1 AVRDC-: Role of Horticulture in Poverty Alleviation Mubarik Ali Agricultural Economist
2 AVRDC-
3 Mission: Alleviate poverty and malnutrition in the developing world through increased production, marketing and consumption of safe vegetables
4 Poverty-A A Global Challenge About 1.1 billion people live on less than US$1 per day Another 1.6 billion lives between 1-2US$ per day
5 Poverty-A A Global Challenge Population (billion) Population living on under $1 a day Rest of the world East Asia Sub-Saharan Africa South Asia Year
6 Poverty-A Global Challenge Figure 2. Poverty map for less than one dollar a day Percentage of people
7 Poverty-A Global Challenge Poverty map for less than two dollars a day Percentage of people
8 Micronutrient deficiency- Another Global Challenge 2 billion affected by micronutrient deficiency 1.5 billion by iron deficiency million preschool children severely affected by vitamin A deficiency million deaths annually
9 Why Vegetables-Healthy Diets AVRDC Recommendation = minimum required level is 100 g per day or 73 kg per annum
10 Why Vegetables? Little hope from traditional agricultural production because of declining prices and reduced farm holding
11 Why Vegetables? Per capita vegetable availability Taiwan Japan Vietnam India Thailand Sri Lanka Malaysia Pakistan Philippines Indonesia Bangladesh Minimum required level Kg/capita/annum
12 Why Vegetables? Vegetable supply/cap/yr (Kg) 160 SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA Chad Uganda Mali Tanzania Togo Côte d'ivoire Senegal Nigeria Source: FAOSTAT data, 2005.
13 Why Vegetables An engine for economic growth Vegetables: Create jobs Generate higher incomes Alleviate malnutrition Improve learning capacities Improve role of women
14 Why Vegetables-Alleviate poverty A. Providing farm employment Crop Days/ha Vegetable Cereal Bangladesh Cambodia Laos North Vietnam South Vietnam Source: Ali and Abedullah, 2002

16 INPUT USE ON VEGETABLES Input use on vegetables versus cereals Input/Crop South Vietnam Laos Cambodia Bangladesh Pesticide (No. of spray) Vegetables Cereals Irrigation (No.) Vegetables Cereals Fertilizer (kg/ha) Vegetables Cereals Cash cost (US$/ha) Vegetables Cereals
17 ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF THE DIVERSIFICATION Resource use efficiency Crop/input S. Vietnam Laos Cambodia Bangladesh Land (US$/ha) Vegetables Cereals Labor (US$/labor day) Vegetables Cereals Water (% return on water cost) Vegetables Cereals Benefit-cost ratio (%) Vegetables Cereals
18 ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF THE DIVERSIFICATION Yield Technical efficiency Vegetable farmer Y 1 Y 2 Non-vegetable farmers Y 1 >Y 2 by 20% X Inputs
19 A. Efficient Nutrient Source Philippines Bangladesh Rice Beef Chicken Fish Carrots Pakchoi Pepper Soybeans English Spinach Horse Radish 4.87 * Jute Leaves Amaranth * 8.61 Efficiency = Nutritive value (US$/100g) / Average price (US$/100g) * Implies that the commodity was not consumed in the survey area

29 Integrated Pest-Management 1. Biological control 2. In-host plant resistance 3. Cop Management strategies 4. Optimizing the chemical use
30 Economics and Nutrition 1. Dynamism in the horticulture sector 2. Ex-ante and ex-post Impact of vegetable and vegetable technologies (income, employment, nutrition, etc.) 3. Role of vegetables in the farming system (peri( periurban, rice-based, upland). 4. Prioritization of horticulture research. 5. Methods to enhance bioavailability from vegetables
31 CROP MANAGEMENT AVRDC Develop sustainable vegetable technologies which can enhance small farmers income without damaging environment (Organic Agriculture)
