Amadou Allahoury Diallo HLPE Steering Committee 09 May 2016, 7th Multi-Stakeholder Partnership Meeting of the GASL -Addis Ababa. Livestock is a: driver of land use and cereal and oilseed consumption powerful engine and a key driver for sustainable agriculture and food system development good illustration to explore possible pathways to SAD sector that has often not received the balanced attention it deserves concerning SAD for FSN Many challenges for SAD are related or depend on the evolution of the livestock sector Why a focus on livestock? Outline of the Report Sustainable Agricultural Development for Food Security and Nutrition: approach and conceptual framework Trends and drivers of agricultural development Sustainability challenges for livestock in agricultural development Pathways towards SAD focusing on livestock Recommendations SAD for FSN : approach and conceptual framework What is “SAD for FSN” Sustainable agricultural development is agricultural development that contributes to improving resource efficiency, strengthening resilience and securing social equity/responsibility of agriculture and food systems in order to ensure food security and nutrition for all, now and in the future. Agricultural Development in relation to FSN Agricultural development (AD) is key to FSN (availability, access, utilization and stability) Sustainable Agricultural development for FSN (impact on water availability and quality, soil degradation, air quality, GHG emissions, climate change, ecosystems, biodiversity…) Conceptual framework Key roles of the livestock sector Livestock production is central to food system development : around 1/3 of global agricultural gross production value Livestock makes a huge positive contribution to livelihoods and nutrition : in 2010, animal source food contributed to 16 % of total calories and 31 % of protein globally Livestock is integral to livelihoods, cultural identity and traditional practices Livestock has both major positive and negative effects on the environment Typology of farming systems Smallholder mixed farming systems Pastoral systems Commercial grazing systems Intensive livestock systems (Constantly evolving and in many countries there is a mix of systems) Trends and drivers of AD Given current trends, to meet food demand by 2050 : Global agricultural production is expected to increase by 60 % in volume Global meat production could increase by 76 % and milk production by 62% (This increase in livestock production will occur mostly in developing countries) Main drivers of AD Demographic changes Economic growth Urbanization Changing dietary preferences and patterns Sustainability challenges for livestock in AD: cross-cutting global challenges FSN challenges (triple burden : Hunger, micronutrients deficiency, increasing overnutrion) Environmental
