Food systems profile for Amhara Region, Ethiopia
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180470
Abstract
Food systems encompass the entire range of actors and their interlinked value-adding activities involved in the production, aggregation, processing, distribution, consumption, and disposal of food products. Food systems influence diets by determining what kinds of foods are produced, which foods are accessible both physically and economically, and peoples’ food preferences. Sustainable food systems are critical for ensuring food and…

Yet, long before laboratories and synthetic chemicals, farmers had their own laboratories — nature. Across different regions, as evident amongst smallholder farmers in Makueni and Kiambu Counties in Kenya, communities developed sophisticated ways to protect crops using local…
