DocumentEconomic analysis of forestry market by introducing positive list system (A case study of walnut market 2019)
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.The Korean Government has been introduced and implementing the PLS system for all forestry products, agricultural products, and marine products from January 2019, including all of imported foods. This shall be used within a certain standard only for pesticides registered for each crop, and the uniform standard (0.01 ppm) shall be applied to pesticide MRLs in Foods. In other words, the food safety of people will be improved by strictly managing pesticides whose risks have not been verified from the stage of crop production and import. Replacing pesticides currently used in with registered pesticides or prohibiting them can have an negative effect of production. In terms of supply with the price and cost relationship, PLS is likely to increase pesticide prices, and then increase of production costs, and then finally, overall increase in market prices; and with respect to the imported food market PLS will possibly increase prices for the imported products to meet PLS standards. Forestry trade of 2020 is relatively decreased about –5.2%($8.43 billion) by $8.89 billion in 19 years. Looking at the walnut market (producer, consumer) welfare analysis results from the implementation of PLS as of 2018, the supply increase benefit from the fall in the nonconformity rate of PLS system implementation was estimated at KRW 22,655,000.

DocumentCase Study on Commodity Chain Analysis: Irrigated Rice Chain of the Niger’s Office (Mali): Financial and Economic Account 2005
Also available in:
This module illustrates a case study regarding the Commodity Chain Analysis (CCA). It belongs to a set of modules which discuss how to carry out CCA through a step–by-step procedure. The user is introduced to a real situation where he has to build and analyze a commodity chain. The case study contains five exercises based on a database provided in a spreadsheet, containing all relevant information (e.g, yields, hectares per agent etc). The first exercise allows the user to familiarize with the f unctional analysis of a commodity chain. The second exercise aims to practise the flows analysis. The third one helps experts to use the production-trading accounts which are the real foundations of the CCA. The fourth one allows us to build the analysis model based on the accounts of individual agents. Finally, the fifth one illustrates how to use this model to simulate scenarios. -

No results found.Meghalaya, a North Eastern state of India with its economy tied to natural resource-base and climate- sensitive sectors as agriculture, water, forestry. Encroachment of forest land for agricultural activity, overexploitation of biodiversity, unsustainable agricultural practices (slash & burn) and non-scientific mining resulted in habitat degradation and pollution. India Water Foundation, as development partner with Meghalaya Basin Development Authority (MBDA) under Integrated Basin Development Livelihood Program designed on Knowledge Management, Natural resource Management, Entrepreneurship Development and Good Governance through demand driven partnership madeefforts towards Ecosystem restoration, linking forest, agriculture and water as most of economic value depends on nature and its services. Forest plays an indispensable role to conserve ecological balance and biodiversity restoration and indigenous people worship sacred groves, preserve flora and fauna biodiversity and bamboo reserves dedicated to deities in Garo, Khasi and Jaintia hills served as water catchments to fulfil domestic, agricultural, customary needs. Green Mission promoted protection of catchments forests, improved forest & water foot print, diversified farmer's livelihood, income and food security. Opportunities from social to economic forestry prospered state's economy. Adapting to temperature and weather conditions, entrepreneurs cultivated tea, fruits, flowers, spices and medicinal plants & had market linkages, connectivity, cold storages and financial inclusion. Climate resilient practices like re-wilding, adaptive management augmented sustainable green cover and restored water-land-biomass balance, promoted carbon sequestration and water-energy-food security nexus.
