It could be a good spring board to start with analysis of past cases of success and failiure particlarly regarding livestock development. Past trends of growing demand for animal products incentivized livestock devlopment in latin American and south east Asian countries. Meanwhile, such success was far from realized in sub Sharan Africa.

My suggestion in this is for stronger focus to distinct local policy and capacity challenges. These factors represent major impediments particularly to livestock development in sub Saharan Africa. Such lmitations hinder optimum exploitation of rising opportunities and limmit capacity to effectively deal with prevailing challenges.
