Food security and sustainability
How will the world feed itself sustainablyby the time the population stabilizes about 2050?
• 60% more food than is produced now will be needed
• 75% of this must come from productivity − not land − increases
• The higher production must be achieved while reducing poverty and addressing environmental, social and health concerns
• This greater production will have to be achieved in theface of temperatures 2−4 degrees warmer than today’s
Nutritional divides among 7 billion people today
Malnutrition is costly.FAO estimates the costs of malnutrition
to be as high as US$3.5 trillion a year
Gains in meat consumption in developing countries outpace that of developed countries

Global food production: From where?
Herrero et al. 2009
Developing-country mixed crop-livestock systems, most of them smallholders, supplythe large proportionof livestock products
Smallholder livestock keepers are competitive
East African dairy• 1 million Kenyan smallholders keep Africa’s largest dairy herd• Ugandans are the world’s lowest-cost milk producers• Small- and large-scale Kenyan poultry and dairy producers
have same levels of efficiency and profits
Vietnam pig industry• 95% of production is by producers with less than 100 animals • Pig producers with 1-2 sows have lower unit costs
than those with more than 4 sows• Industrial pig production could grow to meet
no more than 12% of national supply in the next 10 years • Smallholders will continue to provide most of the pork

GlobalAnimal Health
Smallholders can commercialize
Smallholders can continue to most provide livestock products in most developing countries only ifthe following animal health problems are addressed:
• Poor market access− Reduce food safety problems that reduce
• Africa = +15.7% year-on-year growth (2nd after Latin America)
Animal health markets in developing countries: Significant and growing
Animal health markets:Where is the demand?
15 countries make up more than 85%of the global animal health market:
• Europe: France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, UK
• Asia: Japan, China, India, Korea
• Americas: Canada, USA, Brazil, Mexico
• Oceania: Australia
Developing and emerging countriesare increasingly important
Animal health markets:India
• 500 million livestock,1 billion poultry
• Livestock sector is 2nd-largest contributor to GDP (6%)
• World’s biggestdairy producer
• Animal health marketannual growth over 8%
• Worth $370 million in 2008:52% cattle, 38% poultry
Animal health markets: Opportunities in developing countries
• Appropriate packaging/marketing (e.g., drugs in smaller packages)
• Delivery systems for small farms
• Surveillance for drug resistance
• ‘One Health’ approaches and ‘Rational Drug Use’ for both people and animals
• ‘Game-changing products’:e.g., vaccines for Newcastledisease and East Coast fever
• Quality assurance forveterinary medicines

Last words
The risks of ignoring pressing animal healthissues in the developing world are huge:− Lost livelihoods and food in developing countries− Reduced global food security− Impaired human health in all countries
The opportunities for improving animal healthin developing countries are just as big:− A significant and rapidly growing market
achieved with appropriate approaches
