ILMIS

ILMIS stands for IGAD Livestock Marketing Information System. It is an android-driven digital platform that provides information on estimated weight and prices of livestock to potential buyers and for buyers to specify their required specifications and quantities to potential sellers.

The app was built to establish and strengthen digital e-platforms for cross-border livestock marketing as a way of mitigating potential shocks such as drought, insecurity, floods, and pandemics like Covid-19, which affect livestock marketing in border communities
