• No poverty
• No hunger
• Double agricultural productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers
• Correct and prevent trade restrictions and distortions in world agricultural markets
• Reduce inequality within and among countries
• Sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources
By 2030

Livestock health, production and poverty alleviation
• Progress towards sustainable development has been uneven and the most vulnerable countries remain in Africa
• International trade essential for inclusive economic growth and poverty reduction
• Majority of poor live in rural areas and > 85% of livestock keepers live in poverty
• ~ 150 million of the rural poor dependent on livestock for sustainability
• 200 million cattle supplying a rapidly-increasing demand for meat
• Livestock production and equitable market opportunities important role in poverty reduction
![Page 4: Insights into the epidemiology of foot-and- mouth disease in East Africa provides opportunities for targeted control T. Lembo, M. Casey, R. Reeve, H. Auty,](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070413/5697bff91a28abf838cbfdc5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Endemic FMD restricts Africa’s economic growth
• Among top 10 diseases constraining poverty alleviation (Perry et al., 2002)
• Consistently ranked in top five livestock diseases most important to people in African studies (Jost et al. 2010; Ohaga et al. 2007; Bedelian et al., 2007; Cleaveland et al. 2001 ; Onono et al. 2013)
• Associated with calf deaths, reduced milk supply, poor reproductive performance and heat intolerance syndrome (Cleaveland et al. 2001; Catley et al. 2004; Barasa et al. 2008; Rufael et al. 2008)
• Major constraint to local and international trade of livestock and livestock products

Most African countries still struggling to get on the PCP-FMD
![Page 6: Insights into the epidemiology of foot-and- mouth disease in East Africa provides opportunities for targeted control T. Lembo, M. Casey, R. Reeve, H. Auty,](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070413/5697bff91a28abf838cbfdc5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The impact of endemic FMD on household food security and economic growth in
Africa has not been fully quantified
AND THEREFORE
There are no incentives for its control in more traditional settings, where
interventions would have the greatest impacts on livelihoods

Methods• Household-level
questionnaire surveys on:1. Outbreak impacts on herd
production and performance
2. Morbidity and mortality due to outbreaks
• Serology• Risk factor analyses
– For seropositivity– For outbreaks (case-control
study design)
• Outbreak investigations and virus isolation

Study area
Preliminary Risk Factor Analysis for exposure to FMDV•Cattle > sheep + goats•Pastoralist + Agropastoralist > Smallholder•No effect of measures of wildlife contact•No effect of distance walked to grazing/pasture
• 58% seroprevalence in all livestock, 67% cattle, 83% buffalo
• Serial infections with different antigenic types

Conclusions
• Frequent FMD outbreaks (up to three/year) reduce milk production and sales, and traction power
• FMD epidemiology in northern Tanzania is driven by livestock-related factors
• Serotype-specific cattle outbreaks sweep across the region in a sequential and therefore predictable fashion
• FMD in Africa is amenable to control through vaccination…
