Household food security level essentially is the ability of households meet food sufficiency. These capabilities are greatly influenced by many complex factors, but  generally  associated  with  changes  in  behavioral  aspects  of  food  production, consumption and allocation of households resources. The purpose of this study was to analyze  the  level  of  household  food  security  based  on  low  land  rice  irrigated.  The study was conducted in three districts of rice production center in the province of Bali in 2012, i.e. Tabanan district, Gianyar and Buleleng. Data collection was conducted through interviews with 216 respondents. Household food security was measured by cross classification of the share of food expenditure and consumption of energy. The results  of  the  analysis  showed  58.33  %  of  households  have  a  lower  share  of  food expenditure  and  41.67%  household  have  higher  share  of  food  expenditure.  In aggregate  86.57%  of  farm  households  is  quite  in  consuming  energy  and  13.43% is less  in  energy  consume.  The  level  of  household  food  security  of  farmers  in  the aggregate 49.07% of the household were categorized as secure, 37.9% as vulnerable, 8.79% as insufficient, and 4.17% as insecure. There is a correlation between the level of  household food  security  with  age  of  housewife,  level  of  education,  farm  size  and household income.

Credit has been considered to play a pivotal role in the agricultural development of Nepal. A large number of institutions are involved in the disbursement of credit to agriculture. In this backdrop, the present study has examined the performance of agricultural credit and has identified the determinants of increased use of credit at the farm household level in Nepal. The study was based on survey data consisting of 107 samples collected randomly from the Chitwan district. The study has revealed that the quantum of credit availed by the farming households is affected by several socio-demographic factors which include caste, economically active population, food sufficiency, and membership in an organization. The research revealed that if the household is Brahmin/ Chettri, the probability of borrowing loans decreased by 32% as compared to other castes. Similarly, if the household’s economically active population increased by one unit, the probability of taking a loan increased by 16%. The results also show that, if household food sufficiency increased by one month the probability of taking loans decreased by 4 % but if the household head is a member of an organization, the probability of taking a loan increased by 28%. The congenial environment to increase the involvement of the household head to an organization like cooperative and farmers group, increasing the food self-sufficiency through productivity enhancement program and creating awareness on credit utilization helps to increase credit use performance in Agriculture.

This research analyzed the situation of sharecroppers and their food sufficiency level in forty Tharu community households in Dumraha village of Sunsari. Household interviews, focus group discussions, key informants survey and observations are led to fulfill the research objective. Among ninety-one landless sharecroppers forty households were selected for the study applying the equation. The landlessness Tharu people are compelled to do agriculture or non-agriculture labor besides farming. The Tharu communities are engaged as sharecropper to face the challenges of food self-sufficiency. Some of the sharecroppers are found to be the previous owner of the land. The practice of sharecropping is fully based on mutual relationship between landlord and sharecroppers, where they agree in sharing the output equally. Sharecropping has helped the landless Tharus to be food self sufficient. Nepalese Journal of Development and Rural StudiesVol. 14 (Joint issue) (1&2), 2017, Page: 36-42

Abstract Background Adolescents experience a multitude of vulnerabilities which need to be addressed in order to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In sub-Saharan Africa, adolescents experience high burden of HIV, violence exposure, poverty, and poor mental and physical health. This study aimed to identify interventions and circumstances associated with three or more targets (“accelerators”) within multiple SDGs relating to HIV-affected adolescents and examine cumulative effects on outcomes. Methods Prospective longitudinal data from 3401 adolescents from randomly selected census enumeration areas in two provinces with > 30% HIV prevalence carried out in 2010/11 and 2011/12 were used to examine six hypothesized accelerators (positive parenting, parental monitoring, free schooling, teacher support, food sufficiency and HIV-negative/asymptomatic caregiver) targeting twelve outcomes across four SDGs, using a multivariate (multiple outcome) path model with correlated outcomes controlling for outcome at baseline and socio-demographics. The study corrected for multiple-hypothesis testing and tested measurement invariance across sex. Percentage predicted probabilities of occurrence of the outcome in the presence of the significant accelerators were also calculated. Results Sample mean age was 13.7 years at baseline, 56.6% were female. Positive parenting, parental monitoring, food sufficiency and AIDS-free caregiver were variously associated with reductions on ten outcomes. The model was gender invariant. AIDS-free caregiver was associated with the largest reductions. Combinations of accelerators resulted in a percentage reduction of risk of up to 40%. Conclusion Positive parenting, parental monitoring, food sufficiency and AIDS-free caregivers by themselves and in combination improve adolescent outcomes across ten SDG targets. These could translate to the corresponding real-world interventions parenting programmes, cash transfers and universal access to antiretroviral treatment, which when provided together, may help governments in sub-Saharan Africa more economically to reach their SDG targets.

Sari ruang terbuka diantara tanaman kelapa sawit belum menghasilkan dapat dimanfaatkan untuk budidaya tanaman pangan, khususnya  padi sebagai tanaman sela dalam rangka mendukung program ketahanan nasional. Penelitian dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk memperoleh dosis pupuk hayati yang berpengaruh paling baik terhadap pertumbuhan, hasil, dan karakter fisiologis tanaman padi yang ditanam pada pertanaman kelapa sawit TBM 1 serta melihat dampak penanaman padi sebagai tanaman sela terhadap pertumbuhan kelapa sawit. Percobaan dilakukan di Kebun Percobaan Ciparanje, Fakultas Pertanian, Universitas Padjadjaran, pada bulan Desember 2017 sampai bulan April 2018. Percobaan disusun menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) yang terdiri dari enam perlakuan dosis pupuk hayati, yaitu  0, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 mL/tanaman. Setiap perlakuan diulang empat kali sehingga terdapat 24 unit percobaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dosis pupuk hayati berpengaruh terhadap jumlah gabah isi, bobot gabah per tanaman, dan bobot gabah 100 butir yang di tanam pada pertanaman kelapa sawit saat tanaman belum menghasilkan (TBM 1). Dosis pupuk hayati 100 mL/tanaman cenderung memberikan pengaruh baik terhadap karakter morfologis dan fisiologis padi. Pertumbuhan tanaman kelapa sawit tidak dipengaruhi oleh budidaya padi sebagai tanaman sela.Kata kunci: karakter fisiologis, pupuk hayati, tumpangsari Abstract.

Poverty alleviation has always remained as a major challenge for overall development in Nepal and Sarangkot Village Development Committee (VDC) in Kaski district also is under such circumstances where tourism and other off farm economic activities would be the successful vehicles for overall development. Availability of better demographic conditions, sustainable agricultural production system and proper utilization of existing resources for the development of off-farm economic activities are the important livelihood assets. It is in this light this paper is trying to present the demographic conditions, land use pattern, agricultural production from the cultivated land, livestock raising and food sufficiency from the production of land in Sarangkot VDC. As the survey result indicated that the food sufficiency from the production of land is not sufficient in order to maintain the livelihood conditions of the local people. Therefore, this paper also deals about the available off-farm economic activities that are supporting for the economic welfare of the people.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ttp.v13i0.11543The Third Pole Vol. 13, 2013page : 22-32
