The Livelihoods Resource Book is an attempt to put the knowledge together into easy-to-use formats and manuals in local languages. It is written by a task force of practitioners with rich experience in enhancing household incomes around integrated small livestock rearing through a process of customised writing workshops and rigorous peer review. This book may be used for wider dissemination of practices, for ready reference by practitioners in the field, and as an input to designing training events.
