Abstract

This report presents an integrated analysis of the small ruminant dairy value chain across the Taiz, Aden, Lahj, and Abyan Governorates of Yemen, together with a corresponding upgrading strategy and implementation plan. Part I diagnoses the structure, economics, and constraints of the value chain on the basis of primary field data, while Part II translates that diagnosis into a coherent, prioritized program of interventions designed to strengthen the livelihoods and food security of vulnerable populations, including smallholder farmers, women-headed households, youth, and internally displaced persons.
