Monitoring Report 2015 National Food Policy Plan of Action and Country - 1 National Food Policy Plan of Action and Country Investment Plan Monitoring Report 2015 June 2015 Food Planning and Monitoring Unit (FPMU) Ministry of Food Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh This document is the result of a joint effort by the: Ministry of Agriculture Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief Ministry of Finance (Finance Division and Economic Relations Division) Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock Ministry of Food Ministry of Health and Family Welfare Ministry of Industries Ministry of Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives (LG Division and RDC Division) Ministry of Planning (Planning Commission, Statistics and Informatics Division and IMED) Ministry of Primary and Mass Education Ministry of Social Welfare Ministry of Water Resources Ministry of Women and Children Affairs Coordinated by the Food Planning and Monitoring Unit (FPMU) Ministry of Food with technical support from Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations ISBN Published by FPMU, Ministry of Food. For copies/update on the Monitoring Report please contact: DG, FPMU Khaddya Bhaban, 16 Abdul Ghani Road, Dhaka-1000; [email protected] ; visit- www.fpmu.gov.bd Foreword The Government of Bangladesh is committed to ensure food and nutrition security for its people, especially the most vulnerable groups of mothers and young children- through a comprehensive approach to food availability, access and utilisation for nutrition. To this effect, the Government adopted a comprehensive National Food Policy (NFP, 2006), its Plan of Action (PoA, 2008-2015) and investments specified in a multi-billion dollar Country Investment Plan for Agriculture, Food Security and Nutrition (CIP, 2011-2015) that is consistent with the Sixth Five Year Plan, Vision 2021 and the Millennium Development Goals. Both NFP PoA and CIP provide a result framework and a prioritized investment plan for coordinated interventions up to 2015. This report is the fifth in the annual series that jointly monitors progress towards the NFP targets. The preparation of the report was led and facilitated by the Food Planning and Monitoring Unit (FPMU) of the Ministry of Food, in collaboration with 17 partner ministries and departments, with technical assistance from FAO and financial support from USAID and EU. The report drew on 23 inter-ministerial meetings. Drafts were reviewed by the Food Policy Working Group and in a stakeholder consultation composed of the Government, development partners, private sector and civil society. The National Committee thereafter discussed and endorsed the report. The Monitoring Report 2015 shows that food and nutrition security for national well-being is a top priority at the highest level of the Government and amongst development partners. With the a available resources for interventions having grown substantially, the challenge is to ensure effective delivery of programmes in line with the increased resources. The CIP budget is now at 12.7 billion USD, of which 8.8 billion USD is already financed – as a result of the mobilization of additional 5.4 billion USD since June 2011, of which approximately 918 million USD is mobilized in 2013/14. The Government financed 5.6 billion USD (64%) and development partners financed 3.2 billion USD (36%). Bangladesh has made remarkable progress in reducing child undernutrition since the mid 1990s, but the same has not adequately translated in the reduction of population undernourishment. Underweight declined from 41 percent in 2007 to 32.6 percent in 2014. Similarly, chronic malnutrition (stunting) shows substantial decline by a third from 54.6 percent in 1997 to 36.1 percent in 2014. The improvement recorded in underweight and stunting is in line with the MDG and national targets, but remains at a level of public health concern. The recent decline in exclusive breastfeeding among children less than 6 months needs to be addressed through concerted strategies to achieve sustainable gains. Households in Bangladesh are gradually changing their diets with a larger share of calories coming from vegetables, fruits and animal-products; complementary feeding is also showing slight improvement. The report identifies encouraging developments in food production diversification in a context of steady growth in rice production and remarkable progress in aquaculture. The report outlines the need for mainstreaming nutrition beyond the health sector, points to sustained increase in purchasing power, decline in poverty, especially in urban areas, and efforts to expand public food grain storage capacity. Besides, there is need for implementation of the national Social Protection Strategy with attention to its impact on food security and nutrition. The Bangladesh Food Safety Authority needs to coordinate overall food safety management and guide the implementation of the Food Safety Act 2013. Commitments to the Rome Declaration and Framework for Action of the Second International Conference on Nutrition need to be followed up, leveraging food systems for sustainable diets and nutrition. On-going efforts to scale up national nutrition services should be further sustained. I expect this report to stimulate strategic and informed decision making and enhance delivery on food and nutrition security outcomes in Bangladesh.

BACKGROUND Eco-Social Development Organization (ESDO) has started its journey in 1988 with a noble vision to stand in solidarity with the poor and marginalized people. Being a peoples' centered organization, we envisioned for a society which will be free from inequality and injustice, a society where no child will cry from hunger and no life will be ruined by poverty. Over the last thirty years of relentless efforts to make this happen, we have embraced new grounds and opened up new horizons to facilitate the disadvantaged and vulnerable people to bring meaningful and lasting changes in their lives. During this long span, we have adapted with the changing situation and provided the most time-bound effective services especially to the poor and disadvantaged people. Taking into account the government development policies, we are currently implementing a considerable number of projects and programs including micro-finance program through a community focused and people centered approach to accomplish government’s development agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN as a whole.

This article is an open access publication Abstract Pesticides used to protect the crops from pest attack in the agricultural felds pose harmful efect to the non-target organisms such as human and many other aquatic and terrestrial organisms either directly or indirectly through food chain. The present study was conducted to monitor a total of seven pesticide residues under organochlorine, organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides in three diferent sources of pond water, paddy feld water and tube-well water from Nagarpur Upazila and paddy feld water in the company of Dhaleshwari and Gazikhali river water from Saturia Upazila, Bangladesh. A total of 40 water samples were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with ultraviolet detector. Among the organo- phosphorus pesticides, diazinon was detected in eight water samples at a concentration ranging from 4.11 to 257.91 μg/l whereas, malathion was detected only in one water sample at a concentration of 84.64 μg/l and chlorpyrifos pesticide was also detected only in one water sample and the concentration was 37.3 μg/l. Trace amount of carbaryl was identifed but it was below the detection limit. None of the tested water samples was found to be contaminated with DDT or its metabolites (DDE and DDD).

  • Cropping Pattern, Intensity and Diversity in Dhaka Region
    Bangladesh Rice J. 21 (2) : 123-141, 2017 Cropping Pattern, Intensity and Diversity in Dhaka Region N Parvin1*, A Khatun1, M K Quais1 and M Nasim1 ABSTRACT Sustainable crop production in Bangladesh through improvement of cropping intensity and crop diversity in rice based cropping system is regarded as increasingly important in national issues. Planning of agricultural development largely depends on the authentic, reliable and comprehensive statistics of the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity of a particular area, which will provide guideline to our policy makers, researchers, extensionists and development workers. The study was conducted over all 46 upazilas of Dhaka agricultural region in 2015 using pretested semi-structured questionnaire with a view to document the existing cropping patterns, cropping intensity and crop diversity in the region. From the present study, it was observed that about 48.27% net cropped area (NCA) is covered by exclusive rice cropping systems whereas deep water rice occupied about 16.57% of the regional NCA. The most dominant cropping pattern Boro−Fallow−T. Aman alone occupied about 22.59% of net cropped area (NCA) with its distribution over 32 upazilas out of 46. The second largest area was covered by single Boro cropping pattern, which was spread over 44 upazilas. Total number of cropping patterns was observed 164. The highest number of cropping pattern was identified 35 in Tangail sadar and Dhamrai upazila of Dhaka district and the lowest was seven in Bandar of Narayanganj and Palash of Narsingdi district. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was reported as 0.70 in Dhamrai followed by 0.72 in Monohardi of Narsingdi.

M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.

  • Community-Based Autonomous Adaptation and Vulnerability to Extreme Floods in Bangladesh: Processes, Assessment and Failure Effects
    Community-Based Autonomous Adaptation and Vulnerability to Extreme Floods in Bangladesh: Processes, Assessment and Failure Effects MD ABOUL FAZAL YOUNUS BSc (Hons), MSc (Geography, Dhaka University), MPhil (Geography, Waikato University) Thesis Submitted For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Discipline of Geographical and Environmental Studies The University of Adelaide August 2010 ABSTRACT ABSTRACT The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (2007), especially Chapter 17: Assessment of Adaptation Practices, Options, Constraints and Capacity demonstrates the importance of adaptation to climate change. The IPCC (2007) warned that the megadelta basins in South Asia, such as the Ganges Brahmaputra Meghna (GBM) will be at greatest risk due to increased flooding, and that the region’s poverty would reduce its adaptation capacity. A key issue in assessing vulnerability and adaptation (V & A) in response to extreme flood events (EFEs) in the GBM river basin is the concept of autonomous adaptation. This thesis investigates autonomous adaptation using a multi-method technique which includes two participatory rapid appraisals (PRA), a questionnaire survey of 140 participant analyses over 14 mauzas in the case study area, group and in-depth discussions and a literature review. The study has four key approaches. First, it reviews the flood literature for Bangladesh from 1980 to 2009 and identifies a general description of flood hazard characteristics, history and research trends, causes of floods, and types of floods. Second, it examines farmers’ crop adaptation processes in a case study area at Islampur, Bangladesh, in response to different types of EFEs (multi-peak with longer duration flood, single-peak with shorter duration flood and single-peak at the period of harvesting), and describes how farmers have been adapting to the extreme floods over time.
