Livestock diseases are the leading cause of losses to livestock farmers accounting for over 70% of the total damage. Unfortunately, the animal health system in Africa leaves little to be desired and goes a long way to adversely affect these farmers who are the lifeline of our local food system. For underserved communities, quality nutrition, potent vaccines, and safe biosecurity products are not easily accessible and if they do, they are very expensive driving the average cost of production to an unimaginable height and sometimes forcing the unexpected closure of these farms. More worrisome is the extensive lack of veterinary support as farmers battle daily to sustain and fend for their livestock

At Farmalert, we partner with local animal health stores & professionals who in turn partner with these local farmers in building an inclusive system for animal health and disease prevention. We also foster a peer-to-peer network where access to regular animal health products and veterinary services can be easily gotten and learnings at various levels of farmers’ interaction shared. We make possible easy access to quality inputs such as pet foods, animal vaccines/biologics, veterinary support/on-time extension services, microcredit, and marketing platforms for finished products.
