Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority. |
Challenges the fishing ports of Ghana, notably Sekondi Port include the congestion and the deteriorating efficiency due to the increase of users and decreasing quality of catch due to the shortage and ageing of landing facilities, fish handling sheds and ice-making facilities. The Government of Ghana made a request to Japan for an extension of the wharf, construction of additional breakwater, cold storage and ice-making facility at Sekondi Fishing Port in 2010 in order to overcome these challenges. In response the Government of Japan conducted a survey for the project to promote efficiency and improvement of Ghana's fishery sector. The survey was to examine the need, relevance and urgency of the proposed project. |

Can organic agriculture elaborate a scientifically based, resource-efficien and agroecological approach to low-input farm management? This review examines the literature from temperate regions, with a particular emphasison Canadian and USstudies that relate to environmental and ecological impacts of organic agriculture with respect to (i )soil organic matter storage, (ii) soil quality/soil health, (iii) nutrient loading and risks of off-farm nutrient and agrochemical losses, (iv) biodiversity and (v) energy use and global warming potential. The context and implications of semi-arid conditions and low soil P levels, common to many organic farms in North America, and wide spread adoption of genetically engineered crops in conventional production, is also... |

Os sistemas agro florestais são efetivos em melhorar e conservar a qualidade do solo. As árvores presentes nestes sistemas absorvem nutrientes de camadas profundas do solo e aportam continuamente material orgânico, gerando impactos à superfície e abaixo da superfície do solo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar características envolvidas na cidagem de nutrientes de espécies arbóreas, visando contribuir para a formulação de estratégias de manejo de sistems agroflorestais. As espécies selecionadas para o estudo foram o ipê-preto (Zeyheria tuberculosa), o açoita-cavalo (Luehea grandiflora), o mulungu (Erythrina verna), o fedegoso (Senna macranthera), o ingá (Ingá subnuda), o papagaio (Aegiphila sellowiana) e o abacate (Persea americana). A produção de... |

Neste ensaio, é feita a pergunta de quem deve, pode e quer promover a saúde no campo hoje. Foi eleito, prioritariamente, o campo da ciência e o das políticas públicas como foco de diálogo. Configurou-se oito lições aprendidas sob a perspectiva dos direitos à saúde a um ambiente saudável, aqui compartilhadas: (1) para além de um risco químico isolado, a relação entre agrotóxicos e saúde deve ser estudada no contexto da modernização agrícola conservadora; (2) é necessário e urgente que se proceda ao desvelamento dos agravos à saúde relacionados aos agrotóxicos; (3) o Estado tem tido significativa eficácia no apoio ao agronegócio e significativa ineficácia nas políticas sociais de garantia de direitos dos trabalhadores e da população; (4) setores da sociedade... |

Die Schulverpflegung in Deutschland befindet sich im Wandel von einer ergänzenden hin zu einer Vollverpflegung mit einem warmen Mittagessen. Längere Schulzeiten, die Ausweitung der Ganztagsschule und das Interesse an gesunder Ernährung für Kinder und Jugendliche treiben diese Entwicklung an. Allerdings ist die Schulverpflegung aufgrund der zersplitterten Zuständigkeiten sehr heterogen und unübersichtlich, es gibt eine Vielfalt an Angeboten mit unterschiedlicher Qualität. Im vorliegenden „discussion paper“ wird untersucht, welche Möglichkeiten für eine nachhaltige Schulernährung sich daraus ergeben. Der Fokus liegt auf dem Einsatz von Bio-Lebensmitteln in der Schulverpflegung. Bio-Produkte in der Schulverpflegungen erfordern einen zusätzlichen Auf-wand... |

With this booklet I attempt to make my master thesis usable in practice. It translates my theoretical study on social learning in farmer groups into practical hands-on advices. I hope my advices will help create fruitful learning environments for existing farmer groups, for those who assist farmer groups in development, and as inspiration for new farmer groups. This booklet is a continuation of my master thesis, written in 2012: Social Learning in Farmer Groups – Field Study in the Rwenzori Region, Western Uganda. The thesis is based on four months of fieldwork, working with three Farmer Family Learning Groups (FFLG). I was assisted by Sustai-nable Agricultural Trainers Network (SATNET) and Organic Denmark (OD). It is dedicated to those who work on FFLG’s,... |

GMO moratoria are in place in Australia, in some states and not in others. Is co-existence possible between organic farming and GMO farming? And if so, under what circumstances? Australia has more certified organic land than any other country, with a reported 12.0 million hectares of certified organic land compared to the world total of 37.5 million hectares. In a recent court case, an organic farmer lost his organic certification because of GMO contamination. A total of 325 hectares of his 478 hectare farm were contaminated with GM canola blown from a neighbouring property, and this resulted in the decertification of most of the farm. The organic farmer sued his neighbour, a GMO farmer, on the basis of nuisance or negligence, he sought damages for loss of... |

The complexity of organic farming requires farmers to have a very high level of knowledge and skills, but exchange on organic farming techniques remains limited. In order to increase productivity and quality in organic arable cropping in Europe, the thematic network OK-Net Arable under Horizon 2020 has the aim to improve the exchange of innovative and traditional knowledge among farmers, farm advisers and scientists. An online platform for knowledge exchange has been created, offering innovative education and end-user material as well as communication between stakeholders. A number of specific tools – providing information about how to put existing knowledge from research and practise into use – have been chosen. They are presented on the platform with the... |

Heute sind die unterschiedlichsten Akteure im Biosektor aktiv. Auch ihre (oft unbewussten) Antriebe und Wertorientierungen im Biolandbau sind sehr unterschiedlich.. Dies führt zu Spannungen. Für viele Menschen im Biolandbau verliert ihre Lebensform an Lebensqualität, weil sie mit der Anpassung an äussere Ansprüche ihre eigentlichen Werte und ihren inneren Kompass verlieren. Dies führt zu einer Sinn- und Zukunftskrise in der biologischen Landwirtschaft Hier sind tragfähige und glaubwürdige Zukunftsperspektiven und Umsetzungswege gefragt. Ziel des Workshops mit ForscherInnen und BeraterInnen ist erstens, die eigene innerliche Basis zu reflektieren und die eigenen Wertkonflikte vorzubringen. Zweitens wollen wir nach tragfähigen Zukunftsbildern schauen. Um... |

Organic agriculture versus genetically modified organisms. Are these two agricultural technologies destined for co-existence or conflict? This is a case study from Australia about two neighbours in conflict - Michael Baxter who planted GM canola and Steve Marsh his organic neighbour. A timeline of the events before and after the contamination events of 2010 is presented. GM canola was approved for Australia in 2003 - but the WA government promptly put a moratorium in place. That changed when the WA government changed in 2010. Baxter immediately took advantage of the exemption to grow GM canola. What followed was ... the contamination ... the decertification ... the legal action. There are four elements to this case: nuisance, negligence. injunction &... |

Although the market for organic products has been growing in Austria for a few years, the rising competition of so called regional, natural or sustainable products should be taken seriously. One solution in times of “conventionalisation” of organic farming could be higher ethical standards in organic farming and more effective communication of ethical values, as it has already been practised by a great number of medium-sized and large enterprises under the name of “Corporate Social Responsibility” (CSR). CSR refers to all services that are beyond legal requirements, performed on a voluntary basis. This article discusses the topic CSR and similar approaches in the Austrian organic sector on the basis of 30 interviews with Austrian organic farmers and... |

Organic farming in Germany benefits from a large number of different national and regional political measures, in addition to a positive development of general demand of organic products. Despite these favorable conditions, however, fewer and fewer farms convert to organic farming. With the aim to expand the organically farmed land in Germany, the BMEL initiated the "Strategy for the Future of Organic Farming". One topic is to examine the possibilities of the development and improvement of the current organic subsidies policy. A nationwide survey amongst organic farms will also take into consideration the support of organic farming from the farmers’ point of view. In this context, 218 organic farms from all over Germany who participated in a... |

As unidades de paisagem na agricultura dos povos Ticuna e Cocama, no alto rio Solimões, são caracterizadas por arranjos produtivos e formas de gestão dos recursos naturais. Caracterizar essas práticas de base agroecológica, os resultados paisagísticos e as possibilidades de sua aplicabilidade regional foram os objetivos dessa pesquisa, realizada em duas localidades: Novo Paraíso, na ilha do Bom Intento, e Nova Aliança, ambas no município de Benjamin Constant, Amazonas. A organização social e econômica dos povos Ticuna e Cocama é fundada no parentesco e na apropriação comunal dos recursos naturais existentes, incluindo os espaços para o extrativismo. As unidades familiares, apesar da fraca vinculação com o mercado e suas regras, têm na lógica da... |
