Développement agricole durable propice à la sécurité alimentaire et à la nutrition, y compris le rôle de l’élevage - Consultation virtuelle du HLPE pour définir l’axe de l’étude
Veuillez noter que le HLPE lance un appel aux experts qui souhaiteraient participer à l’équipe du projet pour élaborer ce rapport. L’équipe du projet sera sélectionnée à la fin janvier 2015 et travaillera de février 2015 à avril 2016. L’appel à candidature est ouvert jusqu’au 22 janvier 2015; pour en savoir plus, veuillez consulter le site web du HLPE www.fao.org/cfs/cfs-hlpe.
A) Contexte, tendances et défis
- Le rapport du HLPE présentera d'abord une évaluation critique des projections existantes de la demande future d'aliments, y compris les aliments d'origine animale. Il passera en revue les projections de la FAO et d'autres rapports de prévisions, notamment en ce qui concerne l'augmentation rapide de la demande de denrées alimentaires et d’ aliments pour animaux, d’huiles comestibles et de produits non alimentaires, y compris les hypothèses qui sous-tendent ces projections, sur l'évolution des régimes alimentaires ainsi que sur les pertes et le gaspillage d'aliments, et le commerce.
- Le rapport analysera ensuite les incidences (défis et opportunités) de ces tendances sur le plan de :
- la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition (en particulier, les carences en nutriments, l'obésité et les maladies chroniques), la réalisation du droit à l'alimentation, en faisant ressortir les considérations liées aux différences entre les sexes, ainsi qu’aux inégalités ;
- l'accès à la terre et aux ressources naturelles ;
- l'accroissement de la production et de la productivité agricoles ;
- le développement économique ;
- la santé de l'environnement et des écosystèmes, y compris le changement climatique et la biodiversité.
b) Parvenir à un développement agricole durable propice à la sécurité alimentaire et à la nutrition
- À la lumière de ces projections, le rapport passera en revue les défis en termes de durabilité auxquels sont confrontés les systèmes alimentaires et agricoles basés sur les culures et l'élevage, y compris le pastoralisme, dans différents types d’agroécosystèmes et pour différentes tailles d’exploitations intégrant les menaces pour la durabilité de ces systèmes, notamment les maladies animales, les ravageurs et les maladies ainsi que les besoins énergétiques.
- Le rapport déterminera les objectifs et les éléments d'approches durables de l'agriculture, y compris l'élevage, de façon à garantir la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition pour tous sans compromettre les bases économiques, environnementales et sociales de la sécurité alimentaire et de la nutrition des générations suivantes. Il identifiera également des priorités critiques (« points de basculement » qu'il faut absolument aborder et des objectifs essentiels. Il intègrera les trois dimensions de la durabilité et considérera les outils de mesure pertinents.
- Le rapport analysera les voies à suivre pour parvenir à des systèmes durables fondés sur les cultures et sur l’élevage, ainsi que les options permettant de gérer la transition vers des systèmes durables :
- étant donné le rôle joué par l’élevage comme moteur du développement de l'agriculture et du secteur alimentaire, en tant que levier de changements économiques, sociaux et environnementaux majeurs dans les systèmes alimentaires du monde entier, une attention particulière sera accordée au rôle de l’élevage dans ces voies à suivre
- l’étude considèrera les pratiques, y compris les pratiques agroécologiques, la diversification à tous les niveaux, ainsi que des perspectives plus larges allant des chaînes alimentaires aux systèmes alimentaires (y compris les modèles de consommation), les approches locales vis-à-vis des approches globales, le commerce et l'investissement.
- Le rapport définira les obstacles au changement, y compris en ce qui concerne les institutions, les organisations, les politiques et la gouvernance, et les moyens potentiels pour les surmonter.
- Il abordera également l'environnement propice requis pour déclencher ou accompagner la transition : le rôle des politiques publiques et des outils pour promouvoir et faciliter la transition vers des systèmes durables.
- Conclusions et recommandations en termes de politiques et d’actions.

Any sustainable agricultural development for food security and nutrition should seriously take into consideration that the 21st century will be an arid century with erratic and unpredictable rainfall (Philip K. Thorton et al. Agriculture and food systems in sub-Saharan Africa in a 4°C+ world. Phil. Trans. R. Soc. A, January 13, 2011 369:117-136). The decrease in growing season length and the increase in rain-fed crop failures will make many marginal areas, today used for subsistence agriculture, totally unusable. Furthermore in such areas it will not be possible to productively keep livestock species such as small ruminant and cattle. The potential catastrophic level of climate disruption will exacerbate local conflicts and population migrations and will certainly cause severe over-use, erosion and degradation of large areas. There should be massive emphasis on dromedary and camel keeping through: specialized training, creation of restocking herds and introduction of camel herds in suitable areas. All this accompanied by promotion and support toward nomadic/semi-nomadic life styles.
Bonjour à Tous. Les habitudes alimentaires locales sont une des causes de l'insécurité alimentaire dans les ménages au Cameroun. Du Nord au Sud et de l'Est à l'Ouest du pays, les disponibilités alimentaires en terme de racines, tubercules, inescte, feuilles... existent et peuvent améliorer significativement l'apport en oligo elements. l'etat de lieux de la nutrition devrait ressortir cet aspect de chose et proposer des solutions durables au niveau des ménages. pour
AGRICULTURE FAMILIALE DURABLE COMME MODELE D’AGRICULTURE EN AFRIQUE
There is no mention of addressing the biggest problems mineral depletion in soil across the Globe over 100 years.both livestock and the very crops they rely once entering the human food chain complete the circle creating nutrient deficient humans.The compromised immune system leaves everyone wide open to opportunistic viruses and diseases.Only a Country by Country fortification programme together with the banning of processed foods refined cereals et al.
Drastic measures regarding sugar use either banning completely or huge taxes levied on producers which could be paid directly to organisations dealing with obesity .Whilst this is happening enrichment of soils with zinc and selenium to protect the new generation of crops
I would like to show our interest to contribute to this study on behalf of the Coalition of European Lobbies for Eastern African Pastoralism (CELEP). CELEP is an informal advocacy coalition of European organizations, groups and experts working in partnership with pastoralist organizations, groups and experts in Eastern Africa. The Members of the Coalition work together to raise awareness to their national governments and EU bodies to explicitly recognize and support pastoralism (and the people that practice pastoralism: pastoralists) in the drylands of Eastern Africa. Currently, CELEP is composed of about 25 European members and 7 Eastern African Partner organizations and is currently managed by Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Belgium. Through CELEP, significant contributions regarding pastoralism could be given to nourish the report. The Coalitioncan offer insights from the ground, expertise, statistics and figures thanks to its structure composed of international NGOs, research institutes and East-African civil society organisations. In the annex you can find an important position paper of the Coalition which shows the importance of pastoralism and mobile livestock keeping.

I made a presentation titled ENHANCING PRODUCTIVITY TO SUSTAIN PRODUCTION AND NUTRITION SECURITY at the one day conference organized by the Chennai chapter of NAAS on 23rd November, 2014 at MSSRF Chennai.I am attaching the paper.
I have worked in the poultry field for approximately 4 years, while working towards my MA through New Mexico State. First and foremost, I am interested in contributing to the committee in whatever way possible. I will address this through the webpage accordingly.
In regards to sustainability and livestock agriculture, one area that would be interesting to consider is the discussion of the stigma 'animal/chicken byproduct meal' in pet foods, while continuing to want more all natural, and sustainable diets for our pets as well as ourselves. One major form of sustainability is the use of poultry and other animals that are either spent in their production means, or the utilization of animal byproducts that individuals in certain countries typically see as unappetizing. Many farms in the US have contracts or conduct businesses with rendering or live hauling programs that can euthanize and utilize these byproduct sources into things such as dog foods or animal meal or can even transport live animals to other countries or markets that would better utilize what we don't typically care to consume.
There is a huge disconnect in this sustainability practice and it needs to be addressed!
One of the questions that the study should focus is related with the role of water management policies in agriculture and food production. More specifically, how can we integrate the rising trend in water management, i.e. "water quality focus" with priorities of the developing nations which aspire to expand the areas under irrigation in order to keep up with the population pressures. This dichotomy, for instance, demonstrates itself even in several regions of the EU (in agriculture-based regions in particular) where rules of the Water Framework Directive, with its challenging full-cost-recovery principle, can be at odds with what most of the farmers are thinking as well as practically doing. Implementation of such policies could be counterproductive in settings where water users, mainly farmers, are unable to pay the new price tag on water. On the other hand, continued "wild" water-use and excessive groundwater use for irrigation could equally be disastrous for the sustainablity of the fields. Can we rely on "virtual water" for resolution of the problems associated with water-scarce regions and/or water-expensive settings? Multiple layers of governance, be they national, regional, local, international; adds more complexity to decision-making, and more difficult than that, to implementation of what has been decided. Reaching a balance among competing interests, competing water-uses etc., which are prerequisites for sound policies is not straighforward.
According to the Government of Iraq (GoI) Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability Analysis (CFSVA), 3 percent of the population are food insecure and an additional 22 percent are vulnerable to food insecurity without the Public Distribution System (PDS) and increasing continuously. The PDS provides each Iraqi citizen with a monthly food basket with a nutritional value of 2,200 k/cal per day, but suffers from general ineffectiveness and inefficiency, which means the population rarely receives the correct quantity at the right time.
The combination of immediate improvement in access to food, through short-term (CFW) assistance, and longer-term improvement in food availability and access through rehabilitation of livelihood assets and agricultural training and capacity building will result in sustainable improvements in the efficiency of food production and will reflect positively on the food security.
Agricultural Inputs and Training: This component aims to improve food security and nutrition of the vulnerable rural populations in Iraq by increasing domestic production of agriculture products that will be brought about by provision of necessary inputs, capacity building and technical support. The FAO Mid-term Strategy for Iraq (2009-2014) and the CPF 2014-2017 have sought to curb the chronically high level of food security and malnutrition among the Iraqi population and combined with the severe impact of the ongoing drought in Iraq, the situation has further aggravated the situation of food availability and nutrition in Iraq. There is need for implementation of quick impact programmes.
