The study focuses on analyzing the food self-sufficiency village program at household level in Indonesia. The before and after analysis and food and security composite analysis at household level are used as tools. It involved comparing the implication and impact between indicators before and after the implementation of policy. Quantitative data were used to compare major indicators and qualitative data for minor indicators. In general, the impact of the DMP Programme on the villages was positive. The level of poverty in each village has been significantly reduced by 8-40% after the introduction of the programme. Composite food security analysis at household level shows the positive impacts of DMP Programme implementation. This is shown by several indicators, including the rise of 4-7% availability, reduction in poverty by 8-40%, and decrease in people working fewer than 15 hours per week by 10-20%.

AbstractRussia’s food policy has been defined by the quest for food security for more than a decade, which in the Russian context includes import protectionism, self-sufficiency, and import substitution, marked by the adoption of Food Security Doctrines in 2010 and 2020. This chapter first investigates the impact of food security policy on domestic production. Food security policy has combined with an increase in state support for domestic production, leading to notable increases in output and self-sufficiency for selected commodities. The chapter also examines the impact of food security on agri-food exports, which have become a priority since 2018. Although Russia has become a leading exporter of wheat, the influence of food security is seen by the introduction of export quotas on grain starting in 2020. Despite protectionism, Russia has not withdrawn from the international food market but rather is an active and significant player as both food importer and exporter.

This chapter evaluates food security policies and extension policies to the achievement of targets and the results of a development programme such as Food Self Sufficiency village (DMP) used Participatory Poverty Assessments (PPA). The output obtained is information that is an evaluation of how the policy was planned, initiated, and implemented. Participatory Poverty Assessments (PPA) monitoring and evaluation analyse the outcome and impact of the DMP Programme. The output of the PPA process from this chaper is the agricultural policy formulated in terms of practical ways of approaching poverty problems from a local perspective. The success of alternative policy options applied by local government such us Physical, Human Resources, Institution development at the grassroots level should be adopted at the national level. It should represent the best example of a case of successful programme implementation at the grassroots level which can then be used in formulating national policies and strategies.

<p>Program Gerakan Tanam Cabai (Gertam Cabai) dilatarbelakangi oleh fluktuasi harga cabai yang berlangsung tiap tahun. Program ini bertujuan membantu penyediaan cabai secara berkelanjutan pada tingkat rumah tangga. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengkaji sejauh mana pengaruh Gertam Cabai terhadap kemandirian pemenuhan kebutuhan cabai tingkat rumah tangga di Kota Bogor dan Jakarta. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah statistik deskriptif dan impact analysis. Pada metode impact analysis dilakukan pengukuran nilai indikator sebelum dan setelah intervensi program pada dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok yang mendapat intervensi program (Kelompok Aksi) dan kelompok yang tidak mendapat intervensi program (Kelompok Kontrol). Pada masing-masing kelompok dilakukan penghitungan selisih nilai indikator pada saat impact dan baseline. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa program Gertam Cabai belum memberikan pengaruh terhadap pemenuhan kebutuhan cabai tingkat rumah tangga. Hal ini terlihat dari: (1) tidak adanya perbedaan volume pembelian cabai antara sebelum dan sesudah Gertam Cabai pada kelompok penerima, dan (2) tidak adanya perbedaan volume pembelian cabai sesudah periode program tersebut antara kelompok penerima dan non penerima. Hal ini disebabkan karena banyak tanaman cabai yang mati, cabai yang dibagikan tidak sesuai dengan preferensi konsumen, dan cabai merupakan komoditas yang bersifat inelastis. Terdapat beberapa hal yang perlu diperhatikan apabila program itu masih akan dilaksanakan, yaitu: (1) jenis cabai dalam program itu agar disesuaikan dengan preferensi konsumen, dan (2) pembangunan sistem dan tatanan kelembagaan untuk memastikan keberlanjutan program meliputi sistem pembagian benih, penentuan kelompok penerima, pendampingan pra dan pasca pembagian benih, serta pembekalan teknis budidaya kepada kelompok penerima.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong></p><p>Gerakan tanam cabai; Rumah tangga; Impact analysis</p><p><strong>Abstract </strong></p><p>Chilli planting program was motivated by the fluctuation of chili price every year. The objective of this program was to assist the household level for having sustainable supply of chilli. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of chilli Planting Program on the self sufficiency of household chilli needs in Bogor and Jakarta. The method of analysis used is descriptive statistics and impact analysis. In the impact analysis method, the indicator measurement before and after the program intervention was done in two groups: the group receiving the program (Action Group) and the group that did not participate in the program (Control Group). The next step is to calculate the difference between the indicators value at impact and baseline on each group. The results showed that chilli planting program has not affected chilli self sufficiency at household level. This can be seen from: (1) there is no difference in the volume of chilli purchasing before and after chilli planting program in the action group, and (2) there is no difference in the volume of chilli purchasing after chilli planting program period between action and control group. This is because a lot of chilli plants were dead, the chili was distributed not in accordance with consumer preferences, and chilli is an inelastic commodity. Some suggestions that should be considered if there is a continuation of the chilli planting program are (1) distributed chilli type has to satisfy household preferences, and (2) the program should be equipped by simultaneous development of system and institutional arrangement to ensure its sustainability, includes a system for distributing seeds, determining beneficiary groups, providing pre and post seed distribution, and providing technical training to the recipient groups.</p><p> </p>

Abstract. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has the largest water deficit in the world. It also has the least food self-sufficiency. Increasing food imports and decreasing domestic food production can contribute to water savings and hence to increased water security. However, increased domestic food production is a better way to achieve food security, even if irrigation demands an increase in accordance with projected climate changes. Accordingly, the trade-off between food security and the savings of water and land through food trade is considered to be a significant factor for resource management, especially in the MENA region. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the impact of food trade on food security and water–land savings in the MENA region. We concluded that the MENA region saved significant amounts of national water and land based on the import of four major crops, namely, barley, maize, rice, and wheat, within the period from 2000 to 2012, even if the food self-sufficiency is still at a low level. For example, Egypt imported 8.3 million t yr−1 of wheat that led to 7.5 billion m3 of irrigation water and 1.3 million ha of land savings. In addition, we estimated the virtual water trade (VWT) that refers to the trade of water embedded in food products and analyzed the structure of VWT in the MENA region using degree and eigenvector centralities. The study revealed that the MENA region focused more on increasing the volume of virtual water imported during the period 2006–2012, yet little attention was paid to the expansion of connections with country exporters based on the VWT network analysis.

The Impact

Background: The war in Syria has left millions struggling to survive amidst violent conflict, pervasive unemployment, and food insecurity. Although international assistance funding is also at an all-time high, it is insufficient to meet the needs of conflict-affected populations, and there is increasing pressure on humanitarian stakeholders to find more efficient, effective ways to provide assistance. Objective: To evaluate 3 different assistance programs (in-kind food commodities, food vouchers, and unrestricted vouchers) in Idleb Governorate of Syria from December 2014 and March 2015. Methods: The evaluation used repeated survey data from beneficiary households to determine whether assistance was successful in maintaining food security at the household level. Shopkeeper surveys and program monitoring data were used to assess the impact on markets at the district/governorate levels and compare the cost-efficiency and cost-effectiveness of transfer modalities. Results: Both in-kind food assistance and voucher programs showed positive effects on household food security and economic measures in Idleb; however, no intervention was successful in improving all outcomes measured. Food transfers were more likely to improve food access and food security than vouchers and unrestricted vouchers. Voucher programs were found to be more cost-efficient than in-kind food assistance, and more cost-effective for increasing household food consumption. Conclusion: Continuation of multiple types of transfer programs, including both in-kind assistance and vouchers, will allow humanitarian actors to remain responsive to evolving access and security considerations, local needs, and market dynamics.

Agricultural Use

Growing prosperity in the South is accompanied by human diets that will claim more natural resources per capita. This reality, combined with growing populations, may raise the global demand for food crops two– to four–fold within two generations. Considering the large volume of natural resources and potential crop yields, it seems that this demand can be met smoothly. However, this is a fallacy for the following reasons. (i) Geographic regions differ widely in their potential food security: policy choices for agricultural use of natural resources are limited in Asia. For example, to ensure national self–sufficiency and food security, most of the suitable land (China) and nearly all of the surface water (India) are needed. Degradation restricts options further. (ii) The attainable level of agricultural production depends also on socio–economic conditions. Extensive poverty keeps the attainable food production too low to achieve food security, even when the yield gap is wide, as in Africa. (iii) Bio–energy, non–food crops and nature ‘compete’ with food crops for natural resources. Global and regional food security are attainable, but only with major efforts. Strategies to achieve alternative aims will be discussed.
