Our research in the People Livestock and Environment Theme provides guidelines towards sustainable feed options that enhance livestock production. These options will promote the transition of smallholder crop livestock farmers to improved livelihoods through market participation without environmental damage. We also seek to provide options for reduced vulnerability and improved livelihoods in pastoral systems through better management of risk and improved adaptive capacity. As part of the wider world community we care about the integrity of the environment.
