Baobab: Mother of the Sahel

by: NourishingthePlanet

Mon Aug 23, 2010 at 10:42:55 AM PDT

In this regular series, crossposted from the Worldwatch Institute's Nourishing the Planet, we profile African indigenous crops that can improve food security and protect the environment.

Baobab  The basic needs for human survival include food, water and shelter.  Baobab, a tree indigenous to the semi arid regions of sub-Saharan Africa can provide all three, and more. Baobabs can be found in areas from the Senegal coast to northern South Africa, and Madagascar, where seven out of the eight species occur.

The baobab's leaves, fruit and seeds are all edible.  In West African countries, including Ghana and Burkina Faso, leaves are commonly ground up and used in soups, and for condiments and sauces served with yam, cassava, maize, millet and sorghum.  The leaves are high in protein and contain a wide spectrum of essential amino acids. They are high in lysine, which is often missing in the daily diets of poor populations who consume mostly cereals and tubers, and little meat. As these leaves are also high in vitamin A, frequent consumption should be encouraged in pregnant women and children as it can help prevent blindness and birth defects resulting from vitamin A deficiency.

Mexico Diaries, Day 11: Pesticides

by: Jill Richardson

Wed Aug 11, 2010 at 10:58:33 AM PDT

This diary series covers my trip to the Mexican state of Jalisco to study the effects of NAFTA and the Green Revolution on subsistence farmers in rural areas. The trip began with a few days in Guadalajara, the largest city in the state. Then we headed to the rural town of Cuquio, about an hour and a half away, for the remainder of the trip. On the 11th day, we drove back to Guadalajara to spend our last day there. At breakfast, we discussed heading to one of the many agrochemical stores in Cuquio to check out the pesticides on our way out of town.

Green Revolution Technology Harms Poor Farmers

by: Jill Richardson

Wed Aug 11, 2010 at 09:50:01 AM PDT

Recently, I had a piece up on Alternet called The Ploy to Promote Genetically Engineered Seeds and Pesticides to Poor Mexican Farmers Is Impoverishing Their Communities. Unlike my daily diaries of the trip, in this piece, I was more analytical about what I saw and what that means for the big picture of helping end hunger among subsistence farmers around the world. Specifically, I examined the Green Revolution technologies that are being pushed in the efforts for a Second Green Revolution.

This morning, I was pleased to see that Devinder Sharma linked to my piece on his blog. He added his own comments, with a damning editorial on the international push for another Green Revolution:

While the 2nd generation-environmental impacts of Green Revolution have played havoc with the natural resource base across continents, the destruction of the farm lands, and the plight of the dying farmers, is being hastily buried under the aggressive launch of the Second Green Revolution. To avoid the finger of suspicion pointing towards them, the international scientific community in collaboration with the agribusiness industry and the policy makers, are in a desperate hurry to create a smokescreen that hides the great tragedy.

I especially appreciated this line by him:

Those who promoted Green Revolution, it is now becoming clear, were not aware of the hidden design. The complete take over of agricultural research and education across the globe by the US land grant system came in handy to programme the scientific mindset. The USAID has to be admired the way it helped change the scientific brains to the virtues of the intensive farming systems as the only way forward.

Also linked to on his blog are a few other pieces worth reading:
1. Michelle Obama Can Lead a Global Movement for Organic Food
2. Feeding India is Becoming a Difficult Task

Large Scale Land Investments Do Not Benefit Local Communities

by: NourishingthePlanet

Mon Aug 02, 2010 at 10:29:26 AM PDT

Crossposted from the Worldwatch Institute's Nourishing the Planet.

This is the third blog in a series about the increasing prevalence of large-scale land acquisitions, or land-grabs.

In April 2010, more than 120 farmers’ groups and non-governmental organizations all across the world signed a statement declaring their opposition to the guiding principles endorsed by the World Bank, the FAO, IFAD and UNCTAD on “responsible” land investments.

The trip began with a few days in Guadalajara, the largest city in the state. Then we headed to the rural town of Cuquio, about an hour and a half away, for the remainder of the trip.

Mexico Diaries: Day 8, Part 3 - Trip to the Edge of the World

This diary series covers my trip to the Mexican state of Jalisco to study the effects of NAFTA and the Green Revolution on subsistence farmers in rural areas. The trip began with a few days in Guadalajara, the largest city in the state. Then we headed to the rural town of Cuquio, about an hour and a half away, for the remainder of the trip. This is my third post about our 8th day, when we visited an incredibly remote village tucked into the side of a mountain, overlooking a gorgeous valley.

Mexico Diaries: Day 7 - Visit with a Corn Expert

by: Jill Richardson

Thu Jul 29, 2010 at 14:56:15 PM PDT

This diary series covers my trip to the Mexican state of Jalisco to study the effects of NAFTA and the Green Revolution on subsistence farmers in rural areas. The trip began with a few days in Guadalajara, the largest city in the state. Then we headed to the rural town of Cuquio, about an hour and a half away, for the remainder of the trip. The seventh day was Sunday in a very religious Catholic country so we didn't go out to visit a village. Instead we had an agronomist who specializes in Mexico's maiz criollo (landrace corn), Juan Alba Quesadas, come visit us. Here's what we learned.

Mexico Diaries: Day 6 - A Village with Agrochemicals

by: Jill Richardson

Wed Jul 28, 2010 at 20:21:55 PM PDT

This diary series covers my trip to the Mexican state of Jalisco to study the effects of NAFTA and the Green Revolution on subsistence farmers in rural areas. The trip began with a few days in Guadalajara, the largest city in the state. Then we headed to the rural town of Cuquio, about an hour and a half away, for the remainder of the trip. The sixth day was our second visit to a "rancho" - a small village outside of Cuquio. Unlike the first family we visited, this family uses hybrid seeds and agrochemicals.

Getting the Most of Out of Groundnuts in Senegal

by: NourishingthePlanet

Mon Jul 26, 2010 at 14:25:23 PM PDT

Cross posted from Worldwatch Institute's Nourishing the Planet.

This is the first blog in a series about Action Aid's work in Senegal.

They are found on nearly every street corner in Western Africa-freshly roasted groundnuts are sold in small plastic bags or by the handful as a quick, protein-rich snack. These small nuts-which are technically legumes-have had a big influence on Africa. "Groundnuts," says Moussa Faye, of Action Aid Senegal, "have made the wealth of this country." But he explained that they've also created "poverty because of a crisis in groundnut sector after it was liberalized" by the government. One of Action Aid's priorities in Senegal is to help groundnut farmers collectives find better ways to grow, process, and sell groundnuts and groundnut products.

New Cassava Varieties Save Zanzibar's Food Security

by: NourishingthePlanet

Fri Jul 23, 2010 at 15:05:03 PM PDT

By Catherine Njuguna

Millions of cassava farmers in eastern and central Africa are in distress from viral cassava diseases that are sweeping across the region and ravaging their crops. But their counterparts on the popular tourist island of Zanzibar are undergoing a quiet revolution using new disease-resistant and high-yielding varieties that were introduced three years ago.

Native African Vegetables Could Help Solve Food Crises

by: NourishingthePlanet

Tue Jul 20, 2010 at 12:29:29 PM PDT

( - promoted by NourishingthePlanet)

This is the first post in a regular series about African indigenous crops that can improve food security and protect the environment.

Ever heard of the Bambara Bean? How about Nyimo or Vignea Subterranea or the African Groundnut? No matter what you call it, this little bean, which is indigenous to tropical Africa, is highly overlooked by scientists, development agencies, and humanitarian programs, even though it packs a lot of nutrition. The bean may have originated in Mali, but it's also popular in Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, and Cameroon. It is now widely distributed and grown in Asia, parts of Northern Australia, and South and Central America and is often found for sale on street corners in Johannesburg.
