Use of the electronic pasture committee (EPC) information management system in Kyrgyzstan

Location: Kyrgyzstan

Principal organisations: KYRGYZ JAYITY

Kyrgyz Jayity has created an electronic pasture committee (EPC) software for effective and decentralised management and monitoring of the status of national pastures. Pasture User Unions (PUUs) are able to access all the necessary information about pasture users, livestock and pastureland conditions, infrastructure and vaccination activities in each village. Through the tool, the PUUs can carry out an inventory of pastures, a geo-botanical survey of pastures and develop plans for pasturing cattle while considering the corridor for migration of wild animals.
