Earlier Report Observations
The market for horse, donkey and mule meat in Mali, entirely supplied by domestic production, expanded consistently from 6 252 t in 2018 to 6 925 t in 2023, reflecting an overall increase of 673 t over the six-year period. Annual growth remained around 2%, indicating stable sector development.
Early support came from livestock export revenues, particularly from the Mopti region, which bolstered producer income in 2018. Concurrent government sensitization campaigns on sanitary measures helped protect the sector. The following year, official recognition of the national equine and asinine herd underscored the economic importance of this livestock segment.
Growth was further reinforced by substantive policy and infrastructure actions. In 2021, authorities implemented measures to facilitate cross-border trade of cattle and meat within the Mali-Mauritania-Senegal zone, establishing dedicated centers at Koury and Kayes. The launch of the N’Débougou IV project aimed at rehabilitating agricultural infrastructure also indirectly supported meat production. By 2022, the adoption of a Marshall Plan for 2022-2024 by the Supreme Agriculture Council provided a structured framework to support livestock farming and food security, sustaining the upward production trend through the end of the period.
