Resumen
The research aimed to critically analyze the scientific literature on livestock management strategies and their contribution to local economic development. It was conducted through a systematic literature review, following the PRISMA protocol guidelines, using articles published between 2021 and 2025 in indexed databases. The results identify productive and technological, organizational and institutional, and economic and market strategies as the most relevant. The study concludes that livestock management is a fundamental pillar for local economic development and a key input for the design of territorial policies and strategies.
