GUIDE QUESTIONS and RESPONDENT INPUTS
When you think about advancing an SPI for agrifood systems in your country, what is the greatest challenge that the FAO guidance, such as presented here, can help address? What suggestions do you have to make the guidance more practical and useable at the country level?
My central drive is to obtain Scientific guidance for the optimum / maximum utilization of agri-wastes. I focus on cellulosic agri-wastes, biomass, which are typically in the millions of metric tonnes. Material flow economic modelling is needed to recognize that the sunk resource to produce crops are producing vastly underutilized and often deleteriously managed products. There should be no “waste”, only optimized resource utilization. The planet is over-stretched in providing resource for human economic activity, yet all the science that permits biomass to be converted into nutrition, renewable energy, building materials, and other valuable products is ignored, including the processes of up-valuing by biological and technological means, of industrial development with education and employment, and of replacement of many unstainable products that are globally used, with sustainable ones.
2. Are the sections/elements identified in the draft guidance the key ones to strengthen SPIs at the national level? If not, which other elements should be considered? Are there any other issues that have not been sufficiently covered in the draft guidance? Are any sections/topics under- or over-represented in relation to their importance?
Agriculture in every country, based on multiple crops and farming techniques, contains many sectors which can be dealt with independently but also holistically. Policy is the opportunity to install effective Material flow economic modelling which has to be initiated and managed at National level at least.
3. In order to make the guidance as concrete as possible, we are including numerous boxes/cases studies on real-life use cases. In this context, please contribute 300-450 words on examples, success stories or lessons learnt from countries that have/are strengthening SPIs for agrifood systems, including addressing asymmetries in power, collaboration across knowledge systems, connecting across scales, capacity development activities and fostering learning among SPIs.
I think it most productive to produce multiple stories and lessons not learned regarding biomass management.
4. Is there additional information that should be included? Are there any key references, publications, or traditional or different kind of knowledges, that are missing in the draft and which should be considered?
Please understand I don’t have time to write a book to integrate the above inputs into SPI most effectively. However, if windows must be opened, please consider opening the Material Flow economic model and biomass windows.
