Diversifying diets and food systems
- 1. Diversifying diets and food systems for better nutrition and health Beatrice Ekesa, Gina Kennedy & Bruce Cogill IFAD Knowledge Sharing 3 March, 2014
- 2. Malnutrition Food-related causes of malnutrition Poor diet intake Disease-related causes IMPROVE DIET QUALITY QualityQuantity Low diet diversity
- 3. Our research: agricultural biodiversity and dietary quality Focus areas Approach • Whole-diet approach • People or community centred • Landscape focus Nutrient dense diets Household dietary diversity Sustainable diets Nutrition-sensitive value chains
- 4. Genetic diversity Selection & cultivation Harvest Value addition Marketing Final use Better varieties Best practices Value chain approach Enhanced use Better nutrition Incomes and livelihoods Novel food items Recipes (old/new) Quality standards Nutrition awareness Enabling policies Promotion Education Agronomic performance & nutrient content Improved technology Efficient value chains
- 5. >400 Musa cultivars screened for nutrients 12 varieties with Retinol Activity Equivalents > 333 µg/100gDW under evaluation in Eastern Africa Acceptability test (organoleptic): with farmer group of 165 women and 165 men participants Banana-based dishes evaluated for nutrient content and bio-accessibility Capacity building (400 community change agents and key stakeholders reached) 5000 plantlets being multiplied for dissemination to 400 farmers Results: Nutrition in banana-based farming systems
- 6. The impact of our work: the case of minor millets 40-60% increase in grain yield Improved diversity in the market Foxtail millet Little millet Barnyard millet Proso millet Kodo millet Finger millet
- 7. Varieties screened for nutritional content Products from these varieties developed and marketed Crop Calorie (K Cal) Protein (g) Fiber (g) Ash (g) Calcium (mg) Phospho rus (mg) Iron (mg) Rice (brown) 362 7.9 1.0 1.3 33 160 1.8 Wheat 348 11.6 2.0 1.6 30 306 3.5 Maize 358 9.2 2.8 1.2 26 348 2.7 Finger millet 336 7.7 3.6 2.6 350 250 3.9 Foxtail millet 351 11.2 6.7 3.3 31 290 2.8 Little millet 329 9.7 7.6 5.4 17 220 9.3 Barnyard millet 300 11.0 13.6 4.5 22 280 18.6 Proso millet 340 10.6 12.2 3.2 24 206 3.5
- 8. Metrics for sustainable diets Indicators for measuring dietary diversity and nutrient consumption Metrics and indicators
- 9. Building local capacity Community-driven approaches and solutions Access to an established network of local actors Development opportunities
- 10. Our target population groups

- Also focus on crops holding comparative advantages to grow in marginal areas, where poor communities are most challenged- selection based also on nutritional benefits. Many of the so called underutilized species hold great promises in terms of nutrition security, adaptation and income- many other non material benefits also related to their continued use..
