Abstract: Kazakhstan's livestock sector has a significant, but under-exploited development potential. Livestock production has been a key economic activity in Kazakhstan for centuries and continues to be a major source of employment, food and income for the rural population. Kazakhstan's vast grasslands provide an important production base, and improved local and world market prices provide opportunities for livestock development, especially for the emerging small and medium size producers. The Government of Kazakhstan (GoK) can play a leading role in enabling livestock producers to capture this potential. Such a livestock development strategy would also contribute to the broader objectives of socially and environmentally sustainable development of the rural areas set by the Government of Kazakhstan.
