Download or read book White Gold The Commercialisation of Rice Farming in the Lower Mekong Basin written by Rob Cramb and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-03 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is about understanding the processes involved in the transformation of smallholder rice farming in the Lower Mekong Basin from a low-yielding subsistence activity to one producing the surpluses needed for national self-sufficiency and a high-value export industry. For centuries, farmers in the Basin have regarded rice as “white gold”, reflecting its centrality to their food security and well-being. In the past four decades, rice has also become a commercial crop of great importance to Mekong farmers, augmenting but not replacing its role in securing their subsistence. This book is based on collaborative research to (a) compare the current situation and trajectories of rice farmers within and between different regions of the Lower Mekong, (b) explore the value chains linking rice farmers with new technologies and input and output markets within and across national borders, and (c) understand the changing role of government policies in facilitating the on-going evolution of commercial rice farming. An introductory section places the research in geographical and historical context. Four major sections deal in turn with studies of rice farming, value chains, and policies in Northeast Thailand, Central Laos, Southeastern Cambodia, and the Mekong Delta. The final section examines the implications for rice policy in the region as a whole.

Book excerpt: Abstract: Case studies identifying and describing actual problem situations facing decision-makers trying to design, promote, and manage Third World nutrition programs are presented. Conceptual readings derived from research on nutrition programs present a comprehensive view of nutrition policy and management problems and issues. Half of the people in the developing world are malnourished (over 1 billion do not meet daily calorie requirements, with 895 million having calorie deficits exceeding 250 cal/day). Malnutrition is most prevalent in Asia (78%), followed by Africa (10%). Both continents have 60% of their population with 250 cal/day deficits. Material covered includes: international agencies and programs dealing with malnutrition; various nutrition programs and operating problems in specific countries; supplementary feeding programs and formulated foods; fortification; nutritional enhancement of corn via genetic breeding; attempts to improve nutrition via changing the food marketing system and the use of subsidies; combined nutrition-population-health intervention programs; and design and implementation of a national nutrition plan.
