Beef Pork
Poultry Milk
Huge increases over 2005/7 amountsof cereals, dairy and meat will be needed by 2050
From 2bn−3bntonnes cereals each year
From 664m−1bntonnes dairy each year
From 258m−460m tonnes meat each year
Improved food and nutrition security for
health
Improved natural resource systems and
ecosystem servicesReduced poverty
ILRI’s mandate
ILRI’s mission is to improve food and nutritional security
and to reduce poverty in developing countries through research for efficient, safe and sustainable
use of livestock —ensuring better lives through livestock.
