Milk Production in Haiti

Haiti imports 52% of its food, including >70% of milk
consumed

Small scale milk production and very low yields.
450,000 Creole cows, only 20% exploited for milk

Most of the local milk is consumed unprocessed

Veterimed (donor funded NGO) started Lét Agogo, a
dairy cooperative that helps around 600 farmers
process and sell milk. Runs 12 mini-dairies.

First industrial dairy, Viva Haiti started 2007. Produces
UHT milk in 65 ml and 150 ml cartons. Fortified,
flavoured milk supplied to school milk programmes

Malnutrition – could lead to loss of 2% of GDP*
Malnutrition
Poverty

Malnutrition (Stunting) in early years is linked to:
 0.7 grades loss of schooling
 7 month delay in starting school

Leads to a >10% potential reduction in lifetime
earnings for each malnourished individual

Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies estimated to cause
loss of 0,8% of GDP in Haiti (93 mio USD)
