Animal Feed Development Strategy

The Makueni County animal feed strategy is informed by the livestock feed balance analysis and inventory derived from the national feed inventory of 2019. The inventory provides livestock feed status and strategic approaches and framework to address the deficit through livestock feed value chains. The common challenges facing the feed industry were identified as limited knowledge on pasture and integrated landscape management; low production/productivity; low quality natural pasture; low value addition on natural pasture; degraded range lands; inadequate policy on range land management and uncoordinated communication approaches. The feed strategy is, therefore, developed to provide a means for addressing these challenges and improve animal feed available for sustainable and increased productivity in the livestock sub-sector.
