Lawrence Kiguro: Climate change response initiatives by World Vision Kenya #B...World Agroforestry (ICRAF)
World Vision Kenya is implementing various climate change response initiatives to promote sustainable food security. These include on-farm rainwater harvesting techniques like subsoiling and zay pits, drought-tolerant crops, organic farming, agroforestry, improved goat and poultry rearing, beekeeping, small-scale irrigation, and greenhouse farming. Challenges include the labor intensiveness of some techniques, changing attitudes, sustainability issues, and short-term funding.
This document outlines an assessment of climate-smart agriculture (CSA). It discusses indicators for measuring CSA's contributions to food security, adaptation, and mitigation. It provides examples of successful CSA projects from FAO and others, including those focusing on improved rice cultivation techniques in Vietnam, drought-tolerant maize varieties in Africa, and livestock insurance programs in Kenya and Ethiopia. The document concludes with instructions for a breakout group exercise to further assess the CSA potential of case studies.
Intensification of maize-legume based systems in the semi-arid areas of Tanza...africa-rising
This document summarizes research being conducted in Tanzania to intensify maize-legume farming systems in semi-arid areas. The research aims to increase farm productivity and improve the farming landscape. Key findings include:
1) Improved varieties of crops like maize, groundnuts, and pigeonpeas have increased yields compared to local varieties.
2) Integrated soil fertility management including fertilizer application has increased maize yields but response to nitrogen was low, indicating other limiting factors.
3) Soil and water conservation techniques like deep tillage and in-situ water harvesting improved yields compared to traditional practices.
4) Aflatoxin contamination was found in many crops sampled, presenting food
1. The document discusses farming systems and sustainable agriculture. It defines farming systems and lists their advantages.
2. Key components of sustainable agriculture are discussed, including soil conservation, crop diversity, nutrient management, and integrated pest management.
3. The three pillars of sustainability - economic, environmental, and social - are outlined. Benefits and disadvantages of sustainable agriculture are also provided.
Agriculture in developing countries must undergo a significant transformation in order to meet the related challenges of achieving food security and responding to climate change. Projections based on population growth and food consumption patterns indicate that agricultural production will need to increase by at least 70 percent to meet demands by 2050. Most estimates also indicate that climate change is likely to reduce agricultural productivity, production stability and incomes in some areas that already have high levels of food insecurity. Developing climate-smart agriculture is thus crucial to achieving future food security and climate change goals. This seminar describe an approach to deal with the above issue viz. Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) and also examines some of the key technical, institutional, policy and financial responses required to achieve this transformation. Building on cases from the field, the seminar try to outlines a range of practices, approaches and tools aimed at increase the resilience and productivity of agricultural product systems, while also reducing and removing emissions. A part of the seminar elaborates institutional and policy options available to promote the transition to climate-smart agriculture at the smallholder level. Finally, the paper considers current gaps and makes innovative suggestion regarding the combined use of different sources, financing mechanism and delivery systems.
The document reviews hydroponic fodder production and its value for livestock. It discusses the principles and methods of hydroponic production. Key benefits include reduced land, water and time requirements compared to conventional fodder production. Hydroponic fodder is also more nutritious, increasing livestock productivity through higher milk yields, meat gains, and overall animal health and performance. However, the initial capital costs of hydroponic systems can be prohibitive.
This document discusses sustainable pork production. It notes that population growth will require more food production in the future. Today's farmers are much more efficient, feeding 155 people on average compared to 26 people in 1960 using fewer inputs. The pork industry aims to safeguard the environment, animal well-being, public health, and natural resources. It has developed metrics to measure its sustainability performance over time in areas like carbon footprint, water footprint, and land use. The goal is to continuously improve practices to benefit people, pigs, and the environment.

This document discusses the impacts of climate change on food security. It outlines that food security depends on availability, access, and utilization of food. Climate change puts additional pressure on food systems from population growth, diet changes, urbanization, and competition for land and resources. The document then recommends policy responses that focus on more sustainable production, improving resilience, ensuring access to food for all, and supporting initiatives through infrastructure, trade, agriculture and more. It also discusses project investments and research that can strengthen production, engage markets, and provide climate and agriculture information. The main lessons are that food security has multiple factors beyond just production; climate change interacts with other pressures; and coordinated policy, investments, and research are

This document discusses new trends in vegetable production that can help overcome issues in traditional farming methods and increase yields. Some key trends discussed include organic farming, tissue culture, hydroponics, drip irrigation, tunnel farming, and off-season farming. Organic farming avoids synthetic chemicals and relies on biological processes, while hydroponics is a soilless system using nutrient solutions. Tunnel farming uses covered structures to control the environment, and drip irrigation applies water directly to plant roots. These innovative techniques can boost production sustainability and food security compared to traditional methods.
Richard Bramley - Yorkshire Farmer. Profiting from Sustainability Feedback Se...Stevencann1
Richard Bramley operates Manor Farm, a 500-acre farm in Kelfield that grows a variety of crops including wheat, barley, potatoes, sugar beets, oilseed rape, and industrial hemp. The farm uses cover cropping extensively to boost biodiversity, trap nutrients, reduce pollution, increase soil organic matter, and suppress weeds. Cover cropping provides many benefits to the farmer and environment with little downside and no extra paperwork. Bramley argues that sustainable farming is important as farms form the foundation of food and the environment, and that policy should support rather than hinder farmers' progress toward sustainability through sensible, effective, and coordinated regulation.
Sustainable agriculture land management wan mianaAkhuwat
The document discusses issues with conventional agriculture in Pakistan such as high input costs, low productivity, and environmental impacts. It proposes adopting sustainable agriculture practices like using organic fertilizers and biopesticides to increase yields while reducing costs and environmental damage. The document also describes a potential carbon credit project at Ranjha Farms which uses biogas from animal waste and other sustainable techniques, estimating it could generate over $33,000 per year in revenue from carbon offsets. Adopting such projects could help address Pakistan's energy and environmental challenges while improving livelihoods.

Overview of key research findings from the Global Food Security programme's Resilient Dairy Landscape project, presented to the Global Landscape Forum at COP26 on 6th November 2021
Main GHGs from agricultural lands are CH4 and N2O
GHG emission can be reduced by 60 % in 2050 through:
Removal of rice straws and through good management practices in paddy fields
Use alternatives to chemical fertilizer
CH4 reduction from livestock by improving feed quality and animal comfort
Reduce N2O emission in soils
Enhance C sequestration in paddy and rainfed uplands through ‘Evergreen Agro-ecosystem’ concept
Carbon stock in agricultural lands can be enhanced by improving land management practices
C sequestration in tea lands can be increased through: Agro-ecosystem approach; Crop diversification; Intercropping; Introduction of shade trees with optimum density; and Rehabilitation of old tea lands
C stock can be increased by 267 % by the year 2050 through Home Garden Intensification
If the proposed mitigation actions are implemented, the country will be able to achieve Net Zero by 2038.

Improved technologies for mitigating post-harvest food loss africa-rising
(i) High post-harvest losses of food lead to low incomes and productivity for farmers in Africa. Improved storage and handling techniques could help reduce these losses.
(ii) The study tested several technologies: collapsible grain dryers, mechanized shelling, and hermetic bags. These technologies reduced drying and storage losses, increased grain quality, and reduced labor costs.
(iii) Adoption of the technologies led to reductions in post-harvest losses of 15-84%, increases in additional food available per hectare of 2-45%, and savings in agricultural land use and higher incomes for farmers. Over 15,000 farmers have already benefited from using these improved post-harvest techniques.

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

livelihood vulnerability of the rural poor
CCar project
06/2022/NID054
6266-AF-EU-UNDP-ISGAP
2. Why Cricket farming?
• Emit low levels of greenhouse
gases.
• Resilience as cricket farming is not
directly affected by the poor
weather conditions
• Short life cycle, but high biomass
production, enhancing food
production and security
• Poses less risk of zoonotic diseases
• Feed conversion less that 2kg of
feed for 1 kg of cricket
• Quality for food and feed nutrition
3. Why Chaya gardening?
• Resilience as Chaya
gardening is not directly
affected by the poor weather
conditions
• Easy to replace and fast
growing
• Provide year-round fresh air
and green village
• Drought tolerant plants
• Nutritious plant for food
and feed
4. We have modified cricket pens that can be used on land and on water
Concrete block pen SMART board pen Floating pens during flooding 2022
5. Scaleup concept of CCar or Sustainability
1. Direct beneficiaries will share a partial of inputs to other farmers who actively
attending in training (cricket eggs for example, from 40 farms to 100 farms)
2. Original fresh cricket products produced by well-trained farmers following food safety
guidelines set by EU standard of food safety for insects-Special product-not enough
fresh cricket as demand
3. Partnership with Agro-Food enterprise from private sector-to respond for postharvest
of the cricket value chain
4. Cricket farming and Chaya gardening are the two commodities of friendly-
environment and can be adapted to current climate change
5. Cricket pen designed for floating when there is a flooding, thus farmers are still on-
going cricket farms
6. Chaya can be easy for re-planting if there is flooding
7. Both cricket farming and Chaya gardening require less water for long period of drought
6. Challenges-Lack of funding to support:
• 2 key experts in training on (i)-climate change concept, and (ii)-
household food nutrition
• Project final evaluation
•Agri-Food Enterprise’s involvement, some parts
of this (not all)
• University students’ involvement
