Abstract

The main issue tackled by Family Farms for the Future (FF4F) is dietary diversity. This study captures FF4F contributions to food security. Interviews include village model farmers (VMFs), target farmers, village health volunteers (VHVs), village chiefs, hatchery owners, a nursing pond owner, farmers in target villages not enrolled in the project, farmers in non-target villages, project staff, partners, and government Fisheries Administration (FIA). The report provides details of the programme activities, outputs and outcomes. The project increases availability of and access to good quality horticulture and fish products, while also tackling food security and health through child-feeding, and improved hygiene.
