Combating Hidden Hunger through Bio-fortificationCIAT
This document summarizes efforts to combat hidden hunger through biofortification of staple crops. Biofortification is the process of improving the nutritive value of crops through conventional breeding, genetic engineering, or fertilization. Research is focusing on increasing iron, zinc, and pro-vitamin A in beans, a staple crop in parts of Africa. Several biofortified bean varieties have been developed and released with higher nutrient levels. Studies are exploring how cooking and food preparation impact nutrient bioavailability from beans. Efforts are also underway to test if intake of biofortified beans can improve micronutrient status and nutritional outcomes in vulnerable populations. Challenges and opportunities for adoption, scaling up, and integrating biofortification
Millet is a group of small-seeded grasses that are widely grown as cereal crops around the world, especially in developing countries in Asia and Africa. Millet is favored for its high productivity and ability to grow in dry, high temperature conditions with a short season. While millets are grown in many places, their origin is likely in tropical western Africa where the greatest diversity exists today. Millet was an important prehistoric crop in many societies before the rise of other grains like rice.
The document discusses India's proposal to observe 2023 as the International Year of Millets, which was approved by the UN. Millets are one of the oldest crops and were first domesticated in India. India is the largest producer and consumer of millets globally. Millets are nutritious and beneficial for health as they are gluten-free and have a low glycemic index. The document outlines India's initiatives to promote millets and address challenges in processing, marketing, and increasing the MSP for millets.
This document discusses Ragi (finger millet) cultivation in India. It provides information on the potential and cost of Ragi production, processing methods, value and supply chains, constraints to cultivation, and a SWOT analysis. Specifically, it notes that the per acre yield of Ragi is 10-12 quintals, the total cost of cultivation for one acre is Rs. 1300, and that processing involves cleaning, washing, and milling the grains. It also outlines the different players in the Ragi value chain and discusses gender roles and challenges in Ragi cultivation. Key constraints mentioned are the traditional methods used, lack of improved varieties, and absence of mechanical processing. The SWOT analysis highlights Ragi's nutritional value but also

This Powerpoint Presentation shows the Millets as a Super-food, rather than a diet fad. Are millets a superfood, offering a plethora of health benefits, or are they merely a passing diet fad? Millets are not just a diet fad; they are a superfood in the truest sense. They offer a wide range of health benefits, are environmentally friendly, and have a long history of nourishing people around the world. Embracing millets in our diets is not a passing trend but a step towards a healthier and more sustainable future for ourselves and our planet. So, let us recognize the potential of millets and incorporate them into our meals, not as a fleeting fad, but as a long-lasting and beneficial dietary choice.
This document discusses climate smart agriculture and why it is needed. It notes that population growth will increase food demand by 60% by 2050 while climate change is already impacting agricultural productivity. This poses risks to food security and livelihoods, fueling social issues. Climate smart agriculture aims to make farming sustainable and resilient to climate change through increasing productivity, adapting to impacts, reducing emissions, and using agriculture for mitigation. The approach integrates social, economic and environmental goals to provide sustainable livelihoods, food security, and poverty eradication.
The document describes ICRISAT's holistic approach to agricultural research and development. It focuses on sustainable intensification through diversifying farms, introducing new crop varieties and technologies, and facilitating market access. The approach is participatory, builds capacity, integrates communications, and monitors impacts. It aims to empower women and integrate nutrition.

ICRISAT Big ideas for partnership portfoliocropreg
1. Smallholder farmers in dryland regions rely mainly on rainfed agriculture for their livelihoods. Climate change is increasing the risks they face from more variable rainfall patterns.
2. The document proposes several "Big Ideas" to improve rural livelihoods and promote climate resilience in these regions. These include developing climate resilient communities, sustainably managing natural resources using proven models, and breeding new drought-tolerant varieties of dryland cereals and grain legumes.
3. One proven model discussed is the Bhoochetana program from India, which achieved major increases in crop yields and agricultural incomes through soil and water conservation practices, use of improved seeds and fertilizers, and farmer training.
Time for action: RBF Jakarta 2017 Outcome Statements and Recommendations Global Initiatives
Every year, the world population grows by 70 million, which means 70 million more people to feed by an agriculture sector beset by the challenges of shrinking cultivatable farmland and over-stretched water supplies. These challenges will be compounded by climate change.
A Smart Food initiative has been developed with the aim to mainstream Smart Food – bringing diversity in diets and on the farm. This is to make a major breakthrough in overcoming malnutrition and rural poverty, and being more sustainable on the environment.Ensuring smallholder farmers and rural communities
are pulled out of poverty and hidden hunger- This will require a concerted effort working with rural health workers, connecting farmers to the value chain and advocacy for research and development and supporting policies.
