Market mechanisms, efficiency, processing and public health risks in peri-urban dairy product markets: Synthesis of findings from Ghana and Tanzania
Despite population pressure and the urgent need for dairy production to be doubled by 2050, there is still a significant deficit in milk production in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Lack of quantity and quality feed is one of the major factors causing unsatisfactory milk yields. This Working Paper ass...
