COMPONENT 1. LIVESTOCK PRODUCTION 1.1 ENHANCED TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION, DISSEMINATION, AND MANAGEMENT FORAGE PRODUCTION Over the course of the month, 42.5 kg of dolique was distributed to 17 producers including 7 women in the Mopti, Djenne and Bandiagar cercles. It will be planted on 5.3 hectares and produced an estimated 11 tons of forage for animal consumption and legumes for human consumption. There will be a training of trainers held in production technology, harvesting, storage, and forage use, scheduled for the beginning of November. The SOW, identifying local trainers, and preparing the modules are in progress. INCREASED ACCESS TO QUALITY INPUTS AND SERVICES To further advance L4G client’s increased access to quality inputs, L4G’s Private Sector Development Specialist met with seven livestock feed manufacturing plants in the cercles of Koutiala, Fana, and Segou from 4-8 October. At these meetings it was revealed that there is a National Federation of Cotton Oil Producers and Livestock Feed (en Francaise, le nom est Federation Nationale Des Producteurs d’huile et D’aliment de Betail du Mali (FE.NA.P.H.A.B). FENAPHAB negotiated standard animal feed prices with the Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries (MOLF). Negotiated prices are: 115,000 FCFA per ton of animal feed in all of its 58 plants across Mali and a 40% quota should be reserved for livestock organization. Given the high demand for animal feed, this price can only be guaranteed until the end of February 2017. The seven plants L4G met with in October agreed to prioritize L4G clients’ orders for livestock feed. The minimum order from Federation’s factories is 40 tons. In Bamako, L4G also went to “Bu Nafama”, a livestock food factory, and met with the Sales Manager responsible for the Northern Regions. The organization, too, is willing to prioritize L4G in its deliveries. The terms of the Bu Nafama factory are as follows: • Food for Intensive Animal Fattening : 165,000 FCFA/ton • Feed for Sheep/Goat Fattening: 185,000 FCFA/ton • Free shipping to Mopti for deliveries over 40 tons L4G clients (members of the Fatteners Networks in Bankass, Koro, and other cercles) have been informed of this opportunity to get feed for cattle at a lower cost, and each network has decided to do an identification of needs to reach the minimum demand for these plants. Once the needs are identified and the funds are gathered, L4G will be contacted to facilitate relations with the factories. Oil and animal feed production machinery at HUICOTRAC in Koutiala October 2016 Monthly Report / Mali Livestock for Growth (L4G) 1 VETERINARY SERVICES Private veterinarians supported by L4G continue to implement the vaccination campaign in Koro and Bankass Cercles. The table below shows the number of livestock vaccinated in September, as reported by Laya Togo and Hamidou Sonkada, SVPPs in Bankass. (The data from the third SVPP was unavailable at the time and there was a lack of demand from producers.)
