The Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Livestock Systems conducts livestock research targeting small-scale livestock-keepers in developing countries. It generates scientific evidence to improve production and management practices, policies, and nutrition from animal-source foods. The Livestock Systems Innovation Lab’s vision is to sustainably intensify smallholder livestock systems in order to improve human nutrition, health, livelihoods and incomes for people in developing countries. This Innovation Lab is managed at the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (IFAS), in partnership with the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI). We receive funding from USAID and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
