Working Paper 39: Winners and Losers in Livestock Commercialisation in Northern Kenya
This paper examines how livestock commercialisation has impacted different actors and different wealth groups in Isiolo and Marsabit counties
Abstract
This paper examines how livestock commercialisation has impacted different actors and different wealth groups in Isiolo and Marsabit counties. Although livestock commercialisation has received global research and development attention, relatively little is known about its implications for different actors along value chains in northern Kenya. With large-scale investments in infrastructure and government plans to more closely incorporate the region into Kenya’s wider domestic livestock markets in the central highlands and Nairobi, this study uses a combination of research methods to provide key insights.
