VERLAGSINFO: This book considers their potential to contribute to income generation and poverty alleviation of numbers of urban dwellers in sub-Saharan Africa. This book provides a comprehensive synthesis of current knowledge of the potential and challenges associated with the multiple roles, use, management and livelihood contributions of indigenous vegetables in urban agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. There has been growing research and policy effort around urban agriculture in the region over the last two decades, but never has it been integrated with work on under-researched crops such as indigenous vegetables. These species have multiple advantages, including low input requirements, adaptability to African environments, high nutritional value and marked biodiversity, cultural and local food security significance. Yet they are overlooked in the modern world, where recent emphasis has been directed to growing a limited range of exotic crops, both for internal markets and for export to developed country markets. This book provides evidence that, in spite of this neglect, in many African cities indigenous vegetables are still widely used, cultivated and marketed. It goes on to consider their potential to contribute to income generation and poverty alleviation of the growing numbers of urban dwellers in sub-Saharan Africa, whilst promoting urban greening and sustainability. Based on critical analysis of the debates it presents a multidisciplinary analysis of the realities and future opportunities. Alle Preise inkl. MwSt. Widmung des Verfassers.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - African indigenous vegetables used to form an integral part of African diets but with the introduction of exotic crops their role was underplayed. With 60% of Kenyans living below the poverty line resulting in malnutrition and poor health, there is need to develop strategies that would effectively and sustainably address these challenges. In recent years, Kenyans have seen an increase in diet related ailments such as diabetes and obesity. African indigenous vegetables are micro-nutrient dense and could prove a powerful weapon in the fight against poverty and malnutrition since they are suited to local conditions and their potential has not been exploited.This book gives the methods and results of a study that was conducted to establish the supply chains of African indigenous vegetables in urban and peri-urban areas of Nairobi and Kisumu counties in Kenya. This was part of a European union financed project IndigenoVeg INCO number 015101 carried out in seven African countries. The book covers the work carried out in Kenya by conducting a baseline survey in the two counties.
