The County is endowed with vast livestock species namely cattle, sheep, goats and camels. Livestock production provides food security and income to the households while also providing social security and societal pride in the pastoral community. Approximately 80 per cent of the county's inhabitants derive their livelihoods from livestock enterprise, and close to 70 per cent of the rural labour force is employed in the livestock sub-sector. The subsector development agenda is in line with the vision 2030 and the Big four National government agenda.
