He said the 2011 National Agricultural Sample Survey indicated that Nigeria was endowed with an estimated 19.5 million cattle, 72.5 million goats, 41.3 million sheep, 7.1 million pigs and 28,000 camels.
Accordingly, the minister said the country had 145 million chickens, 11.6 million ducks, 1.2 million turkeys and 974, 499 donkeys.
Mr. Ogbeh said this impressive statistics which had made Nigeria number one in livestock in Africa had not met the national demand of animal protein or contributed to the GDP over the years.
He decried the low milk production in Nigeria as a cow produced one litre of milk a day while a cow in Saudi Arabia or Brazil produced 30 to 40 litres.
“Saudi Arabia produces 4.7 million litres of milk daily while Nigeria imports about 1.3 billion dollar worth of milk annually to make up deficit.
The minister said of all the enterprise in the livestock sector, only the poultry industry had achieved an appreciable level of commercialisation.

Many commenters did not even take note that the figures were of census conducted in 2011 under the last administration (think clueless?)

Nor of the fact that if you go through the report with a fine comb you will see business ideas hidden there-in

That though we are no 1 in livestock production in Africa yet have not met our national animal protein needs hence the importation.
That there is opportunity for anyone interested in llivestock for milk production to tap out of the $1.3 billion worth of milk we import annually.

The essence of the goat census or statistics is to see what we have on ground (in terms of livestock) compared to our human population wether its adequate or not. For future population planning.

Knowing our population and the food requirement of each individual is what will help us know wether we are self sufficient or we need to work harder to meet our need or for export
