Earlier Report Observations

Togo's beef and buffalo meat production increased from 4 803 t in 2018 to 5 850 t in 2020, driven by the government's National Development Plan and integrated agropole strategy that modernized livestock farming. The development of pasture zones and the construction of new abattoirs in 2020 enhanced meat quality and traceability, supporting higher output.

From 2021, stricter sanitary controls and meat traceability systems were implemented, followed by the validation of 42 national agro-food standards in 2022 covering beef. These regulations, along with temporary suspensions of frozen poultry imports to bolster local producers, further stimulated domestic beef production, which reached 8 699 t by 2023 while imports fell to zero.
