19.12.2012 |
Financial Chronicle |
| The concept of “Food Security Floor” was proposed by the high-level panel of experts (HLPE), which provides scientific advice to the committee on world food security (CFS) of the UN. I am the current chairman of HLPE and our proposal is the adoption of a bottom line approach in public policies relating to achieving the goal of sustainable food security for all in every country. The food security floor will indicate the minimum steps needed for ensuring that every child, woman and man will have an opportunity for a healthy and productive life through access to balanced diet, clean drinking water, sanitation and primary healthcare. It is in this background we should examine the National Food Security Bill 2011, currently under the consideration of a parliamentary committee. The need for effective steps to overcome the widespread malnutrition prevailing in our country will be obvious from the position we are occupying now in the world in terms of the per cent of population affected by chronic and ... |

UN's global agriculture report on track: small farmers need investment and support
|
6.12.2012 |
Oxfam International RSS main feed |
| The UN Food and Agriculture Organization has just published it's The State of Food and Agriculture, 2012 report, on investment in global agriculture. The FAO says that in developing countries, farmers themselves are the largest investors in agriculture and governments and donors have a special responsibility to support them. This is our reaction:
Oxfam's GROW campaign spokesperson, Luca Chinotti said:
" The FAO is sending exactly the right message to governments and donors today. Small-holder farmers are the real "blue chip" investors in global agriculture. They need to be treated as such.
