The Council of Ministers of the Organization of African Unity meeting in its Forty- second Ordinary Session in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from 10 to 17 July, 1985,
Aware of the lack of adequate source of protein from animals in Africa for human consumption,
Recognizing the continued decrease of available land for grazing,
Conscious of efforts to increase food production in the Member States and therefore increase agro-industrial by-products:
CALLS UPON the OAU Secretary-General to implement the project which will encourage increased utilization of agro-industrial by-products;
URGES the OAU Secretary-General to seek funds from external sources for the implementation of the programme.
