UF's Gbola Adesogan has received a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to expand research on livestock systems in Africa. The one-year project looks for future investment potential and income streams for small-scale farmers.

“This project is important because of the challenges faced by so many of these livestock keepers,” said Adesogan “Identifying suitable options to improve pastoral systems can help improve their livelihoods, their resilience to droughts and prevent eruptions of violence that disrupt these regions.”
