Small ruminants (sheep and goats) represent a significant part of the global livestock industry, majority (1.7 billion, ~80%) of which exists are in Asia and Africa, the two regions with highest concentration (~73%) of the poor people in the world [1]. Small ruminants are principally maintained by the poorer sections of the rural community for nutrition, livelihoods, economic development and for emergency requirement (against crop failure) to buy food and as cover for other expenses. In order to meet the global demand for meat and dairy products, livestock and livestock products have to increase significantly to keep pace with markets, this would be difficult to achieve if livestock-producing countries continue to suffer from a disease like Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR), which has devastating effect on livestock productivity, producibility and sustainability Not Available |
