    Episode Five: Farmer Field Schools
    Radio script
    2012
    Also available in:
    Radio script. The Farmer Field School (FFS) is a participatory tool for technology transfer which brings together 20 to 25 men and women farmers who are willing and able to learn. They meet once a week throughout an entire crop cycle (of a winter season) to follow training according to the Farmer Field School methodology. The farmers must observe all the interactions around a plant, identify the potential and constraints and test solutions, given production constraints, having first carried out an exploratory survey. At the end of this process, participants are asked to choose the technical approach that is best suited to alleviating these constraints. In this way, the FFS promotes the learning and uptake of new agricultural production techniques which take account of farmers’ capacities, but also of the possibilities offered by local conditions.

    地理标志食品的营养与健康潜力 2022
    Also available in:
    在很多重要文件中，传统食品、饮食和粮食体系在大众营养状况中所发挥的重要作用得到了认可。社会经济、生物多样性、自然资源可利用性及地理标志的使用都会影响营养和饮食，但关于前三项的研究比最后一项要多得多。在促进健康饮食和遏制非传染性疾病方面，地理标志食品的潜力值得探索。本书共有五个案例，研究了五种已注册的地理标志食品的营养潜力。 本书探讨了生产过程和最终产品营养成分之间的关系。事实上，这些食品的营养特性在很大程度上可以归因于它们独特的成分和生产过程，与其地理来源密切相关。对营养成分的分析既需要考虑普通的营养素，还要考虑生物活性化合物，后者通常不会出现在营养成分表中。 本书也探究了一些与个案研究对象相似但不一定认证了地理标志的食品。在个案研究后，本书第三部分简要探讨了三个专题：规范地理标志食品以保持和提高营养质量、地理标志食品在健康饮食中的作用以及食品成分测定。第四部分讨论了本书的局限性，并提出了以地理标志食品促进健康饮食的建议。很多受地理标志保护的传统食品是发酵食品，因此，附录涉及了益生菌、益生元和肠道菌群。
