Local Works for livestock activity in Turkmenistan

USAID/Central Asia envisions an upcoming activity in the area of cattle productivity and meat and dairy value chain strengthening in Turkmenistan. The upcoming activity will focus on improving cattle productivity through one or more of the following approaches: (1) improving small and medium-size farms’ access to genetic material for more productive cattle breeds; (2) improving small and medium farms’ access to quality feed; (3) improving farmers’ knowledge and skills in proper cattle care; and (4) other activities to strengthen the local dairy and meat value chains. USAID is exploring the landscape of actors with capacity and experience in Turkmenistan, in the areas of grant and contract administration, and/or in the livestock sector. This Request for Information (RFI) seeks information on the availability, interest, and diverse capacities of entities to support a prospective USAID livestock activity in Turkmenistan.
