Through its continental survey and country assessments, RAFFS has produced a unique body of evidence. This includes:
The articulation of feed and fodder as a multi-billion-dollar unstructured subsector of critical importance to delivering better human nutrition outcomes, livestock sector productivity and production, youth employment and agricultural sector stability and resilience.

The Resilient African Feed and Fodder Systems (RAFFS) Project is an emergency response initiative jointly implemented by AU-IBAR and the Gates Foundation, designed to address short- and medium-term feed and fodder shortages that have severely impacted Africa’s livestock production, food systems, and nutrition security. The project responds to multiple converging crises, including COVID-19, climate change, and global conflict, that have exposed the structural weaknesses of Africa’s feed and fodder sector. br>In its first two years of implementation, RAFFS has delivered foundational technical assessments, developed national feed inventories and feed balance estimates, initiated policy reforms, supported investment dialogues, and operationalized multi-stakeholder platforms (MSPs) across six core countries: Kenya, Uganda, Somalia, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, and Cameroon.
Through its continental survey and country assessments, RAFFS has produced a unique body of evidence. This includes:
The articulation of feed and fodder as a multi-billion-dollar unstructured subsector of critical importance to delivering better human nutrition outcomes, livestock sector productivity and production, youth employment and agricultural sector stability and resilience.
he development of national investment profiles.
Mapping viable business models and private sector engagement and investment opportunities.
Policy and regulatory diagnostics and reforms.
Design of emerging Feed and Fodder Early Warning Systems (FFEWS).
