An open call for proposals to integrate gender in research led to excellent feedback: at least 20 positive proposals. Decisions on which projects to fund were taken based on certain criteria. The program also initiated a coaching track for projects to be supported in their efforts to integrate gender. Gender has helped the research centres to come together around one topic: technical and social scientists coming together. For the second phase of the program, the CGIAR research “flagships” (focus areas) and technical teams will integrate gender in their work from the beginning. The approaches will evolve, but collaboration between centers and teams will remain. Interview with Isabelle Baltenweck (ILRI) for the book "A different kettle of fish?

The researchers conducted a pig value-chain analysis and identified constraints and opportunities. Smallholders are the majority of stakeholders in the chain. Women play an important role in production: they take care of pigs, feed, water, health and cleaning. But they are scarcely engaged in post- production activities like slaughter, processing and marketing, which are dominated by men. The researchers explored ways for women to get involved in these activities and find out if they can benefit from them. They are piloting pig business hubs to bring farmers and service providers together. They want to find out whether women take part in the hubs and if they benefit from doing so. The hubs focused on feed are open for both men and women, but those working on markets are contentious because men seem to dominate. The researchers want to work with partners to help create an open space for women in these hubs. Interview with Emily Ouma (ILRI) for the book "A different kettle of fish?

Gender specialists support non-gender scientists to collect and analyse gender-disaggregated data. They pay attention to decision-making, household relations, and access and control of resources. Some projects are more successful than others: it helps to have the commitment of the principal investigator and from other non-gender scientists. Open-minded people are necessary to adopt new lines of work, including gender work. Men and women have different views, and sex-disaggregated data can better inform research work.

Data was collected from 136 value chain actors and 36 key informants through 17 group discussions and two key informant interview (KII) sessions respectively using Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) tools. Results from this study revealed that according to value chain actors and stakeholders, the transportation, slaughtering, and collection/bulking nodes represent the highest risk, followed by the inputs and services (feeds and drugs) supply nodes. The processing, whole sale and consumption nodes represented the lowest risk. Value chain actors are aware of the disease and its consequences to the pig industry, however biosecurity measures are poorly implemented at all nodes of the value chain. As for the causes, value chain actors pointed to several factors, such as inadequate knowledge of mechanisms for the spread of the disease, poor enforcement of regulations on disease control, and low capacities of actors to implement biosecurity measures, amongst others. Although traders, butchers and veterinary practitioners accepted that they played an important role in the spread of the virus, they did not perceive themselves as key actors in the control of the disease; instead, they believed that only farmers should adopt biosecurity measures on their farms because they keep the pigs for a longer period. Most of the recommendations given by the value chain actors for controlling and preventing ASF disease were short term, and targeted mainly pig producers. These recommendations included: the establishment of live pig collection centres so that traders and brokers do not have to directly access pig farms, capacity building of value chain actors on application of biosecurity, enactment and enforcement of by-laws on live pig movements and establishment of operational outbreak reporting mechanism at district level. Long term recommendations included the development of a vaccine, as well as pen-side diagnostic tests. This study suggests that interventions to control ASF disease through application of biosecurity measures should target all value chain actors, but should put more emphasis on post-farm nodes especially the trading.Item Farmers’ preference for bundled input-output markets: Implications for adapting dairy market hubs in the Tanzania dairy value chain(Presentation, 2016-09-23) Rao, E.J.O.; Mtimet, Nadhem; Twine, Edgar E.; Baltenweck, Isabelle; Omore, Amos O.
