Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Recruitment of Subject Matter expert on Dairy ProductionSNV is a not-for-profit international development organization, working in Agriculture, Energy, and Water, Sanitation & Hygiene. Founded in the Netherlands in 1965, we have built a long-term, local presence in more than 30 countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Our global team of local and international advisors works with local partners to equip communities, businesses and organizations with the tools, knowledge and connections they need to increase their incomes and gain access to basic services empowering them to break the cycle of poverty and guide their own development.
Project Background
The Embedding Integrated Water Resources Management (EWMR) Project in Rwanda is a 3-year project funded by the Royal Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (EKN) in Kigali. The overall project is led by International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and SNV is leading the component on Innovative Financing Mechanisms and Value Chains for enhanced livelihoods in Sebeya and other catchments of Western Rwanda.
The project implements activities to restore the Sebeya catchment using landscape approach through institutional capacity strengthening; village-based land use planning and action implementation; engaging with the private sector for market access; developing livelihood alternatives; and scaling up community-based approaches for restoration. The government of Rwanda is a major player in this project as they facilitate investment fund to enable action on the ground while the technical assistance will be provided by IUCN and SNV subsequently.
Community-based approaches
The EWMR project is anchored on a community-based approach and in recognition of diverse community needs and priorities, it is crucial to incorporate various types of livestock including cows, sheep, goats, pigs, rabbits, and chickens
Rwanda’s livestock masterplan recognizes the potential of livestock to accelerate growth in the agricultural sector, contributing to nutritional gaps as well as improving household incomes. In addition, the need for fodder for livestock can act as an incentive for farmers to grow fodder crops on their farms that are good for feeding livestock as well as providing fuel. The manure from livestock is crucial for improving soil fertility and consequently farm productivity. Livestock integration presents an opportunity for multiple benefits in terms of income generation from the sale of livestock while contributing to EWRMR Project’s environmental objectives.

The rationale for the assignment
Following recommendations based on community-led Village Land Use Actions Plans (VLUAPs), EWMR disbursed dairy cows to households to improve their livelihoods. However, the households lack knowledge and skills that are crucial for the application of good practices in animal husbandry such as housing, health, reproduction, milk handling, and hygiene. This knowledge gap can easily result in low productivity in both body mass, reproduction, and post-harvest losses in products such as milk due to poor handling and hygiene thus becoming an impediment to optimizing the economic benefits of livestock keeping. Therefore, the support to farmers through training and linkage to both MCCs, inputs, and service providers is necessary to bridge the knowledge gap and equip the dairy farmers with relevant skills that will help them to maximize the benefits of sustainable livestock rearing (within the provisions of their environment) and improve their food security and incomes.
SNV is seeking the services of a technical expert in livestock management, who will work with the EWMR project team to deliver training to farmers in Nyabihu and Rubavu.
