This Review article concerns on the types and quantity of milk products produced in Ethiopia and imported and exported products by Ethiopia, to review factors affecting milk and milk product export. The dairy industry is one of the most important components of the world food system and is undergoing dramatic change at the current time. Exports are forecast to expand across all the main dairy commodities, namely butter, cheese, Whole Milk Powder (WMP) and Skim Milk Powder (SMP). However, data of the Ethiopian Revenue and Customs Authority indicate that the country is a net importer of milk and its derivatives. Presently the value of exported dairy products is very low. The major dairy products in Ethiopia include traditional and industrially produced products. However, "Between "2013 to 2017, the country spent over 48.61 million US Dollar to import various milk and milk products. Ethiopia is not known to export dairy products. Informal marketing channels, poor quality product, fully unimplemented and unfitted of International standards and requirements, Absence of quality-based payments, unlicensed traders, Recent Power Cut and Lack of dairy policy were the main factors that affect milk and milk products export by Ethiopia. The government should be made regulatory laws which guided and controlled illegal traders who entered the domestic and international markets. Formulate dairy and milk product policies to enhanced export performance. Encourage and support the processors to substitute imported products and to export quality milk and milk products worldwide.

There was no research regarding selection criteria for the economically relevant dairy cattle objective traits in Ethiopia. Therefore, the goal of this paper was to determine the selection criteria for Holstein Friesian and crossbreed dairy cattle economically relevant traits. The research was based on 236 respondents of large, medium and small scale dairy farms from Dire-Dawa, Harar, Bishoftu, Holeta agricultural research center and Mekele. Data were analyzed using statistical analysis software and traits preferences were ranked by calculating index values with the principle of weighted average. For Holstein Friesian producers, the most preferred breeds were pure Holstein Friesian, Holstein Friesian crossbreeds and local cattle breeds with an overall index value of 0.47, 0.36, and 0.13, respectively. Similarly for crossbreed producers, pure Holstein Friesian (0.46), Holstein Friesian crossbreed (0.37) and local cattle (0.15), respectively, were their main breed preferred. In the present study, both Holstein Friesian and crossbreed producers were used milk yield (0.61, and 0.64) and milk yield composition (0.39, and 0.34), as the main preferred selection criteria for milk composition, respectively. On the other situations, age at first calving (0.45, and 0.39), age at first service (0.38, and 0.37), and service per conception (0.08, and 0.17), were the preferred selection criteria for economically relevant reproduction traits both for Holstein Friesian and crossbreed, respectively.

“…Even though LVCs represent a significant source of income for the rural population and ensure effective food delivery that meets the culturally diverse needs of urban and rural consumers in a developing country, only recently, has agribusinesses' and development analysts' attention been placed on LVCs (Dürr, 2015;Lie et al, 2012). This attention aims to promote alternative development models and smallholder opportunities in developing countries (Ketema et al, 2016;Lie et al, 2012;.…”

“…Existing studies do not make a comprehensive analysis of LVCs that exist in dualistic sectors. For example,Ketema et al, (2016) used a multinomial model to determine factors that influence producer's milk channel choice in the dairy VC of Harar and Dire Dawa Areas of Eastern Ethiopia. Similarly,Ouma et al, (2017) used a multinomial logit model to identify the determinants of vertical integration among pig traders in Uganda Hichaambwa and Tschirley, (2010).…”

To achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, research concepts and empirical evidence are needed to upgrade developing countries' smallholder activities within local value chains (LVCs).The study aims to uncover LVCs' (1) organization, (2) governance themes and gender roles for value addition and (3) smallholder upgrading strategies in developing countries' dualistic sectors.The global value chain (GVC) framework is extended towards a gendered value web approach that captures the importance of hidden gender roles and power relations. Empirical data obtained from three focus group discussions and 21 interviews in the Nigerian shrimp and prawn sector represent the basis for qualitative analysis. The results clearly indicate that, despite being buyerdriven by competitive traders, mutually reliant coordination between production and processing segments and strategic business activities of female processors are crucial for the LVCs' functioning. Based on these results, manifold managerial and policy implications are derived to upgrade and develop smallholder activities and products along the Nigerian shrimp and prawn LVC, which can also apply to other developing countries and cases.
