LIVESTOCK & GENETICS EXPORT STRATEGY 2024/2025

Livestock and Genetics Export Strategy 2024-2025

INTRODUCTION

In 2018, we introduced the first integrated Livestock and Genetics export promotion strategy bringing together the resources of the Agriculture & Horticulture Development Board (AHDB), the Department of Business & Trade (DBT) through British Embassies abroad and the UK Export Certification Partnership (UKECP) in a co-ordinated programme managed by industry stakeholders British Livestock Genetics (BLG) and UK Technology for Agriculture and Genetics (UKTAG).

Having built momentum through the Brexit transition period, the strategy is designed to take advantage of the prediction that 90% of growth will be outside the EU and enable the UK livestock sector to exploit the increasing demand for meat and milk in these developing markets.

Our two high level objectives are to maintain and expand existing market share and develop new market opportunities. These objectives are to be achieved through a programme of inward and outward missions working with DBT as well as the eleven Agricultural Attachés based in British embassies and consulates around the world - in Canada, Mexico, USA, Brazil, Kenya, The Gulf, India, Japan, China, Thailand and Vietnam - working to remove trade barriers, identify emerging international markets and tap into growing demand worldwide for quality goods from UK farmers and producers.
