Livestock Value Chain Analysis – Farm to Fork

vethelplineindia.co.in/livestock-value-chain-analysis-farm-to/

The livestock value chain can be defined as the full range

of activities involving different people that are required to
bring a product (e.g. live animal, meat, milk, egg, day old
chick, feed, medicine, leather, fiber, manure) to final
consumers passing through the different phases of
production, processing and delivery.

It can also be defined as a market-focused collaboration

among different stakeholders who produce and market
value-added products.

Value chain analysis is essential to an understanding of

markets, their relationships, the participation of different
actors, and the critical constraints that limit the growth of
livestock production and consequently the competitiveness
of farmers. It is also important to note that networks and
linkages in value chains that link production systems, markets and consumers constitute a
contact network, which provides opportunities for the transmission of contagious diseases
within and between sectors.

At Vet Helpline India we conduct value chain analysis both to suggest ways for value
chain up-gradation and to assist government agencies for people centered risk based
control of animal diseases.
