  • Disaster Relief Emergency Fund
    Bangladesh: DREF operation n° MDRBD004 GLIDE n° TC-2009-000105-BGD 2 June 2009 Cyclone AILA The International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) is a source of un-earmarked money created by the Federation in 1985 to ensure that immediate financial support is available for Red Cross and Red Crescent response to emergencies. The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of national societies to respond to disasters. Cyclone AILA caused extensive damage in south-western Bangladesh, destroying houses, crops and livestock. BDRCS. CHF 253,397 (USD 237,528 or EUR 167,208) has been allocated from the International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the national society in delivering immediate assistance to some 10,000 families (approximately 50,000 people). Unearmarked funds to repay DREF are encouraged. Summary: Cyclone AILA made landfall in the south western coast of Bangladesh on 25 May 2009. As of 29 May, government figures indicate that 3,709,334 people have been affected in 15 coastal districts, with 147 dead and 1,131 missing. Up to 230,208 houses were reportedly destroyed while those partially damaged stand at 315,018. The amount of damaged crops is estimated to be 340,660 acres. The government, United Nations agencies, international and local non-governmental organizations have been providing relief materials and conducting assessments in the aftermath of the disaster. With time more details of damage are coming to light and the major concern has been that the water sources have been salinated and is not receding.

  • Situation Assessment Report in S-W Coastal Region of Bangladesh
    Livelihood Adaptation to Climate Change Project (BGD/01/004/01/99) SITUATION ASSESSMENT REPORT IN S-W COASTAL REGION OF BANGLADESH (JUNE, 2009) Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) Acknowledgements The present study on livelihoods adaptation was conducted under the project Livelihood Adaptation to Climate Change, project phase-II (LACC-II), a sub-component of the Comprehensive Disaster Management Programme (CDMP), funded by UNDP, EU and DFID which is being implemented by the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) with technical support of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), UN. The Project Management Unit is especially thankful to Dr Stephan Baas, Lead Technical Advisor (Environment, Climate Change and Bioenergy Division (NRC), FAO, Rome) and Dr Ramasamy Selvaraju, Environment Officer (NRC Division, FAO, Rome) for their overall technical guidance and highly proactive initiatives. The final document and the development of the project outputs are direct results of their valuable insights received on a regular basis. The inputs in the form of valuable information provided by Field Officers (Monitoring) of four coastal Upazilas proved very useful in compiling the report. The reports of the upazilas are very informative and well presented. In the course of the study, the discussions with a number of DAE officials at central and field level were found insightful. In devising the fieldwork the useful contributions from the DAE field offices in four study upazilas and in district offices of Khulna and Pirojpur was significant. The cooperation with the responsible SAAOs in four upazilas was also highly useful. The finalization of the study report has benefited from the valuable inputs, comments and suggestions received from various agencies such as DAE, Climate Change Cell, SRDI (Central and Regional offices), and others.

  • Rice Marketing in Bangladesh: from the Perspective of Village Study at Cox’S Bazar District
    African Journal of Agricultural Research Vol. 7(45), pp. 5995 -6004, 27 November, 2012 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJAR DOI: 10.5897/AJAR12.1840 ISSN 1991-637X ©2012 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Rice marketing in Bangladesh: From the perspective of village study at Cox’s Bazar district Abeda Sultana Faculty of Business Studies, Premier University, Dampara Campus, WASA Circle, Chittagong, Bangladesh. E-mail: [email protected]. Tel: +88-01815-074884. Accepted 25 October 2012 The paper analyzes the problems and prospects of rice marketing in Bangladesh by way of using secondary data as well as primary data. Both secondary and primary data are indicative of the fact that rice marketing in Bangladesh is marred by a wide range of problems including packaging, transporting, storage, distribution and pricing. There is a comparative advantage in the production of high yielding rice in Bangladesh but its marketing system is not suitable to the small farmers to bring fair price. Most of the respondents’ opined the major causes of price hike are natural disaster, inadequate supply of food grain in the market, less production, hoarding by traders and creating artificial food crisis in the market, problems of communication system, increase of middlemen in the market to reach food grain to consumers. This study is explanatory in nature which suggests measures that can benefit both the farmers and the end users. Key words: Agriculture, marketing, Bangladesh. INTRODUCTION Bangladesh is one of the less developed countries in the marketing if they think about what to produce and how to world, with a per capita income of about $700 in 2010.
