Hi all,
The Ministry of Livestock in the Sudan is looking for best practices in investment prioritization, innovation in investment financing and examples of effective PPPs. This is the context of on-going development of a national agricultural investment plan and efforts to better position "the livestock investment story" in the broader investment plan. They have designed a survey monkey for feedback from local stakeholders (see message below) but if you could share any innovations in investment financing or examples of successful PPPs in the livestock sector, sharing them would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Nancy

Objet : Livestock investment in the Sudan: What are the priorities? We need your feedback.
Dear all,
It is recognized that livestock in the Sudan, which accounts for approximately 60 percent of the value of the agricultural sector, can serve as a driving force for economic growth while serving to reduce poverty in rural areas. Yet the sector is largely perceived as unfulfilling its potential despite livestock inventories which are among the largest in the African region. Rather, the rural asset base, relatively rich in animal resources, remains largely traditional with a majority of smallholders isolated from the market, selling only when needed and only in small quantities.
Within the context of an on-going dialogue on the National Agricultural Investment Plan (the NAIP) which is being coordinated by the Government in a participatory process, your input into priority investment needs by the livestock sector is being solicited. We would appreciate if you could spend 15 minutes of your time filling out this questionnaire (see link below) which will feed into investment planning/knowledge management linked to sector development.
The results will be confidential and the questionnaire should be filled out by the 16th of May, 2015. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SW3QSQN
We appreciate your cooperation and assistance and look forward to receiving your input. While the topic is complicated, we hope that this is only the first step in a constructive dialogue with livestock stakeholders.
Please feel free to send this email to interested colleagues who would be interested in providing comments on the topic.
The Ministry of Livestock and FAO
