Abstract

Livestock contributes 6 to 7 percent of Chad's gross domestic product and over 35 percent of total wealth in rural areas. This paper analyzes trade and transport logistics facilitation measures for curtailing the adverse effects of trade disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis pays specific attention to measures related to behavior during border crossings and transactions along the trade corridors. The relevant actors do not understand the implication of the relevant measures; hence, there is a need for a peer pressure in the framework of empowered professional organizations, enforcement of regional regulations through universal reliance on the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa’s veterinary passport, as well as the practice of physical distancing through measures eliminating congestion at border crossing posts. A bolder post-COVID-19 reform will need to foster livestock-driven agro-industrialization.
