This report formulates the strategy and implementation plan to expand, differentiate and formalise the Game Meat Industry in South Africa which has shown considerable potential for growth. If developed properly, considered from a sustainability perspective, this market is compatible with biodiversity conservation and could contribute favourably to economic development, job creation, food security, and sectoral transformation.
The Draft Game Meat Strategy was released by South Africa's Department of Forestry, Fisheries, and the Environment in July 2022 for public comment.
