ZAMBIA Mvam Bulletin #9: March 2017 ZAMBIA mVAM Bulletin #9: March 2017 Food security deteriorated in Western province Key points: Bean and groundnut prices have fallen as households are consuming home grown legumes Dietary diversity is worst in Eastern province Dietary diversity is similar between households receiving food assistance and those who are not Maize prices have risen in Nakonde (Muchinga province), Mansa (Luapula province), Choma (Southern province) and Lundazi (Eastern province) WFP/Rein Skullerud Methodology Map 1: Areas surveyed in March 2017 In January 2017, WFP began collecting household food security data on food consumption, coping strategies and demographics via the mobile Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping (mVAM) initiative using Computer Assisted Telephone Interviews (CATI). Respondents were also asked to comment on the food situation in their communities. Data was collected from 1,000 respondents from 12 districts in five provinces: Copperbelt (Ndola and Chililabombwe), Eastern (Mambwe and Petauke), Lusaka (Chongwe and Rufunsa), Southern (Choma, Gwembe and Livingstone) and Western (Kalabo, Mongu and Sesheke). Participants were randomly selected from a database of mobile subscribers. An airtime credit incentive of US$0.50 (ZMK4.90) was given to respondents who successfully completed the survey. In March 2017, household dietary diversity data was collected instead of food consumption and coping strategies. The data were weighted by the number of mobile phones owned by the household and district population estimates. WFP Zambia’s in-house call centre – operational since May 2016 – also conducts telephone interviews with traders to collect weekly information on the prices of foods including maize, rice, groundnuts, cassava and beans, as well as information on general food availability and market accessibility. Source: mVAM, March 2017 1 mVAM Bulletin #9: March 2017 ZAMBIA Low dietary diversity in Eastern and Western provinces Figure 1: Household dietary diversity by province Across the monitored provinces, the mean Household Dietary Diversity Score (HDDS) for March 2017 was 7, indicating that households had consumed an average of 7 out of the 12 surveyed food groups in the 24 hours preceding the survey. This fairly high HDDS signals a good level of access to food, potentially thanks to increased access to seasonal foods such as pumpkins, sweet potatoes and in some cases, legumes (beans and cowpeas) – especially the early planted crops which are rich in micronutrients. Overall, 64 percent of households had medium dietary diversity and close to 25 percent had high dietary diversity. However, despite the consumption of seasonal foods, limited dietary diversity persists, as indicated by the 11.2 percent of sampled households with low dietary diversity. Households headed by women reported lower access to a variety of foods: over 15 percent of them reported low dietary diversity compared to just over 10 percent of households headed by men. Fewer households headed by women had consumed key food groups such as dairy (30 percent) and pulses (40 percent) compared to those headed by men, 39 percent of whom reported consuming dairy and 52 percent reported consuming pulses. Source: mVAM,March 2017 Figure 2: Percentage of households consuming different food groups by province Copperbelt province had the highest proportion of households with high dietary diversity followed by Southern (Figure 1), largely as a result of the high consumption of livestock products such as meat, eggs and dairy, since these are predominantly livestock-rearing areas. March data show that a significantly higher proportion of households in Copperbelt and Southern consumed dairy, eggs and meat compared to other provinces (Figure 2). By contrast, close to one fifth of respondent households in Eastern and Western had low dietary diversity. Traditionally, these two provinces have low consumption of livestock products, which are only eaten during special occasions. Source: mVAM,March 2017 WFP/Photographer 1 In this analysis, a HDDS of 4.7 or lower is categorized as low dietary diversity; between 4.8 and 9 is categorized as medium dietary diversity; and a HDDS of 9 or higher is categorized as high. 2 mVAM Bulletin #9: March 2017 ZAMBIA Low consumption of iron-rich foods by those worst-off The wall and roof types of a household’s dwelling are used as a proxy for its socio- economic status in this report. There was some correlation between the number of food groups consumed by households and the type of dwelling: 29 percent of households with walls made of sticks and 36 percent with thatched grass roofs – the worst-off categories – had low dietary diversity. Around 34 percent of better-off households – those with concrete walls – had high dietary diversity (Figure 3), implying that households with higher disposable incomes have access to and consume diverse foods rich in micronutrients. A recent change in residence can also create vulnerabilities for households as it implies displacement. March HDDS data show that 12 percent of households who had relocated their residence in the past 6 months had low dietary diversity compared to just 7 percent of those who had not moved. By contrast, no significant differences in dietary diversity were observed among those receiving food assistance and those who were not. The consumption of iron-rich foods such as meat and fish was also seen to be directly correlated with socio-economic status. As in Figure 4, a little over a third of the worst-off households (those with thatched grass roofs) consumed iron-rich foods compared to well over three quarters of the wealthiest households (those with special iron or concrete roofs).

Prices soared in Nakonde (Muchinga) (18.2 percent); Mansa (Luapula) (11.9 percent); Choma (Southern) (11.5 percent), and Lundazi (Eastern) (11.4 percent). Maize prices fell slightly in a few districts such as Serenje (Central) and Chipata (Eastern), where maize became 4.2 percent cheaper, and in Kalomo (Southern) where prices dropped 1.4 percent. Prices are Source: mVAM,March 2017 expected to fall further as households harvest their own production later in April. The average maize price in March (ZMK2.29/kg) was 5.2 percent higher than in February (ZMK2.17/kg) for all 24 monitored districts. The March average price was also above the national Map 3: Maize prices by district (ZMK/kg), March five-year average (March 2011 to March 2016) of ZMK1.47/kg (source: FAO GIEWS).

Price rises were seen in Choma (Southern) (10.6 percent), Kawambwa (Luapula) (4.6 percent) and Petauke (Eastern) (4.5 percent). Bean prices were stable in three districts between February and March: Chipili (Luapula), Kasama (Northern) and Mafinga (Muchinga). Further price drops are expected in most of the monitored districts as main bean harvest continues into April, with an increased consumption of home grown beans and less market dependency. Groundnuts were generally more expensive in March than in February as the lean season reached its peak. There were marked increases in Luapula province with prices up 50 percent in Chiengi and up 37.5 percent in Mansa. Falling groundnut prices were seen in some districts, particularly in Kaoma, (Western), Lundazi (Eastern) and Monze (Southern) as shown in Table 1. The fall in groundnut prices is mainly attributable to greater supply from 2017 harvests, which is expected to increase in April.

  • 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.

  • The Case of Honey in Zambia the Case
    Small-scale with outstanding economic potential enterprises woodland-based In some countries, honey and beeswax are so important the term ‘beekeeping’ appears in the titles of some government ministries. The significance of honey and beeswax in local livelihoods is nowhere more apparent than in the Miombo woodlands of southern Africa. Bee-keeping is a vital source of income for many poor and remote rural producers throughout the Miombo, often because it is highly suited to small scale farming. This detailed Non-Timber Forest Product study from Zambia examines beekeeping’s livelihood role from a range of perspectives, including market factors, production methods and measures for harnessing beekeeping to help reduce poverty.

  • The Political Ecology of a Small-Scale Fishery, Mweru-Luapula, Zambia
    Managing inequality: the political ecology of a small-scale fishery, Mweru-Luapula, Zambia Bram Verelst1 University of Ghent, Belgium 1. Introduction Many scholars assume that most small-scale inland fishery communities represent the poorest sections of rural societies (Béné 2003). This claim is often argued through what Béné calls the "old paradigm" on poverty in inland fisheries: poverty is associated with natural factors including the ecological effects of high catch rates and exploitation levels. The view of inland fishing communities as the "poorest of the poorest" does not imply directly that fishing automatically lead to poverty, but it is linked to the nature of many inland fishing areas as a common-pool resources (CPRs) (Gordon 2005). According to this paradigm, a common and open-access property resource is incapable of sustaining increasing exploitation levels caused by horizontal effects (e.g. population pressure) and vertical intensification (e.g. technological improvement) (Brox 1990 in Jul-Larsen et al. 2003; Kapasa, Malasha and Wilson 2005). The gradual exhaustion of fisheries due to "Malthusian" overfishing was identified by H. Scott Gordon (1954) and called the "tragedy of the commons" by Hardin (1968). This influential model explains that whenever individuals use a resource in common – without any form of regulation or restriction – this will inevitably lead to its environmental degradation. This link is exemplified by the prisoner's dilemma game where individual actors, by rationally following their self-interest, will eventually deplete a shared resource, which is ultimately against the interest of each actor involved (Haller and Merten 2008; Ostrom 1990). Summarized, the model argues that the open-access nature of a fisheries resource will unavoidably lead to its overexploitation (Kraan 2011).

  • 2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment
    2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment Travel Time Matrix Railway Companies and Consortia Capacity Table Key Route Information Key Stations The Zambia National Railways are very important to the economy of the country as it is a bulk carrier with less effect on the environment than many other transport modes. The Government intends to expand its railway network in the country to develop the surface transport sector. Through the Ministry of Transport, a new statutory instrument (SI) was passed, which requires industries to move 30% of their carriage by rail. This is in a bid to decongest the road sector and possibly reduce the damage done by heavy duty trucks on Zambian roads. The development of rail routes linking important exit points is not only vital for facilitating smooth access to the outside but also for the overall boosting of trade in the sub-region and making Zambia a competitive country for business. Traditionally, the Zambian railways have generally operated well below their original design capacity, yet significant investment is underway to increase their volumes by investing in track conditions, increase locomotive and wagon availability and increase operating capital. The rail network remains the dominant mode of transportation for goods on the local and international routes but is under-utilized. The main railway lines are the Zambia Railways, owned by Government and the TAZARA line, linking Zambia with Tanzania, and jointly owned by the Zambian and Tanzanian governments. The opening of the Chipata-Mchinji railway link provides connectivity into the Malawi and Mozambique railway network and further connects Zambia to the port of Nacala.
