The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia
The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia Technical Report Samuel Mulenga Bwalya Department of Economics, University of Zambia, Box 32379, Lusaka Tel# 260 1 290475, [email protected] The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia Draft summary We have shown that forests and woodland resources contribute, on average, 21% to total production and income of rural households. Aggregating forest production and income to a national levels based on sample information is challenging task and by no means likely to be very precise and accurate. But scaling up sample estimates to the national level facilitates inter-sectoral comparisons and would sharpen our insights about the importance of forests and woodland resources in rural development and poverty reduction. Sample estimates and national statistics on the number of rural households is used to scale up and estimate the contribution of forest and woodland resources to the national rural household sector. We multiply the proportion of households harvesting a particular forest product by the total number of rural households in Zambia. This gives us an estimate of the number of rural household across the country that harvest forest a given forest product both for consumption within the household and for sell to obtain cash income. This estimate is then multiplied by the average value of each forest product harvested to obtain the total contribution of the forests sector to rural household economy. Because we ignore value addition along the supply chain and other forms of income and services households derive from forests, this estimate should be seen to represent the minimum contribution of forest resources to rural household sector. -
Monthly Report January 19 – February 19, 2002 Summary
Monthly Report January 19 – February 19, 2002 Summary • Zambia continued to experience a generally normal to below-normal rainy season. The dry spell in the southern parts of the country is of great concern as this has extended into some high- producing districts in Southern Province (Choma District), Western Province (Kaoma District) and the southern parts of Central Province. Crop yields in these areas are expected to be significantly reduced as a result. In some areas, crops have passed the permanent wilting point. • Zambia’s neighboring countries of Malawi, Mozambique, and particularly Zimbabwe have also experienced well-below normal rainfall this season. • Zambia’s food security situation continues to be of great concern, as the availability of staple food (maize) remains limited this late into the marketing season. Many households are also having problems purchasing maize as a result of exceptionally high prices. • The World Food Program started its relief food distribution program on January 24. So far, progress has been good despite the slow rate of relief food being brought into the country. Out of the estimated 42,000 MT requirement, only 12,000 MT has been purchased in South Africa for distribution to Zambia. Response from donors has been slow. As of February 12, 1,800 MT of maize was received from South Africa, all of which has been moved to the targeted districts. 1.0 Rainfall and Crop Condition 1.1 Rainfall Generally, the rainy season in Zambia so far has been characterized by normal to below-normal rainfall. Normal rainfall has been confined to northern and central parts of Zambia. -
Agrarian Changes in the Nyimba District of Zambia
7 Agrarian changes in the Nyimba District of Zambia Davison J Gumbo, Kondwani Y Mumba, Moka M Kaliwile, Kaala B Moombe and Tiza I Mfuni Summary Over the past decade issues pertaining to land sharing/land sparing have gained some space in the debate on the study of land-use strategies and their associated impacts at landscape level. State and non-state actors have, through their interests and actions, triggered changes at the landscape level and this report is a synthesis of some of the main findings and contributions of a scoping study carried out in Zambia as part of CIFOR’s Agrarian Change Project. It focuses on findings in three villages located in the Nyimba District. The villages are located on a high (Chipembe) to low (Muzenje) agricultural land-use gradient. Nyimba District, which is located in the country’s agriculturally productive Eastern Province, was selected through a two-stage process, which also considered another district, Mpika, located in Zambia’s Muchinga Province. The aim was to find a landscape in Zambia that would provide much needed insights into how globally conceived land-use strategies (e.g. land-sharing/land-sparing trajectories) manifest locally, and how they interact with other change processes once they are embedded in local histories, culture, and political and market dynamics. Nyimba District, with its history of concentrated and rigorous policy support in terms of agricultural intensification over different epochs, presents Zambian smallholder farmers as victims and benefactors of policy pronouncements. This chapter shows Agrarian changes in the Nyimba District of Zambia • 235 the impact of such policies on the use of forests and other lands, with agriculture at the epicenter. -
