Introduction:

The Livestock and Environment Toolbox is available at no cost on CD-ROM in English, French and Spanish. It contains information (text, photos, tables and maps) which enable the user to explore interactions between livestock and the environment and to identify technical and policy or institutional development options for enhancing positive or mitigating negative effects of livestock on the natural resource base, together with suggestions for increasing awareness of the issues among a spectrum of policy-makers, planners and extension officers. The web/Internet version of the Toolbox is available at this site.
