Politically Feasible Pro-poor Livestock Policies in Andhra Pradesh and Orissa States, India

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    The livestock sector has significant potential for improving the livelihoods of landless people and small and marginal farmers, who comprise the majority of India’s rural poor. However, resource and institutional constraints prevent poor producers from realizing the full potential of the animals they possess. Developing effective pro-poor livestock policies requires consideration of the political context and attention to the specific characteristics of poor livestock producers.
