pro-poor policies at all levels.

2. Livestock and Rural Poor Livelihoods • With the benefit of improved sector data and detailed microeconomic surveys, we are seeing again and again the importance of livestock to smallholder livelihoods. • The challenge before us is to translate livestock dependence into a sustained source of income growth. • In most of the cases examined so far, improving the terms for smallholder participation in food markets offers the best means of doing this.

Microeconomic Fundamentals There are three ways to improve the balance sheets of farmers: 1. Increase output 3. Reduce Cost 2. Increase price A Living from Livestock IPALP 10 Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative Otte, Roland-Holst, & Kazybayeva

3. Smallholders and the Food Supply • In most developing countries, the majority of rural income arises from marketing food products. • Livestock’s contribution to this income depends on complex market supply chains extending from the farm gate to urban and even foreign households. • Our research on these linkages indicates that the terms of this market participation are far from achieving their potential to help the rural poor.

Linkage Analysis with SAMs • Multiplier analysis with Social Accounting Matrices (SAMs) offers a convenient way to examine livestock’s linkages across the economy. • To date, we have developed five SAMs for Vietnam and three for Senegal, working with different aggregations to look at a variety of income-expenditure linkages.

Policy Simulation • Using simulation models, we can assess a wide variety of policies ex ante . • Because we develop these models with consistent macro-micro datasets, we can evaluate economywide linkages and detailed incidence such as poverty alleviation. • Here we look at two generic kinds of scenarios: • Policies targeted to improve livestock production • Policies to improve market access A Living from Livestock IPALP 17 Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative Otte, Roland-Holst, & Kazybayeva

4. HPAI – Challenge and Opportunity from a Major Animal Disease Risk • Pathogens associated with livestock pose a challenge to public health and economic security at the national and global levels. • A dramatic recent example of this is Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, which has potentially momentous consequences for human society. • Smallholder livestock producers can be seriously threatened by conventional measures to fight diseases like this. • On the contrary, we believe disease risk management can be an opportunity to improve their circumstances. A Living from Livestock IPALP 19 Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative Otte, Roland-Holst, & Kazybayeva

Risk Management from a Development Perspective • HPAI presents an unusual opportunity for international cooperation because poor rural households can contribute the global commons of disease prevention. • Their participation in this effort is unlikely to be voluntary, and indeed should be rewarded if success is to be achieved. • To make such policies effective, economic analysis of incentives and localized design and implementation are needed.
