1 Case study: Integrated farming systems with fish in Vietnam Ngo Tien Dung, Lien Terryn and Raf Somers Vietnam Belgium Dairy Project (BTC MARD)
2 Outline A challenging time Agriculture in Vietnam Integrated farming systems with Fish in Vietnam Multiple Biogas applications
3 Challenging time Increasing world population Climate change natural disasters Grain price Depletion of fossil fuels and minerals prices
4 The need for food Currently 1 billion people are underfed or imbalanced diet The world needs to produce more food World population to be expected 8 to 10 billion by 2020
5 World population counter at IRRI

9 Global warming: How the ruminant s contribution...? Ruminants produce 20-30% of global methane Methane Is a potent greenhouse gas contributes approx 20 % of global warming
10 Monoculture systems is sustainable? Has led to increased productivity Thanks to improved technology and genetic selection, but.. Animals: fed with large amounts of concentrates lost ability to consume large amounts of roughages. excreta becomes a waste product. Crop: Extensive use of herbicides and pesticides Crop by-products under-utilised Soil erosion
11 Time to panic? Not yet... But time to re think agriculture policies To be more efficient To be more environmentfriendly To make better use of by products and local resources To produce no or less waste... To be sustainable!
12 Sustainable agriculture? Ørskov (2008) on AAAP Conference: The world can double its food production The world can more than double its animal production But unlikely to be driven by fossil fuel so-called labour efficient monoculture systems rather by integrated farming systems that match with available resources use environment friendly energy sources. In this respect, we like to introduce some experiences from VN
13 AGRICULTURE IN VIETNAM
14 Vietnam Vietnam is a tropical country located in Southeast Asia with a monsoon climate The total area: km 2 Two big river delta s Mountainous areas: ¾ (75%) total area 7 million ha agriculture land (4 million used for rice)
15 Population: 86 million in 2007 (70% in agriculture) High population density (260 people/km 2 ), Land for agriculture: <0.1 ha arable land per capita GDP: 640 USD/capita (2005) and 21% contributes from Agriculture
16 Vietnam s s Agriculture Before 1986: Vietnam - a long historical period of being grain deficit Government run agricultural coops 1986: Doi Moi (Reform) Family as main prod. Unit Land owned by farmers In 1989: producing enough rice to not only be self-sufficient but also to export.
17 Export of agricultural products Rice picture 1st in pepper 2 nd in rice 2 nd in coffee 2 nd cashew nut 3 rd in rubber 9 th in tea
18 Livestock population (million heads) Livestock % increase over 17 years Buffaloes % Cattle % (In which dairy cattle) % Pigs % Poultry % Source: General Statistical Office (2007)
19 Buffalo Swamp buffalo use as for draught power Imported from India
20 Cattle Local cattle (Yellow cattle) Laisind cattle (Yellow cattle x Sindhi cattle)
21 Dairy cattle x HF F1 x HF F2 x HF F3
22 Pig Local breeds Crossbreds
23 Goat and sheep
24 Chicken Chicken: Local breeds Crossbreds and Exotic breed
25 Ducks Ducks: Local breeds Duck and Muscovy duck: Crossbreds and Exotic breed
26 MIXED FARMING SYSTEM WITH FISH 1. Garden Fishpond Livestock (VAC) 2. Forest -Garden Fishpond Livestock (RVAC) 3. Fish Rice - Duck What are children thinking and how to setup sustainable farming systems?
27 Integrated farming system VAC and RVAC systems are familymanaged, with practically all labor coming from the household 3 components: Garden (V) Fishpond (A) Livestock (C) 4 th component in mountainous area: Forest (R) 85-90% rural families maintain a garden and livestock, with 30-35% of these having fishponds In many villages, 50-80% families have the full VAC system 30-60% income come from the system; in many cases, it may be 100%
28 Why we introduced VAC and RVAC systems? To settle the farmers and reduce Slash and Burn AND deforest
29 To control soil erosion: Inter-cropping Made hedgerow and terrace land
30
31 To produce food and meat for home consumption To improve living standard and protect the environment Sustainable Agriculture farming systems
32 Relationships in VAC and RVAC systems in Vietnam Garden (V) Keep moisture and Control erosion Forestry (R) Manure and draught power Feed (cereals, straw and byproducts) Livestock (C) Householder VAC provides Food, meat, eggs, fish ) Feed for animal Gas and Electricity Feed for fish Fishpond (A) Human excreta Effluent, earthworm Biogas, earthworm
33 Garden component (V) Uses Draught power from animals Animal manure as fertilizer (direct or through biogas) Water from pond for irrigation Products Food, mainly vegetables and rice for home consumption Feed for animal and fish (forages) Surplus production can be sold in the market By products: Feed for livestock and fish Rice straw
34 Fish pond component (A) Uses Animal manure as feed (direct, or through biogas) Garden (by-) products and Waste from household as feed Products Fish for home consumption, local market and export By products water for irrigation fertilizer for garden (Mud in pond) Fish by-product use as animal feeding supplementation
35 Livestock component (C) Uses Crop and crop byproducts from garden and Aquatic plant from the pond as feed Waste from household Forest as grazing field Produces Meat for home consumption and local market Draught power By- products: Manure as fish feed, as fertilizer and input for biogas Income generation Surplus production can be sold in the market
36 Forest component (R) Uses Manure as fertilize Produces Wood Foliage as feed for animal (goat) By products: Keeps soil moisture controls erosion grazing field
37 Household component Uses Rice, Vegetables Meat, Eggs Fish Gas & Electricity Produces Labor By products: Kitchen waste for livestock and fish feed Excreta as input for biogas
38 Biogas component Uses Manure from livestock and human excreta Produces Energy (gas and electricity) By products: Effluent as fertilizer and as fish feed AND reduces mosquito's, diseases Improves hygiene and sanitation.
39 Special attention The important use of agriculture by products as animal feed Earth worms Scavenging and grazing
40 Utilization agriculture product and by product as feed for animals Rice straw for cattle
41 Rice bran, cassava foliage and root
42 Corn stover, pine apple, molasses
43 Earth worms Earthworm as protein source for poultry After earthworm decomposed manure compost is excellent fertilizer (earthworm seeds)
44 Grazing Of course you see cattle, buffalo, sheep and goat grazing anywhere...
45 Grazing duck
46 Scavenging chicken
47 But, in Vietnam, pigs also graze and or feed forages
48 The income from VAC and RVAC systems? From V Keep moisture and Control erosion Forestry (R) From A From C Crops (V) Manure and draught power Feed (cereals, straw and byproducts) Animals (C) From R Householder Feed for animal VAC provides Food, meat, eggs, fish ) Gas and Electricity Feed for fish Human excreta Fish pond (A) Effluent, earthworm Biogas, earthworm
49 From Garden (V)
50
51 From pond (A)
52
53 From livestock (C) products
54
55
56 From Forest (R)
57 The economics With VAC (n=150farms) Without VAC (n=150farms) Products Produce Consumption % Produce Consumption % Meat (kg) Fish (kg) Eggs Vegetables (kg) Fruit (kg) Income (1000VND/month) % Source: Khoa, L.V USD=11,000 VND
58 Success of (R)-VAC systems Provide diversified food for home consumption Improve the overall nutrition of the family Increase the household income Contributing to reducing hunger and poverty alleviation Better utilization of local resources Protect natural resources and the environment. Labor is created in rural areas which reduces migration to the cities
59 VAC at commune level? VAC systems are a success at family level Resources are used within the family Plan to implement VAC at commune level By-products of one family become resource for other family
60 Rice - Fish Duck systems Ducks Control the weeds and insects Fertilize the paddy fields Fish Eat weeds Consume duck faeces
61 Benefit for rice production Reduced cost production No need for herbicides and insecticides Fertilizer Labor for weeding Improved soil fertility Increased rice production Food and environment safety Increased benefit
62 Benefit for Duck Production Lower feeding costs
63 Benefits for Fish production Lower feeding costs Efficient land use
64 The economics (Million VND/ha) Systems Rice Duck-Rice Duck - Fish - Rice Layer Duck Fish - Rice Inputs: -For rice For duck For fish Total Input Outputs: - From rice From duck From fish Total Output Net benefit Rice Net benefit Duck Net benefit Fish Total net benefit Source: Minh et al., (1 USD=15,000 VND)
65 Fish rice systems
66 Integrated duck-rice system in the rice field
67 Rice - Duck Fish systems
68 Multiple benefits of biogas
69 What is biogas? Anaerobic fermentation of manure Gas (60% CH 4 & 40% CO 2... ) Cooking & Light BUT also Generating electricity Biogas = Cheap & Clean Renewable Energy
70 Extra benefits of biogas Proper Manure Managament Improved hygiene & sanitation Less mosquitoes & flies Reduced pollution Reduction Green House Gasses (GHG) Bio-Slurry = Optimal Fertiliser Reduces the use of chemical fertiliser
71 Benefits for Households Cheap and clean energy Improved health, hygiene & sanitation Indoor air (smokeless) Less mosquitoes & flies, less diseases Reducing workload more time for other activities Reduced costs such as fertiliser
72 Benefits for environment
73 Biogas Plants in Vietnam > systems 2 models: Fixed-dome plant Plastic bags (Nylon, PE, HDPE)
74 Green Circle introduced by Vietnam Belgium Dairy Project Manure Effluent Gas Fertigation
75 Sprinkler irrigation Mix bio-slurry with irrigation water Uniform distribution More efficient than raw manure Modified gasoline pump works on biogas!!! How to work in the field Transport effluent to the field by container Storage gas in plastic bag to run pump
76
77 Benefits for animal High Quality Forages High nutrient content Very productive High leaf/stem ratio higher eatable fraction Higher feed intake Less concentrate Healthier cows More milk More income
78 Conclusions The governments agricultural policy focuses on specialisation and industrialisation. Vietnam aims to be an industrial country by Hopefully, mistakes made in other parts in the world can be avoided in the process of transformation.
79 Vietnam, as well as other countries should build on the lessons learned from successful integrated farming systems, but scaling up these smallholders models is a challenging task. Agriculture systems will always be selected because of economical efficiency, but their sustainability will depends on how to use of local resources and being environment-friendly with no/less waste
