  1. Forests as Food Producing Habitats :A research evidence from the Kondh Community in Rayagada district , Odisha ODISHA VIKASH CONCLAVE 2016 Theme – Sustainable Food and Nutrition Security 20th September 2016 at DRTC-CYSD, Bhubaneswar

  2. Status of Malnutrition Indicators: Findings of Baseline Survey • Baseline was done in 2011 with 2046 HHs of Bissam Cuttack and Muniguda Block. • 62% children were found to be underweight .34% were severely underweight. • 23% children were found to be wasted . 12% were severely wasted. • 75% children were found to be stunted . 55% were severely stunted.

  3. Our Approach ---- Community Mobilization(LANN-PLA) Transforming attitudes, perspectives, behaviours and actions • Re-orienting Agriculture to grow safe , nutritious , and diverse foods • Strengthening local food systems through • Local Resource based Ecological Agriculture • Collection of food from the commons. • Improving DDS Natural Resource Management Regenerating and conserving degraded commons & facilitating community’s rights over it Improving Food & Nutrition Security Community's access to rights and entitlements Working with Block level officials of of the departments of WCD , Health ,Agriculture , and Panchayat Raj at block level

  4. Dietary Pattern As per our survey findings UCF contribute approximately 37%, 29% and 45% to Community’s food basket in summer, rainy and winter respectively.

  5. Local foods are the best sources of nutrition Nutrients in some of the uncultivated crops

  6. Local foods are the best sources of nutrition Nutrients in some of the cultivated crops

  7. Nutrient component of UCF Nutrient Component of Musakani Saga SCIENTIFIC NAME: Coculus hirsutus

  8. Forest diversity and NutritiousDiets Available protein in gm from one day food consumption data (on raw food basis) Available fiber in g from one day food consumption data (on raw food basis) Andherilima is a village with shrunken forest and Laxmipur with good forest cover. From randomly selected 50 % households for 5 days, across 6 month actual cooked ingredients were weighed and estimations were made for different nutrients. The data of 11 household data is presented above. It is only estimation made from raw foods that went into cooking pot remarkable.

  9. Forest diversity and Nutritious Diets . Available Iron in mg from one day food consumption data ( on raw food basis) Available Calcium in mg from one day food consumption data (on raw food basis). Andherilima a village with shrunken forest and Laxmipur with good forest cover. From randomly selected 50 % households for 5 days, across 6 month actual cooked ingredients were weighed and estimations were made for different nutrients. The data of 11 household data is presented above. It is only estimation made from raw foods that went into cooking pot remarkable.

  10. Dietary Diversity Score • DDS is collected in 25% of total villages in the HHs having (0-2) years children & pregnant mothers. • 24 hour recall method was used with respondents • Analysis is shared with community. • Crop plan prepared according to DDS analysis. • Separate crop plans for farms and Nutrition garden are prepared.

  12. Comparison- Food groups consumed by % HH

  13. Low score- HHs consumed 3 ~ 5 varieties of food groups in last 24 hour. Medium score- HHs consumed 6~ 7 food groupsHigh score- HHs consumed more than 8 food groups

  14. Crop Planning • Crop Planning is prepared with each HHs for farm and nutrition garden to ensure balanced diet with appropriate quantity. • Communities have been facilitated to collect seeds from neighbouring villages to increase their existing crop diversity. • After crop planning, diversity increased to 11~12 varieties from 4~ 5 varieties. • Increase of pigeon pea cultivation, consumption and bringing in more land under pulses away from cotton. • More than 5000 families planting one papaya and drumstick tree each in their backyard.

  15. Increasing crop diversity and productivity at farm and garden Increase in availability of more carbohydrates, proteins, fat and other vitamins and minerals at households

  16. Food from farm & food from forest 62 varities of Fruits,Nuts, Vegetables 29 varieties of Mushrooms 31 varities of Green leaves 37 varities of Birds 25 varities of Wildanimals & Insects 8 varieties of Honey 19 varieties of Fish & crabs 25 varieties of Roots & Tubers 7 varieties of Oilseeds 23 varieties of millets 3 varieties of Maize 2 varieties of Sorghum 217 varities of Paddy 16 varieties of Pulses 7 types of Oilseeds 32 varieties of Vegetables

  17. System Strengthening Training programs for front line workers AWW, ASHA, ANMs Front line workers are attending LANN PLA meeting at village level. Regular engagement with CDPO, DSWO Capacity of AWW, ASHA have been improved, now they are comfortable to conduct village meetings and household counseling. Front line workers and we are working with good cooperation to each other.
