CAPACITY BUILDING INITIATIVE ON DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
3. INTRODUCTION
Ethiopia is endowed with various agro-ecological zones and Milk is
produced in all parts of the country
It is believed that Ethiopia possesses the highest cattle
population in Africa with a total cattle heads of about 52
million(About 55.48 percent are females)
Ninety eight percent of the total milk produced comes from the
rural dairy system while only 2% percent is contributed by the
commercial dairy
Ninety-seven percent of the total milk produced from cattle is
obtained from indigenous breeds while the remaining 3% comes from
exotic-crosses and pure-grade cattle

4. INTRODUCTION, CONT
Ethiopias dairy development history dates back to more than six
decades before. Various structural changes, adjustments, and
development endeavors in dairying have been taking place since
then
The sector, however, didntgrow and the country is not benefiting
from the sector properly
To address the issue of dairy and meat production, the Ethiopian
Meat and Dairy Technology Institute (EMDTI) was established in
January 2008 with the major objectives of capacity building,
investment promotion, and market facilitation
The institute is located 45 km South East of Addis Ababa, the
capital city

6. DAIRY DEVELOPMENT endeavors UNDERTAKEN SO FAR
Various dairy development endeavors have been undertaken aimed at
improving the sector which include the following:
- Three hundred Friesian and Brown Swiss dairy cattle were received as a donation in 1947 from the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA) which marked the first attempt to introduce modern dairy production in Ethiopia

7. DAIRY DEVELOPMENT, Cont
- Various dairy-related plants and projects were established:
8. Sholaprocessing plant in 1960 9. Chilalo Agricultural
Development Unit (CADU) later named as Arsi Rural Development Unit
(ARDU) in 1967 10. Dairy Development Agency (DDA) in 1971 11. Addis
Ababa Dairy Development Project (AADDP) in 197111/24/2010

12. DAIRY DEVELOPMENT, Cont
- Following the 1974 revolution, the DDA was merged with other nationalized dairy farms to establish the Dairy Development Enterprise (DDE)
13. Welaita Agricultural Unit (WADU) in 1973 14. Minimum Package
Programme(MPP) in 1972/73 15. National Artificial Insemination
Center (NAIC) in 1981 16. Dairy Rehabilitation and Development
Project (DRDP) in 198611/24/2010

17. DAIRY DEVELOPMENT, Cont
- Sellale Peasant Dairy Development Pilot Project (SPDDPP) in 1987 which was later transformed to the Small Holders Dairy Development Project (SDDP)
18. Different crossbred heifers production ranches werealso
established in the 1940s and 1950s(Milk production in Ethiopia had
increased significantly during the 1960s with an average annual
growth rate of 1.63%)

19. DAIRY DEVELOPMENT, Cont
- Privatization has been implemented since early 1990s in which many enterprises including the DDE were privatized opening an opportunity for better development of the sector
20. Moreover, the involvement of nongovernmental organizations
have been contributing a lot in the attempts for the development of
the sector11/24/2010

21. LESSONS LEARNT FROM PAST EXPERIENCES
Failure in sustainability of the dairy development projects and
programmes
Development of the sector at large remained much
unsatisfactory
The huge cattle population and the potentials for dairy development
are still underutilized

22. CURRNT STATUS OF DAIRYING
Out of the total quantity of milk produced in the country only less
than 2% is processed at industrial level
Annual per capita consumption of milk is declining: some documents
put it as 17kgs while others indicate 20 kgs
Importation of milk and milk products is increasing from year to
year

23. CURRENT STATUS, Cont
Taking the case ofAddis Ababa as an example, the total annual
quantity of milk available for a population of about 4 million is
less than 65,000 tones out of which about 15,000 tones is
industrially processed or pasteurized while the remaining 50, 000
is sold out to consumers directly by producers_ but this is highly
supported by imported milk and milk products

34. RECENT DEVELOMENTS
To alleviate the problems associated with the sector, the
Government has started taking different measures including the
establishment of the EMDTI
Governmental and nongovernmental organizations who have stakes in
dairy development of the country have began working in close
collaborations more than any time before
Currently, various projects are being undertaken aimed
atestablishing large dairy industries and commercial dairy farms
which are believed to contribute much to the development of the
sector
