Preparedness and Response Effectiveness

More Effective Strategies Reasons Livestock diversificationResponsive to environmentIncreases productivity of environmentEnsures access to key resources in time of shortagePreventativeReduces impact of hazards Livestock vaccination & treatmentGrazing reservesFeed production and storage Water harvesting & managementLess Effective Strategies ReasonsKilling calves Short time, uneconomical strategy Loss of assets Low incomes - unaffordable Risk of instability and conflict Leads to poor health and malnutritionForced sell of livestock Stress migrationReducing meals

Resource Access and Control Women control dairy products but men control the livestockWomen manage incomes from dairy productsKey resources like pasture and water are controlled by GOMarkets: brokers/traders- not trusted but have greater control; impacted by conflictWomen & primary producers have restricted access to marketsDairy cooperatives/processing groups do not trust primary milk producers
