TAAT is part of the African Development Bank's Feed Africa strategy, which aims to achieve agricultural transformation across Africa. TAAT supports this strategy by providing proven agricultural technologies and implementation strategies. The small ruminants value chain focuses on scaling proven technologies in Ethiopia, Mali, Nigeria and other countries. Key activities for small ruminants include advising on regulations, networking actors to improve forage and feeding, and promoting business models for fattening enterprises and feed processors. The goals are to unleash regional technology delivery and see scaling results in Ethiopia in 2018 by exploring partnerships.

Introduction to Technology for African Agricultural Transformation (TAAT) and the livestock compact (Small ruminant)
- 1. Introduction to TAAT and the livestock compact (Small ruminant) Iddo Dror Program Leader, Impact at Scale TAAT Small Ruminants Value Chain Inception Meeting, ILRI Addis Ababa 22 June 2018
- 2. TAAT and Feed Africa TAAT is part of AfDB’s “Feed Africa” Strategy, which aims to achieve major agricultural transformation: 150m people adequately fed / 100m people lifted out of poverty / 190m hectares with restored productivity TAAT supports Feed Africa by providing needed, proven agricultural technologies and implementation strategies for inclusion within AfDB's loans to Regional Member Countries.
- 4. Fundamental Guiding Principles of TAAT Technologymatters Technology Scale policy & regulatory environment Partnerships & collaboration
- 5. Funding overview • Relatively small central funds (grant), with much larger country program (loan) operations. • Central funds spread across 9 compacts and 6 enablers, operating across 27 countries • Central funds meant as ‘showcase’ to catalyze investments, and link to actors whose activities are aligned
- 6. Livestock Compact - Overview • Poultry and Small Ruminants Value Chains (with several sub- components in each) • Focus countries include Ethiopia, Mali, Nigeria, with country operation support in a few other countries • Focus on scaling proven technologies – not a research program
- 7. Livestock Compact – key activities (small ruminants) • Advise regulatory authorities on implementation of enabling regulations for small ruminants, • Network actors for improved forage options & efficient feeding systems, fattening enterprises and feed processors. • Promotion of business models for fattening enterprises and feed processors for small ruminants • Scaling of Improved Forage Options & Efficient Feeding Systems
- 8. Expectations • We’re here to unleash the ‘Regional Technology Delivery Infrastructure’ for small ruminants in Ethiopia • Looking for ‘quick wins’, scaling results in 2018 • Explore how best to do this together in Ethiopia.
- 9. Components of the TAAT Program Creation of Enabling Environment Regional Technology Delivery Infrastructure (RTDI) Strengthening Technology Delivery Project Management & Coordination TAAT Structure 9 Compacts, 6 Enablers, Activities in 27 African countries
