At-risk farms in eastern Ukraine receiving potato seed, livestock fodder

Pasturing livestock in the conflict areas of eastern Ukraine has become too risky. With unexploded ordnance in the fields, thievery, and even losses due to shooting, farmers these days are keeping their animals close to home. The decision not to pasture comes with a price, though:  the price of fodder for barn feeding.

Following its recent distribution of potato seed to vulnerable farm households in the conflict-affected Donetsk and Luhansk regions, FAO is now planning a distribution of livestock fodder to the most vulnerable households in the same regions. Fodder supplies are intended to meet the needs of households that still have cows, sheep, goats, poultry or pigs.
