Tanzania is rich in livestock resources in terms of numbers and variety. It ranks third in Africa in terms of cattle population after Ethiopia (31 million) and Sudan (30 million). The estimated livestock population amounts to 18.5 million cattle, 13.1 million goats, 3.6 million sheep and 30 million indigenous poultry among other species.
Of the 88.6 million hectares of land resource 60 million hectares are rangelands suitable for livestock grazing. The rangelands have a capacity to carry a total of 20 million livestock units. Presently only 17 million Livestock Units are kept. There is therefore ample land for expansion of the livestock industry and hence the potential for investment opportunities.
