dc.descriptionThis book provides summaries of scientific advances, results and experiences on Andean Grains in the context of a multidisciplinary and inter-sector UN Programme supported by IFAD (‘IFAD NUS II Project’) which has been implemented in Bolivia from 2001 to 2010. The publication is a useful analysis of challenges and opportunities across the value chain of Andean Grains in Bolivia and how these have been addressed through community-based and highly participatory approaches. The document describes latest findings on the status of Andean Grains in Bolivia, their distribution on the territory, genetic erosion, collection, ex situ and in situ conservation, improved cultivation techniques, harvest and post harvest methods, value addition methods, nutritional profiles of raw and processed products, enhanced marketing and policy frameworks needed for their sustainable and more equitable use. Attention is paid also on innovative in situ/on farm conservation methods such as the organization of Biodiversity Fairs, agritourism approach and other community-based initiatives meant to support the role of custodian farmers. The publication is highly recommended for all Agencies and workers engaged in promoting Andean Grains in Peru and other countries in Latin America where these crops are being increasingly recognized as strategic livelihood assets for fighting poverty and nutrition insecurity within a climate changing scenario.
