Livestock Development in the South of Armenia
The Syunik region in Armenia's south produces high-quality beef and dairy products, but many of these livestock farmers are unable to make the most of their animals. This project funded by the SDC helps 7,000 families to increase their milk and meat production, and thus increase their incomes. To achieve this goal, the SDC provides support to local veterinary services, facilitates market access and encourages farmers to acquire specialist knowledge and share it among themselves.

Contexte |
The region of Syunik is one of the most disadvantaged regions of Armenia due to its extreme remoteness, bad roads and unfavourable climatic conditions. Agriculture and food processing have always been the main economic bases in the region. However, as a result of low efficiency in production and limited access to markets, farmers face difficulties to graduate from self-subsistance to more market oriented farming. |
Objectifs |
Strengthening of livestock sector in the regions of Goris and Sisian and incrase of income for farmers in the targeted communities. |
Groupes cibles |
The main target groups are the different stakeholders involved in the livestock sector (milk processors, veterinaries, input suppliers, etc). Final project beneficiaries are about 7'000 farmers/smallholders families (about 30'000 people) in the regions of Goris and Sisian. |
Effets à moyen terme |
|
Résultats |
Principaux résultats antérieurs: In previous phases a successful Public Private Development Partnership with a local diary company and links with other private market players in the dairy and meat value chains were established. This and other interventions (e.g. improving veterinary services) led to an increased production of meat by 16% and milk by 11%, allowing for an average annual income increase per farmer of between 110 and 200 CHF. |
