内罗毕猪肉食品系统是一个不断增长的牲畜分部门，是其居民的食物和生计来源。该研究旨在绘制内罗毕的猪肉价值链，评估其治理、运营挑战及其对食品安全风险和管理实践的影响。定性数据是通过7个焦点小组讨论和10个关键线人访谈收集的，内容涉及动物运动和产品流动、利益相关者的互动、对系统治理和挑战的看法，以及它们对食品安全管理的潜在影响。定量数据显示流量，业务运作和市场份额的重要性。进行了主题分析，以确定主题，提供对每个概况中的治理，挑战和食品安全实践的理解。确定的主要连锁店为[1]“大型综合公司”，占通过屠宰场销售的猪肉的83.6%，并且基于结构良好的供应系统，自有农场（占其供应的50%），合同农场和半合同农场和[1]当地独立屠宰场，占16.4%，是私人拥有的小规模生产，主要由邻近地区的小农供应（70%）。与治理主题相关的主要挑战包括：(i)现有监管的执行不足/缺乏（ii）权力下放治理体系的负面影响（iii）生猪贸易商的主导地位（iii）所有系统节点缺乏联系，以及（iv）整个生猪系统的男性主导地位。报告的主要挑战包括：（一）缺乏资金来提高消费水平（二）基础设施差（三）生猪短缺（四）监管过度（五）缺乏培训（六）疾病（五）缺乏知识（六）不公平竞争。食品安全主题与以下方面有关：(i)屠宰设施不足，迫使商人/农民进行家庭屠宰；（ii）缺乏疾病管理知识；（iii）缺乏屠宰场卫生做法培训；（iv）缺乏/不足资金购买确保适当卫生的设备，例如锅炉。该研究提供了对内罗毕猪肉供应系统结构、对利益相关者重要的治理问题、挑战和食品安全问题的见解。所获得的框架可被决策者和研究人员用于调查和发展猪肉产业以及食品安全和疾病控制规划。
The Nairobi pork food system is a growing livestock sub-sector which serves as a source of food and livelihood to its inhabitants. The study aimed to map Nairobi's pork value chains, assess their governance, operational challenges and their impacts on food safety risks and management practices. Qualitative data were collected in seven focus group discussions and 10 key informants' interviews on animal movements and product flows, stakeholders' interactions, perceptions on system governance and challenges, and on their potential impact on food safety management. Quantitative data were obtained to show the importance of flows, business operations and market share. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify themes that provide understanding on the governance, challenges and food safety practices in each profile. The predominant chains identified were [1] The “large integrated company” profile which accounted for 83.6% of pork marketed through abattoirs, and was based on a well-structured supply system, with owned farms (representing 50% of their supply), contract farms and semi-contract farms and [2] Local independent abattoirs, accounting for 16.4%, are privately owned small-scale production, supplied mainly (70%) by small farmers from the immediate neighboring areas. The main challenges associated with governance themes included; (i) Inadequate/lack of enforcement of existing regulation (ii) Negative effect of devolution system of governance (iii) Pig traders' dominance (iii) Lack of association at all system nodes, and (iv) Male dominance across the pig system. The main challenges reported included; (i) Lack of capital to upscale (ii) Poor infrastructure (iii) Pig shortage (iv) Excessive regulation (v) Lack of training (vi) Diseases (v) Lack of knowledge (vi) Unfair competition. Food safety themes were associated with (i) Inadequate slaughter facilities forcing traders/farmers to undertake home slaughter (ii) Lack of knowledge on disease management (iii) Lack of training on hygienic practices in the slaughterhouse and (iv) Lack/insufficient capital to purchase equipment's to ensure proper hygiene e.g., boilers. The study provides insights into the structure of the pork system supplying Nairobi, the governance issues important to the stakeholders, challenges and food safety issues. The framework obtained can be used by policy makers and researchers to investigate and develop pork industry and for food safety and disease control programmes.
