Nutrition and Health: Harnessing pulses for linking agriculture and nutrition and ensuring food security
This document summarizes research on linking agriculture and nutrition to ensure food security in Ethiopia. It finds that while legumes play an important role in diets, challenges include persistent hunger, population growth, and climate change. Studies examined the relationship between socioeconomics, gender, and nutrition, finding that women's roles in pulse production are less valued culturally. Workshops increased knowledge of pulses' importance for productivity and nutrition. Research also found that processing techniques like soaking and germination helped retain minerals in dishes. Moving forward, the document recommends further evaluating and scaling nutrition interventions, engaging farmers, and fostering links between agriculture, nutrition, and health.
