Livestock
EICM supports livestock-based livelihoods, recognizing the vital role of animals such as cows, sheep, goats, and chickens in strengthening families and rural communities. These animals provide essential resources, including milk, eggs, wool, and meat, improving household nutrition and food security. Livestock also support agriculture through manure, which enhances soil fertility and increases crop production through sustainable farming practices.
In addition, livestock serve as valuable economic assets that can be traded or sold, generating income and improving financial stability for families. By integrating food production, agriculture, and income generation, livestock contribute to community resilience, long-term development, and improved quality of life in underserved regions.
