Abstract:

There is a continuous increase in demand for animal origin food at global level. Massive urbanization, huge population growth, increase in education level and increase in per capita income in Pakistan are main contributors behind this increasing demand driven growth. This increased demand can provide growth in income opportunities for a large number of rural poor populations. But “Livestock Revolution” will over burden the capacity of existing production and distribution systems of the economy. This can further deteriorate public health and environmental issues. Governments and industry should get ready for this continuous change with long term policies and investments that will fulfill consumer demand, improve nutrition and provide direct income growth opportunities to those who need these and at the same time would reduce environmental and public health issues. The weak regulatory system place in Pakistan must be improved for formulating and implementing balanced policies for both urban and rural communities attached with sector. The governments would focus on these main issues while formulating and reforming Livestock Development Strategy in Pakistan(National Strategy: 2021).1
