Enhanced stocking of
small fish species
Community groups,
500 households
managing water
bodies
Increased Fish Supply
Fish Production
•Large increases in nutrient-rich
small fish production
•3.5 fold increase in total fish
production in household ponds
•2 fold increase in fish production
from inland water bodies
•Increased production of dried
small fish from water bodies
Increased Fish Consumption
•Quantity and frequency of nutrient-rich fish consumed
- In women
- In children, starting with complementary feeding
from 6 months of age
Integrated Nutrition-sensitive Approach
• Vegetables (orange sweet
potato (OSP)) on pond
dykes and in homestead
gardens
• Promotion of consumption
of nutrient-rich fish and
vegetables and increased
dietary diversity
Integrated Nutrition-sensitive Approach
Strengthening family and community engagement
•Women and men in
decision-making and work
load sharing in production
•Women’s work load
•Intra-household food
allocation
•Men’s purchase of foods
•Community women as
promotors for production
and consumption

Moving Forward
• President of IFAD: at a high level side event at the 73rd United Nations
General Assembly (September 2018) on the importance of prioritizing
nutrition-sensitive agricultural development. To illustrate IFAD's approach,
he gave an example from #Bangladesh, where IFAD has been supporting
the introduction of nutrient-rich indigenous small fish into fish culture
systems. Over the next three years, IFAD has committed to ensure 50%
of all new projects will be #nutritionsensitive.
• Bangladesh Country Investment Plan 2: Nutrition-sensitive food systems
• USAID, BMGF, other funding agencies: Funding nutrition-sensitive fish
agri-food systems interventions
• India; Several States: Nutrition-sensitive projects
• Government of Cambodia, UN Agencies: Piloting fish and fish-based
products in public programs
• Institute of Marine Research, Norway, Nansen Programme: analyses of
nutrient content and food safety in fish species

  • 17. Thank you Nourishing Nations Contribution of nutrition-sensitive fish agri-food systems to achieving the SDGs

Notas do Editor

  1. Consumption to production The focus is: what should IFAD invest in - in partnership with WorldFish to meet, strengthen and expand its development goals in India?
  2. The project is based on two fish production technologies: production of carps and the nutrient-rich small fish mola in small household ponds in Rangpur and Dinajpur; and sustainable management of wetlands with stocking of a small amount of mola in water bodies in Sunamganj. The ponds are managed by individual households, the water bodies by community groups, each group of about 25 households. The project period covered two full seasons of fish harvesting/production.
  3. We do not have full analyses of the data sets; the project was completed in May 2013. However, we have some data for the first season of production.
  4. Again, we need to complete data analyses on dietary diversity and fish consumption. However, we have indications form the first production season. Much emphasis on inclusion of fish in complementary feeding, at the initiation of complementary feeding – at 6 months of age. Emphasis of increasing the amount and frequency of consumption of small fish in the diets of pregnant and lactating women. We have developed a pre-prepared complementary food powder – rice, orange sweet potato, small fish and oil, especially targeted for children 6 – 8 months of age. We have developed a woman’s product: a fish chutney: dried fish, lightly fried in oil and spices (one spoonful) to be used with the main meal. We are working hard to make sure that these products are tasty and acceptable, as well as with a strong marketing strategy to get high usage.
  5. The Bangladeshi diet is dominated by the staple rice, and consists of vegetables and fish – in small amounts. We wish to increase dietary diversity, especially focusing on nutrient-rich fish species vegetables. Therefore, in this project, beginning with pond aquaculture, we have included production of nutrient-rich vegetables, with focus on orange sweet potato – rich in vitamin A on pond dykes and homestead gardens. We have also included a strong component of promotion of consumption with , with training of trainers by Helen Keller International, and local women as promoters: nutrition education, awareness, cooking demonstrations.
  6. In pond aquaculture, women are engaged in taking care of the ponds, feeding the fish and harvesting for home consumption. In production of orange sweet potato, women are engaged in production, harvesting, cooking and feeding children. This project starts with fish production, and therefore both men and women are very interested, as increased fish production increases family income – to meet help meet the needs of the family; e.g. food purchases, schooling of children, health costs. As this project links production and consumption of both fish and vegetables, it gives an unique opportunity for both men and women to be engaged. At the same time, more work is being added to the women’s work load. We need to be innovative and engage all family members to share in the women’s work load – e.g. caring and feeding of the child, cooking. The role of mother-in-law in food distribution, ensuring that women and the adolescent girl as well as the young child are fed nutrient-rich foods must be addressed – norms, attitudes and practices must be addressed, and innovative ways for getting change sought. In Bangladesh, men do most of the marketing, and therefore the messages regarding the needs for dietary diversity and nutrient needs of different family members must reach men, so that they can make informed choices. Rapid appraisals and focus group discussions showed that community women engaged in the project highlighted many positive benefits – empowerment, greater status due to their role and knowledge, increased physical mobility.
