Résumé The Livestock Development in Ghana, Policies and Strategies (PS) is a national sectoral law to guide livestock development in Ghana. It was developed by the Ministry of Food and Agricore of Ghana in 2004 with goals to be reached by 2015. The PS will seek a well-developed, modernized, efficient and profitable livestock industry capable of responding to all the livestock needs of the nation in a sustainable manner and in consonance with supporting human livelihoods to ensure poverty reduction and national economic growth. In particular, the PS will seek to increase the supply of meat, animal and dairy products from domestic production; and to contribute to the reduction of the incidence of poverty among food farmers, who are also livestock keepers.
