Work to date I Since the Nairobi meeting (January 2013): • Manure Management Improvement Program • Manure Kiosk: Funding proposal submitted to Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) • Pilot projects: inventory Vietnam, project definition Kenya • Mapping Manure Management: livestock Wiki, first analysis results • Team structure: • Core team active, but very small • Continuity required • Representation Guiding Group • Meeting in Bangkok, August 2013
Preliminary activities • Global inventory on manure production and management: • production of NPK in manures; • current manure management practices; • actual use of manure as fertilizer and associated nutrient balances. • FAO/ILRI/IIASA/WUR, the livestock Wiki • Target and prioritize the development of planning tools and regulatory and incentive frameworks; • support viable manure management; • create opportunities for nutrient recycling • Manure Kiosk as the vehicle
Manure Kiosk • Proposal Manure Kiosk: knowledge infrastructure for: • Awareness raising and learning at policy and technical levels • Catalysing manure management improvement • Capacity building, training • Networking and practical collaboration • Structure: • Information Hubs: central and regional (3), use existing structures/institutions • People for contacts, training, workshops, etc. • Roster of experts, for consultation and service provision • Internet site for information, lessons, market place • Livestock-geo-wiki
Manure Kiosk • Current partners: • Climate and Clean Air Coalition • Global Methane Initiative • Global Agenda of Action • Global Research Alliance • World bank • Wageningen Livestock Research • Tropical Agricultural Research and Higher Education Center (CATIE) • International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) • Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) – Bangkok Office • Advanced negotiations / Proposal for funding submitted
