Extended Data Table 1 Milk yields and cattle populations to 2030 per scenario

From: High-yield dairy cattle breeds improve farmer incomes, curtail greenhouse gas emissions and reduce dairy import dependency in Tanzania

  1. Values are disaggregated by breed type (local and improved), district and production system (MRT, MRH). Milk production is simulated with LivSim (see Methods). Production increases are set to 70% of the target for all scenarios except for High ambition ++ with the increase at 100% of the target. The production target is defined in relation to the Base year level of milk production. Breed compositions differ across Meagre, Middle road, and High ambition in accordance with the genetics targets defined by the dairy roadmap.
