Promising Aquaculture Technologies and Innovations for Transforming Food Systems Toward Low Emission Pathways in Kenya: A Review

december, 2022
Kenya

This work aimed at (1) reviewing published documents and reports to identify TIMPs with the potential for scaling to reduce GHGE, (2) identifying the constraints and challenges faced by different value chain actors in scaling aquatic food system TIMPs from the angle of low emission development, (3) identifying potential social, economic, and environmental co-benefits and spillover effects from scaling the TIMPs, and (4) conducting a stakeholder consultation in Kisumu County, Kenya, to map out aquaculture value chains and identify sources of emissions, and identify promising TIMPs for scalin

Cloud-based crop type mapping for Nandi County, Kenya

Kenya

Crop type mapping is essential to agriculture applications, including yield estimates, crop planting acreage statistics, agricultural market predictions, and land use change analysis that support relevant decision-making. Since 2008, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) has produced the annual Cropland Data Layer (CDL) with 108 crop types and 26 other land-use types for the CONUS Climate Console at 30 meters spatial resolution.

december, 2022
Tunisia

The objective of this report is to analyze, mapping and select the main value chains with potential to integrate the agroecological principles in Tunisia. Based on the secondary data, rapid value chain analysis, focus group discussions at the living labs and participatory approach with the main stakeholders, three value chains were identified in Siliana and Kef governorates: olive oil, sheep meat and honey. The VC assessment according to agroecological principles conducted with the main actors places the olive oil VC as the major value chain with agroecological character.

The purpose of the workshop was to share and validate the findings of the scoping study carried out by WorldFish from March to July, 2023. The objective of the study was to assess through a gender lens how climate change affects the fishing communities in two riparian counties, specifically in Homabay and Migori counties, which are located along Kenya’s Lake Victoria Zone Region.

Why the data gaps in Indian aquaculture need to be addressed to contribute to its efficient and sustainable development

december, 2022
Malaysia

Identification of the data gaps can help determine the appropriate methods to improve aquaculture farm operation, production and market access, as well as community capacity. The data gaps can be addressed by
creating a national aquaculture database in collaboration with various stakeholders including government bodies, research institutes, private entities, and aquaculture farmers.

Business Model for Sheep Fattening in Ethiopia

december, 2022
Ethiopia

Sheep fattening is a practice that involves feeding and managing sheep for a specific time to increase their weight and improve their quality of meat production. In Ethiopia, particularly in rural areas, sheep fattening is a popular business venture among small-scale farmers. It provides an opportunity for farmers to generate income and improve their livelihoods. The practice is also important for meeting the increasing demand for meat in the country, which is expected to grow in the coming years due to population growth and urbanization.

Business Model for Community Based Sheep Breeding in Ethiopia

december, 2022
Ethiopia

Small ruminant community-based breeding refers to a breeding program managed and implemented by business-oriented livestock keepers, aiming to improve the genetic potential of their small ruminant populations. The community-based breeding program is well suited for intensive market-oriented farming and requires a small breeding flock. According to the Central Statistical Agency, Ethiopia's total sheep and goat population is estimated at 95.4 million, where 42.9 million are sheep and the remaining 52.5 million are goats (CSA, 2021).

Using free Wi-Fi to assess impact of COVID-19 pandemic on traditional wet markets in Hanoi

december, 2022
Global

Traditional wet markets are the main source of fresh food and the largest source of daily nutrient intake for citizens of Hanoi. Nevertheless, due to the lack of traceability and sales registration systems, food flows within these markets remain largely invisible. This makes it challenging to assess the impact of shocks, such as pandemics, on these markets. In this paper, we characterize the impact of COVID-19 by analyzing data from 25 Wi-Fi access points installed in five formally established wet markets.
