Livestock production plays a major role in the life of farmers in developing countries like Pakistan. As crops and livestock rearing in rural areas directly affects food security condition of the nations. This study has been devised to observe the impact of Livestock on food security. In this regard data was collected from Food Insecurity Report 2009 (SDPI, SDC and World Food Program 2009), Punjab Development Statistics (Government of Punjab 2009) and Agriculture Census Report 2010 (Government of Punjab 2010). Generalized Linear Model was used to find out the relationship between livestock and food security. Results show that there is positive relationship between the work animal per hectare, milk animal per person and food security, whereas meat animal per hectare and milk animal per person are negatively related with food security. The study finding has important policy implications for food security recommended that livestock rearing needs to be encouraged.
