This document summarizes findings from a study on diet transformations and food environments in West Africa. It analyzes data from Mali, Nigeria, and Senegal. Key findings include:
- Diets are changing rapidly due to urbanization and income growth, with increased consumption of fruits, dairy, and meat.
- Households consume a more diverse set of food groups, especially in urban vs. rural areas and higher income groups.
- Households rely heavily on markets for food due to a wide variety of retail outlets like open-air markets and supermarkets.
- Food expenditures account for a large share of household budgets, especially in rural and lower income groups.

Impact simulation of ecowas rice self sufficiency policyAnatole GOUNDAN
Rice is a strategic commodity for food security in West Africa. Its consumption has grown rapidly over time as a result of population growth, urbanization, and increasing purchasing power. Dependency on imported rice exposes the region to external shocks stemming from the global market. Given its economic and social importance, most countries in West Africa have developed a national strategy for rice development alongside their agricultural sector-wide policy. In addition, the Economic Community of West African States is actively supportive of national strategies under a regional offensive to boost rice production and meet the challenge of rice self-sufficiency in the region by 2025. Our analysis uses economic models to forecast rice consumption, and then simulates the economywide impacts of achieving rice self-sufficiency in West Africa. Results show that per capita consumption of rice is expected to increase from 44 to 53 kilograms on average between 2011 and 2025. Total rice consumption is projected to reach around 24 million metric tons by 2025, increasing by 74 percent over the period 2011–2025. The required average annual increase in production (8 percent) is estimated to be twice that of consumption (4 percent) to achieve the self-sufficiency goal by 2025. Under the regional policy, the rice sector average annual value added growth rate is expected to double, from 6 to 12 percent. As a consequence, rice imports decline and exports improve rapidly to cover the cost of imports by 2025. The regional gross domestic product growth rate is expected to increase by an average of 0.4 percentage point per year relative to the baseline scenario over the period 2015–2025. As real consumption expenditures increase by 14 percent for rice and 4 percent for all food products, the policy is expected to improve food security in the region.

Biofortified Sweetpotato as a Key Contributor to Sustainable Agri-Food System...Francois Stepman
Presentation by Jan Low Principal Scientist, International Potato Center (CIP) Nairobi, Kenya.
14-18 June 2021. AERAP Science organised the Africa-Europe Science and Innovation Summit, which aimed to enhance science and innovation cooperation between Africa and Europe.
The presentation was shared at the recent annual meeting of the American Society for Plant Biologists, and outlines the barriers to agricultural technology adoption in developing countries and discusses the potential role of biofortification in helping people get access to more nutritious food worldwide.
This presentation was given by Alan de Brauw, Senior Researchers in the Markets Trade and Institutions Division at the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). Alan also serves as Flagship Leader of Value Chains for Enhanced Nutrition for the CGIAR Research Program on Agriculture for Nutrition and Health (A4NH). More information can be found at a4nh.cgiar.org.
This is a talk I gave as part of the "Nourishing 9 Billion" symposium at the 2014 American Society for Plant Biologists Annual Meeting in Portland, Oregon. I talked first about how major grains are actually quite available in an aggregate sense-- moreover there is plenty of unexploited capacity. A larger problem is a relative lack of availability of nutritious crops -- legumes and pulses, fruits, and vegetables, and among specific populations animal source foods. Two ideas to reduce micronutrient deficiencies, being promoted by the CGIAR program Agriculture for Nutrition and Health, are to promote nutritious crops and foods through value chains, as well as to promote micronutrient intakes through biofortification.

You are aware that National Food Security Act (NFSA) has been enacted with a view to ensure food security in India and Bihar is one of the state where ensuring food security is a major challenge. A better understanding of NFSA in the context of Bihar will be helpful for effective implementation of the NFSA. The main objective of the policy consultative workshop is to deliberate on the options and strategies for making NFSA efficient and effective in Bihar.

Strategic Options for agriculture and development in Malawi by Andrew DorwardIFPRIMaSSP
This paper considers potential strategic options for agriculture and development in Malawi in the context of the country’s current situation and the prospects the country faces. After briefly reviewing current national and sectoral policy and potential roles of agriculture in economic growth, we set out the current situation in order to consider strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
We conclude that a major emphasis is needed on supporting changes that reduce the rate of population growth and promote capacity for adaptation and resilience to climate change. Rapid increases in the productivity of agricultural land and labor and rural incomes will be critical to this (alongside increased education and empowerment of girls and women). There are, however, difficult potential trade-offs to negotiate (for example between increased irrigation and reduced inflows into Lake Malawi) and these need further consideration.
From this analysis we derive a set of nine strategic principles and two operational principles that we suggest could helpfully stimulate and guide strategy development that addresses the opportunities and threats facing Malawian agriculture. The application of these principles is illustrated by indicative consideration of policy and investment options focusing on development of different commodities and (broadly defined) resources. Consistent implementation of coordinated and consistent sectoral and inter-sectoral policies is critical for achievement of the desired growth and diversification impacts.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

19. Conclusions
Rapid changes in food consumption patterns.
• The frequency of food group consumption differs more widely across
expenditure quintiles than between rural and urban areas.
• The frequency of consumption of milk/milk products/eggs,
meat/fish/seafood, and fruits increases the most with urbanization and
income.
• Grains and grain products remain regularly consumed by most
households.
The number of food groups consumed over a 7-day period went up in Mali and
Nigeria from 2014/15-2015/16 to 2018/19. On average, urban and wealthier
households consume more food groups.
20. Conclusions
Food away from home is an important consumption source
Wide variety of food retailing outlets reflect increases in demand for
diversified and convenient foods.
Both urban and rural households rely on food retailing outlets. The reliance
on food retailing outlets goes up with total household expenditure.
Open-air markets remain important for food purchases.
21. Implications
Diets are changing as are food environments.
More and better data, ideally representative at the national level, is needed to
understand the scope and scale of those changes and assess their impacts,
particularly on food and nutrition security.
• What types of food is purchased, where, and by whom?
• What types of food is consumed away from home, where, and by whom?
• What is the availability, affordability, and quality of food supplied across food retailing
outlets?
• Does a wider variety of food retailing outlets translate into more, safer, healthier, and
cheaper food for consumers?
• Are healthy convenient foods available (and affordable)?
• Where are located the different food retailing outlets?
• Are poorer or rural households more likely to live in “food deserts”?
