In this week's news stories, we follow two issues of great importance to
food security: farmland grabbing and cash cropping. Our first story comes
from Tanzania, where we learn that public outcry has once again proven
effective in halting attempted farmland grabs. Our second story turns to
cotton-growing communities in Malawi. We learn that cotton farmers fear
starvation because they have been unable to sell their crops. In the Notes
to Broadcaster and Script of the Week sections, we follow up on this topic
with story ideas and resources on the topics of crop choice and food
security.
Don't miss the Radio Resource Bank entry for a comprehensive resource on
starting and maintaining a community radio station. And for those who are
working on entries for the Radio Scriptwriting Competition on Smallholder
Farmer Innovation, turn to the Farm Radio Action section for a reminder of
the deadline, the prizes you can win, and information on how to make your
submission.
Happy reading!

*1. Tanzania: Biofuel projects halted following outcry (The East African)*
Tanzania's land looks different to international investors than it does to
Tanzanian farmers. Where farmers see farms, pasture and forests, investors
picture opportunities to grow biofuel crops.
Two environmental groups have prepared a report describing the country as
biofuel companies see it. According to the report, investors have identified
hundreds of thousands of hectares of land for growing biofuel crops. If
their projects proceed, more than 5,000 small-scale rice farmers could be
displaced.
The report was released in late September. The response by local and
international environmental groups was immediate. They pressured the
Tanzanian government to put a stop to the land grabbing. Within weeks, the
government agreed to halt new biofuel projects.
Esther Mfugale is the coordinator of biofuel production for the Ministry of
Agriculture, Food Security, and Cooperatives. She says the government has
ordered regional authorities to halt biofuel projects. According to Ms.
Mfugale, the government has also put a stop to the selling of village land.
She says the government "was asleep" and did not realize that these
investors were planning to buy land in Tanzania.
Already, there are 40 companies growing biofuel crops in Tanzania. There are
jatropha, sugarcane, and palm plantations. In some cases, farmers are
contracted as outgrowers. They grow a biofuel crop which is then purchased
by the contracting company.
In other cases, companies purchase land to grow the crops. This is what
happened recently in the Usangu district of western Tanzania. More than
1,000 small-scale farmers were forced off their land. Where they used to
grow rice, there is now a commercial sugarcane plantation.
Abdallah Mkindi is an environmental officer for Envirocare Tanzania, one of
the groups which authored the report. He explains that the most fertile land
is being targeted by biofuel companies.
While the government has put a halt to biofuel investments, it may only be
temporary. Tanzania's cabinet is preparing a policy on these investments.
Once the policy is in place, the government may allow biofuel companies to
invest in local land. But they will have to follow the government's new
rules. Ms. Mfugale said these policies will be used to prevent investors
from acting against the interests of the country.

*2. Malawi: Despite maize surplus, some farmers are hungry (IPS)*
Montfort Salijeni peels a wild tuber. He found the potato-like tuber in the
bush near his home in southern Malawi. The farmer has no choice but to
harvest wild vegetables. As a nation, Malawi is enjoying a maize surplus.
But the bush is the only source of food for Mr. Salijeni's family.
Mr. Salijeni and his wife, Ida Salijeni, grow cotton. In a normal year, the
Salijenis sell their cotton to purchase maize and other necessities. But
this year, most cotton farmers have not sold a single kilogram.
The problem lies in a disagreement between the government and cotton buyers.
This year, the Malawian government set the minimum price for cotton at 54
cents per kilo. The government said cotton farmers deserve a good return for
their labour. But buyers say the global demand for cotton is down. They only
want to pay 30 cents per kilo.
Major buyers have established offices in Malawi to purchase cotton. But
these buyers have withdrawn from Malawi's cotton-producing areas. This
includes Chingale, the community where the Salijenis live.
Davidson Mbayisa is another cotton farmer in Chingale. He belongs to a club
of small-scale cotton growers. He explains that the farming club has
benefitted from Malawi's fertilizer subsidy program. They produced a good
cotton harvest earlier this year. But their cotton is still in storage.
Mr. Mbayisa says that cotton farmers are stranded. They do not have the
means to transport cotton to buyers. They are also afraid. If the first
rains come next month, their cotton crop will rot, and all their efforts
will have been in vain. Mr. Mbayisa worries that some people in his region
will starve to death.
The rainy season is often a difficult time in Chingale. Cotton farmers
normally prepare by stocking up on maize. Ida Salijeni wishes she could do
this again this year. She wishes buyers would come and buy her cotton at any
price. But for now, Malawi's maize surplus is out of her family's reach.

*Notes to Broadcasters*
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
*Each week, we use the Notes to Broadcasters section of FRW to share
additional information and resources that we come across while researching
the African Farm News in Review. We will also pass along ideas on how you
could further explore issues from the news at your radio organization. If
you have an idea or resource related to any of this week's news stories, we
invite you to share it by posting a comment on FRW's website at:
<http://weekly.farmradio.org/>http://weekly.farmradio.org/*.
*Notes to broadcasters on land grabbing:*
Farm Radio Weekly has been following the issue of farmland grabbing in
Africa since November, 2008, when it was announced that a South Korean
company intended to lease half of Madagascar's arable land. Since then,
there have been countless media reports on the issue of farmland grabbing.
The reports have considered both the consequences in cases where investors
have already taken over farmland, and the threats posed by investors'
growing interest in capturing more farmland.
Over the same period, there has been a growing protest against farmland
grabbing. These protests include local people who will be affected (in many
cases, removed from their land), as well as a variety of NGOs interested in
farmers' rights, environmental considerations, and other issues. The
following FRW reports describe cases where protests have been effective in
halting land grab attempts:
-"Africa: Angola land deal announced; Madagascar land deal on
hold<http://weekly.farmradio.org/?p=698>"
(FRW#52, January 2009)
-"Kenya: Local resistance to land grab captures government, investor
attention <http://weekly.farmradio.org/?p=1036>" (FRW#70, June 2009)
-"Republic of the Congo: Land deals on
hold<http://weekly.farmradio.org/?p=1080>"
(FRW#71, June 2009)
There has also been research on how land transactions could be carried out
in a way that is beneficial to everyone, including local people. The
International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) recommends the
following to ensure that local people are protected in land deals:
transparency in negotiations; respect for existing land rights; equitable
sharing of benefits; environmental sustainability; and abidance with
national trade policies. The entire IFPRI report, entitled: "Land grabbing"
by foreign investors in developing countries: Risks and opportunities, is
available online, here: <http://www.ifpri.org/pubs/bp/bp013.asp>
http://www.ifpri.org/pubs/bp/bp013.asp.
The following questions may serve as a starting point for investigating
farmland investment in your area:
-Who are the investors (company, government, or other) who have leased or
bought land (or are interested in leasing or buying land)?
-Did the national government consult local small-scale farmers about the
negotiations? If yes, what was the process? If not, what was the outcome?
-What sort of agriculture (commercial, subsistence, etc.) is being practiced
on the land in question and what sort of crops are being grown? What type of
agriculture do the foreign investors wish to practice?
-Who will control the land? Who will profit?
-Will the local community benefit from the land investment? What guarantees
do they have that the investors will deliver any benefits promised?
-If rural people have been or will be displaced by the land grab, where will
they go? How will they meet their food needs?
-Are there alternatives to permitting the sale or lease of local land that
would benefit rural communities?
You may also wish to review the following FRW articles, published as part of
our series on land grabbing. Each of these stories highlights how local
people are affected, and how they have mobilized to resist land grab
attempts and/or ensure a better deal for their communities:

*Notes to broadcasters on cotton farmers:*
Both maize and cotton farmers in Malawi enjoyed a good harvest this year.
For cotton farmers, an ample harvest usually means a good income, once their
crops have been sold. This year, however, Malawi's cotton farmers were left
with no way to market their crops, and therefore no income to purchase food.
In this state of food insecurity, farming families rely on wild vegetables
and hope for food aid.
If you broadcast to an area where many farmers grow non-food crops, you may
wish to prepare programs on food security. How can farmers who grow non-food
crops improve their security when crop failure, severe marketing problems,
or other difficulties prevent them from purchasing food?
Here are two program ideas:
-Find one or more farmers in your community who grow both food and non-food
crops. Prepare a report that allows these farmers to explain why they chose
this mix of crops. What past experiences led them to their choices? Can they
describe a particularly difficult growing or marketing season during which
they were glad they had diversified their crops?
-Host a call-in show that invites local farmers to call- or text-in and
discuss their crop choices. For these farmers, what are the benefits and
risks associated with growing non-food crops? How have farmers coped with
seasons when they were not able to sell their crops, or couldn't get a
decent price?
Some farmers choose to plant "survival" or "security" crops. These are crops
which produce food even in poor weather and without inputs such as
fertilizers. The following scripts describe some survival crops and why
communities rely on them:
-"'Survival' crops provide food during times of
need<http://farmradio.org/english/radio-scripts/67-2script_en.asp>"
(Package 67, Script 2, June 2003)
-"The importance of security
crops<http://farmradio.org/english/radio-scripts/73-6script_en.asp>"

*The importance of security crops*
Our news story from Malawi illustrates how difficult life can be for cash
crop farmers who are unable to sell their harvest. Other hardships, such as
illness, death in the family, or conflict, can also cause great difficulty
for farmers who have no other source of food.
This week's script tells the fictional story of two sisters, Suad and Salma.
Both sisters are hardworking farmers, but choose to plant different crops.
While Salma planted only coffee, Suad was more cautious. We learn the steps
Suad took to diversify her crops, and how "security crops" provided for her
family when tragedy struck.
You may also find this script online at:
<http://farmradio.org/english/radio-scripts/73-6script_en.asp>
http://farmradio.org/english/radio-scripts/73-6script_en.asp.
*Notes to Broadcaster*
HIV/AIDS is much more than a health problem. The disease weakens or kills
adults in the prime of their working life and therefore has a severe
negative impact on farming and food security in rural areas. Farmers need
information about practical approaches to farming that will make the best
use of the resources they have. Through broadcasts you can encourage farmers
to plant crops and use cultivation techniques that will ensure food security
in times of need.
The following story is about two sisters with different farming systems and
two very different results. It highlights the importance for some farmers of
growing 'survival' or 'security' crops. Survival crops are crops that
provide food in times of need. A survival crop will generally have one or
more of the following characteristics:
* It provides food even when it isn't tended regularly
* It can be stored for a long time
* It has different parts that can be harvested and/or different uses
* It survives when other crops fail
* It requires relatively less labour
In this story one of the characters grows the cash crop coffee. Please
substitute coffee with more common local cash crops (cotton, tea, etc.) if
necessary.
We refer to HIV/AIDS as "the chronic illness". Please use the term that is
most familiar and acceptable to your audience.
*BRING UP MUSIC AND HOLD UNDER NARRATOR.*
*Narrator*: It is surprising how different two sisters can be. Two people
who have grown up in the same country, the same village, and the same
family. Today's program shows how the choices that a farmer makes can
sometimes mean the difference between survival and despair.
*FADE OUT MUSIC.*
*Narrator*: The two sisters in this story are both farmers. But you'll see
that their way of farming – and the kind of crops they grow – make them
quite different.
Suad was the cautious sister. She always planted some of her land with
'security' crops. For Suad, growing security crops was like having money in
the bank. Those were the crops that would always give her family something
to eat, even in times of hardship. For example, several years ago, she
replaced much of her coffee plantation with cassava, yams and sweet
potatoes.
*Narrator (cont)*: Although it was a lot of effort at first to make the
planting ridges, once the yams and sweet potatoes were growing, they didn't
require much work. She also planted fruit trees and wild vegetables in her
garden. She stopped buying relish from the store. Instead, she used the
leaves from wild vegetables to make her own relish to serve with cassava.
Suad's sister, Salma, also had a productive farm. But she made different
choices. She also grew coffee, but little else grew in her fields. She was
certain that she could make the most money with a crop of coffee. She did
not see the value in growing root crops or fruit trees.
*MUSICAL BREAK (5 seconds).*
*Narrator*: Both sisters worked hard and they were successful farmers. But
they lived in troubled times. Many people in their country, and in their
village, were dying from the chronic illness. And eventually the disease hit
one of their own. Their brother died after many years of sickness. Suad and
Salma went into mourning.
During the mourning period times were difficult. Both sisters spent money on
funeral expenses, and purchased food for relatives. But of the two sisters,
it was Salma, the sister who had only a crop of coffee, who faced more
hardship. She had no other crops to fall back on. Because of funeral
expenses, no money was left over to buy the fertilizer needed for her
coffee. So her crop suffered. Even worse, there was no money to buy food for
her family. There was only enough food for one meal a day.
But the life of Suad, the first sister, did not change much. She had plenty
of food stored in the ground – yams and cassava – and because of that her
family continued to eat two or three meals a day. She used the wild
vegetables to make relish to serve with the cassava. She harvested root
crops, fruits and leafy greens, little by little, as she needed them.
*PLAY MUSIC AND HOLD UNDER NARRATOR.*
*Narrator*: Suad planted crops that would always provide food for her
family, even in a crisis. Some of her crops stayed stored in the ground
until she needed them. Suad was able to feed her family healthy meals even
during a time of crisis.
*Narrator (cont)*: Suad planted crops that:
* Provide food, even when she doesn't have time to tend them
* Can be stored in the ground for a long time
* Have many uses
* Survive when other crops fail, and
* Demand relatively little labour.
