Production, distribution and processing on farms with cattle breeding

Obeng, Irene Otwuwa

The diploma thesis concentrates on production of cattle in Ghana and on analysing whether cattle production has a bright future in Ghana. The main aim of the thesis is to evaluate the trend and performance of cattle production by using selected macroeconomic indicators. The indicators used were: population growth rate, inflation, gross domestic product and unemployment in the country in ten years (2006 to 2015). The indicators were also measured against domestic meat produced in the country. Findings suggest that a 1% increase in inflation will cause 0.04% increase in cattle production whereas a 1% increase in population will cause a huge change of 0.88% increase in the trend of cattle production. On the other hand, increase in gross profit product and unemployment do not cause any change in the trend of cattle production and domestic meat production.
