Red meat production in the Tanzanian livestock master plan

A series of targeted interventions would increase the contribution of the red meat sector in Tanzania to gross national product by 26% over the 2017–2022 period, to more than USD 940 million annually. The required investment of just over USD 153 million—46% and 54% coming from the private and public sectors—in the areas of health, genetics, feed, value addition and complementary policy changes would result a 50% increase in red meat production by 2022 to 742,524 tonnes.
