Doc 020 - Light Assessment of Livestock Policy Formulation and its Implementation in Orissa

In Orissa assembly approval was accorded to the Livestock Policy in Oct. 2002 and implementation started from 2003‐2004. The Management Board of SA PPLPP felt that understanding the situation in Orissa regarding implementation of Livestock Policy and the views and experiences of the staff of related departments and organizations in this regard would be useful. A light assessment was proposed addressing issues such as: ‐ to what extent has it been implemented, ‐ what are the key strengths, ‐what are the problems that are being faced in implementation.

Learning from the experiences with implementation of a State Livestock Policy in Orissa might form a valid learning for all those States in the process of developing a Livestock Policy. The other objectives of this study are to:

• Assess awareness about the policy and its contents amongst staff related organizations (different sections of AH Department, OMFED, College),

• Understand perceptions of the officers of related organizations policy formulation process and the need, utility and benefit of the to the sector,

• Understand views on recommendations made in the policy experience related to their implementation,

• Understand changes/reforms in working systems and Human Institutional Development (HID) activities initiated after the policy was framed.
