Description
Summary:	The specific objective of this policy note is to derive insights that can contribute to rapid and sustainable integration of small-scale farmers into the livestock and horticulture value chains in Swaziland. It seeks to do this by identifying constraints that may be contributing to poor performance in the two value chains, evaluating technological options that could improve productivity, and identifying priority areas for future government interventions. The livestock and the horticulture value chains were selected for in-depth analysis because they both are important to Swaziland, and have the potential to become even more important in the future.
