发展中城市的城市畜牧业在粮食安全和生计方面发挥着重要作用，但也可能对城市居民的环境和健康构成重大威胁。本研究的目的是确定内罗毕不同的畜牧系统，其供应链，管理和食品安全风险。与负责内罗毕各主要县的畜牧生产官员进行了七次重点小组讨论。收集了关于每种牲畜现有系统类型及其供应链、疾病管理、食品安全风险以及一般畜牧业和性别因素的数据。供应链流程图和专题分析的数据进行了。研究结果表明，内罗毕的牲畜饲养情况差异很大。大多数是小规模的：
Urban livestock keeping in developing cities have an important role in food security and livelihoods but can also pose a significant threat to the environment and health of urban dwellers. The aim of this study was to identify the different livestock systems in Nairobi, their supply chains, and their management and food safety risks. Seven focus group discussions with livestock production officers in charge of each major Nairobi sub-county were conducted. Data were collected on the type of systems existing for each livestock species and their supply chains, disease management, food safety risks, and general husbandry and gender factors. Supply chain flow diagrams and thematic analysis of the data was done. Results of the study show a large variability of livestock keeping in Nairobi. The majority were small scale with:
