* Contribution to crop production: animals provide draught power and their manure contributes to soil fertility
* Income generation and wealth accumulation: animals may enable saving of wealth, providing security and playing a role as a ‘bank account’ and ‘insurance policy’
* Economic role: animal production may be an important part of the local and regional economy
* Livestock and the environment: livestock production is a part of sustainable land use, although animal production can have both positive and negative impact on the environment
