LANSA hosts the 'Pulses for Addressing Malnutrition' session

LANSA supported a session titled, Pulses for addressing malnutrition

Development of Farming System for Nutrition intervention (FSNi) at crop level

In the face of changing climate, rural agricultural sector is under heightened pressure not only to increase food output, but also to address undernutrition. The FSNi approach (as elsewhere) intends to improve nutritional outcomes and dietary diversity in a rural population through agricultural production- for consumption (direct) or -for sale (indirect).

My choice or not?

Agricultural practices and interventions affects nutrition of women, children and the entire household through various pathways and it is interesting to note that women empowerment, though much neglected, has a significant role to play when it comes to improving nutrition.
