Book (stand-alone)Technical studyAquaculture and poverty: past, present and future prospects of impact 1999
Also available in:
No results found.There is increasing concern among development agencies that development should be socially as well as environmentally sustainable. A major question that was posed at the Donor Consultation is to what extent is aquaculture a poverty reducing technology? It is well recognized through a series of reviews, the latest being the Study of International Fisheries Research Needs for Developing Countries (SIFR) (World Bank et al, 1992), that there has been limited impact of most donor funded fisheries dev elopment projects in general. With respect to reducing poverty specifically, experience with projects in Africa and Latin America led Martinez-Espinosa (1992) to refer to rural aquaculture, small-scale aquaculture systems appropriate for the poor, as a “myth” and “no panacea for solving the problems of rural social emargination”. The purpose of this paper is to show that aquaculture can and does contribute to the sustainable rural livelihoods of poor farming households; and that it could contr ibute more widely to improving the welfare of the poor if appropriate approaches were implemented by development agencies. -

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookFood loss analysis: causes and solutions – The Republic of Uganda. Beans, maize, and sunflower studies 2019
Also available in:
No results found.This report illustrates the food loss assessment studies undertaken along the maize, sunflower and beans supply chains in Uganda in 2015-16 and 2016-17. They aimed to identify the critical loss points in the selected supply chains, the key stages at which food losses occur, why they occur, the extent and impact of food losses and the economic, social and environmental implications of the food losses. Furthermore, these studies also evaluated the feasibility of potential interventions to reduce food losses and waste.
