Strategic Proposal 2013
Project title: Homegardens for food security and climate change mitigation and adaptation in Yucatan.
Project Focal Areas
The project is corresponding with the following GEF climate change and conservation of biodiversity priorities:
1. Agricultural practices should reduce or avoid greenhouse gas emissions 2. Tropical regions require to become climate-resilient by promoting both immediate and longer-term
adaptation measures in development policies, plans, programs, projects, and actions. 3. Agriculture should be seen as an integral component of conservation programs as well as of
development, and the recognition of the environmental services it provides should be taken into account.
4. Strengthening conservation, management and sustainable agriculture in the tropics to seek for food sovereignty, poverty and inequality reduction.
5. Make effective use of the built up capacity of local BGOs, CBOs and communities for replication of successful technologies and approaches.
6. Create greater impact and close links between local efforts and global environmental benefits. 7. Pilot innovative market mechanisms and financial instruments 8. Strengthen the sustainability and replicability of SGP projects
SECTION A: PROJECT RATIONALE AN APPROACH
1.1 Project Summary One of the most common subsistence production systems in the tropics are the home-gardens. These agroecosystems have responded to changing economic conditions, in the past, they are dynamic and continually evolving in response to the frequent intense transformations in the wider regional, national and global economies. Today there is special interest in the design of climate-smart agriculture to successfully tackle current food security and climate change challenges. These agroecosystems have responded to changing economic conditions, in the past, they are dynamic and continually evolving in response to the frequent intense transformations in the wider regional, national and global economies. The SGP Mexico has supported more than 100 agroecological and agroforestry productive projects that work in different traditional agroecosystems of the Yucatan Peninsula. There are two main agroecosystems where the CSO had put their effort: the milpa and homegardens. The Mayan family unit has managed these and other agroecosystems in an integrated and interdependent way as part of their economy and any modification of one of them will impact the other agroecosystems. In the last decade in a joint effort with the government of Yucatan more than 3,000 organic home gardens were supported. In addition, in 2013 the Ministry of Social Development of the Yucatan State has already supported 2,000 and the goal is to increase to 8,000 for this year. The government recognizes that in Yucatán there are currently 46,000 families in situation of extreme poverty and 33 Municipalities in high and very high marginalization conditions. In order to improve this condition the Secretaria de Desarrollo Social from Yucatan State creates the Program of Social Production Family's Homegarden in order to promote and improve dietary practices based on originating and traditional products, with high nutritional content, taking into account the cultural and ethnic diversity of the State, through the promotion of agroecological practices.

The goal of this Strategic Project is to evaluate the impact of socio-environmental processes involved in both the SGP productive projects and in the governmental program currently being implemented in the poorest and more vulnerable families of several municipalities of the Yucatan State and propose recommendations and changes to contribute to regional policies to favor sustainable development in this region. The project presented has been design between PROAFT A.C., UADY and SEDESOL and only includes the first year but it is expected to continue for the following five years. We expect at the end of the project to propose a group of indicators which can be obtained by producers to evaluate the impact of homegardens in food security as well as in climate change mitigation and carbon sequestration. The project also will empower women’s role in decision making process in the participant communities and in the governmental program recognizing their role in both food security and climate change mitigation and adaptation. 1.2 Organizational Background and Capacity to implement the project
Programa de Acción Forestal Tropical, Asociación Civil (PROAFT A.C.) started in 1992 and it was
uncharged to design and to develop the Tropical Forest Action Plan of Mexico 1992-2001. PROAFT A.C. began to work with small and decentralized projects in southeastern Mexico with the objective to help others acquire the capacity to give local answers to social and technical aspects according to available natural and human resources. PROAFT A.C.’s work is accomplished at a “micro” level. This means that work place in small communities, or along with a few community members, in an intervention (or interaction) model known as the tripartite alliances for the Conservation and Development of the Forest Patrimony. During this period the activities conducted were with the support of various international and national donors, as well as with the support from the Mexican government. In 2000-2001 the office worked in Merida and after that the main office was established in Xalapa Veracruz. This CSO has worked in collaboration with UADY in different projects, the last just finish last February.
Today PROAFT A.C. is integrated for a group of six recognized researchers working in different
universities and research institutes in Veracruz and Yucatán. The President is chosen by the group, currently Dra. Silvia del Amo Rodríguez is the President of the NGO.
The projects project in which PROAFT A.C. has participated recently are:
1. Development of a germplasm bank for management and conservation of agricultural, medicinal and forestry plant species in the Maya Region (2010-2013). Financial sources: FORDECYT and SEMARNAT
2. Alternative Spring break: a training course for US students working in Tzucacab, Yucatán,
México (This course has been offered 2011,2012 and 1013). Financial source: Community Agroecology Network and University of California, Santa Cruz.
3. Interdisciplinary and interinstitutional strategies to promote sustainable development in
Yucatan (2008-2010). The Ford Foundation. The project will be conducted in collaboration with: Secretaria de Desarrollo Social del Gobierno de Estado de Yucatán (Annex I). There is a group of 19
professionals that are working in the Program. In the elaboration of the project two representatives of the Program participated and all will be involved.
Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán: professors, graduate and undergraduate students from different disciplines will be involved. Includes Campus of Health Science, Campus Biological, Agronomical and Animal Husbandry Sciences, Campus of Social Sciences.
Fundación Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán will contribute with administration of the funds.

MasAgro Program from CIMMYT they will start training on Conservation Agriculture in 2014 and together with other participants will establish some plots to follow up the project.
ICCD Program University of Kassel is currently collaborating with UADY in a project on agrodiversity, migration and decent work in Yucatan, the collaboration is expected to continue if the proposal is approved.
1.3 Project Objectives and Expected Results
Today with the rapid changes in production processes influenced by globalization, economic and political crisis and the impact of climate change food security for many rural communities is uncertain. Agriculture must become climate-smart to successfully tackle current food security and climate change challenges. Agricultural activities currently produce one-fifth of the annual increase in radiative forcing, and for one-third when land use changes are included. Agriculture is a significant contributor to increasing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, and to emissions of nitric oxide and carbon monoxide. Therefore, agricultural practices and policies can affect the levels of greenhouse emissions from agricultural sources and contribute to stabilization of their atmospheric concentrations. On the other hand, agriculture should be seen as an integral component of conservation programs as well as of development, and the recognition of the environmental services it provides should be taken into account and rewarded.
An agroecological approach to agricultural development integrates ecological (including environmental and climatic components), socioeconomic, cultural and political dimensions. It should include food production systems, processing and marketing, economic and political decisions, and consumer habits in society. All these components are connected with each other and they change through time in different and complex ways. In this context three aspects are particularly important: 1) the Knowledge that is developed and which can come from science, as well as farmers; 2) the Participation and Movement of Different Actors and 3) the Practice of how today many farmers handle technologies with respect to the agroecological environment. Agroecological strategies require considering these three aspects and new competencies such as multisectoral and interdisciplinary team work, and long-term planning and impact in policies at a regional level. Agroecology seeks for food sovereignty, poverty and inequality reduction through the promotion of competitive and sustainable agricultural development conducive to greater equality, opportunities for decent jobs for all without compromising the environment, and equitable use of natural resources.
These agroecosystems have responded to changing economic conditions, in the past, they are dynamic and continually evolving in response to the frequent intense transformations in the wider regional, national and global economies.
Tropical home-gardens vary in structure, size, composition and complexity. However, a common characteristic shared by all is the presence of different canopy layers with differently sized trees, shrubs and herbs with varying degrees of light requirements (Gillespie et al., 1993). The main energy source is the sun. Nitrogen is collected from the air and recycled; minerals are released from the soil and recycled; and their structure creates light gradients and micro-climatic conditions that favor decomposition and nutrient cycling. All of these endogenous factors maintain the fertility of the agroecosystem. The composition, structure and plant associations have been selected over time creating a production system that can contribute to achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) of reducing hunger and improved environmental management. More productive and resilient agriculture based on sound management of natural resources, including land, water, soil and biodiversity. Conservation agriculture, agroforestry, improved livestock and water management, integrated pest management and mitigate climate change.
The relevance of diversification and domestication processes that take place in home gardens make them an excellent site for in situ conservation of agrodiversity (this includes agrobiodiversity, organizational diversity, management diversity and biophysical diversity). The understanding of the cultural, socio-economic and ecological processes and mechanisms occurring in these agroecosystems are important to propose sustainable land use systems.
Some important characteristics of home-gardens include: (1) being driven by endogenous factors. (2) They are integrated agricultural systems with high diversity which include fauna and flora: trees, shrubs and
4
herbs are managed for multiple uses such as food, fodder, firewood, medicinals, ornamentals, and condiments. The animals (i.e. chickens, turkeys and pigs) are fed household food remains or fodder, and through their excrements they also contribute to the recycling and maintenance of soil fertility. (3) Home-garden management can be intensified or reduced without affecting it basic structure, diversity endow the system with their high resilience. (4) Since the home-garden system is not dependent upon the rainy season, management practices can be planned throughout the year and long-term as well. Actually, secured land tenure facilitates the incorporation of short, medium and long-term activities.
The SGP Mexico has supported more than 100 agroecological and agroforestry productive projects that work in different traditional agroecosystems of the Yucatan Peninsula. There are two main agroecosystems where the CSO had put their effort: the milpa and homegardens. The Mayan family unit has managed these and other agroecosystems in an integrated and interdependent way as part of their economy and any modification of one of them will impact the other agroecosystems.
In the last decade in a joint effort with the government of Yucatan more than 3,000 organic home gardens were supported (Figure 1). In addition, in 2013 the Ministry of Social Development of the Yucatan State has already supported 2,000 (Figure 2) and the goal is to increase to 8,000 for this year. The Strategic Project presented is to systematised and evaluate the program to make recommendations that can be used.

It is urgent the need to systematized the impact of these projects and evaluate, together with the producers, government and academia how they are working, if the program can be improved and modified according the specific ecological and socioeconomic needs in order to achieve the main goal of such an important program.
The goal of this Strategic Project is to evaluate the impact of socio-environmental processes involved in both the SGP productive projects and in the governmental program currently being implemented in the poorest and more vulnerable families of several municipalities of the Yucatan State and propose recommendations and changes to contribute to regional policies to favor sustainable development in this region.
Project objectives:
1. To determine the contribution of homegardens and milpa to food security in participant families. 2. To assess role of smallholders in the mitigation and adaptation to climate change. 3. To systematize the processes and results of home gardens in the communities where they were
established in the period 2002 - 2012. 4. To favor integral capacity building through training and education as well as the design of materials
to guide different stakeholders of the program. 5. To establish a network between stakeholders that allows them to exchange: experiences, knowledge
and materials, as well as, to scale up the impact of smallholders in the environment and decision making processes of the region. Women must play a key role in the project since they usually are the managers of the homegardens.

1.4 Description of Project Activities Food Security Homegardens in Yucatan are multi-functional, however food production usually is their main function but litle is known about the role of this agroecosystem in food security. Nevertheless, it may also be that the diversity of non-food producing taxa, including taxa used for construction materials and medicine or even ornamental plants, could be important for food security because of their use in creating sustainable rural livelihoods, and indirectly, food security. To determine the status of food security of families, anthropometric information will be collected, as well as the quality and nutritional value of the food and
6
perception of food security. With anthropometric data is determined the status of household nutrition, using patterns and indicators recommended by the World Health Organization. In order to know the nutritional quality of the food, different techniques will be applied to determine the nutritional value and frequency of consumption of food, and to measure the perception of the food security a questionnaire scale Latin American and Caribbean food safety recommended by FAO will be used. The responsible of food security assessment will be Dr. Angel Lendechy who will be working other researcher from his Department and with two graduate students and 3 undergraduate students.
To assess the households socioeconomic characteristics (family size, occupation, income, poverty profiles, inequality, access to public programs, number of trees, animals, crops, etc.) a survey will be undertaken to determine if food security depends on the agroecosystems managed by locals or they are dependent on off-farm income. The responsible of the socioeconomic analysis will be Dr. Javier Becerril, from the Economic Faculty he will have other collaborators from the Faculty and three undergraduate students.
Climate change mitigation and adaptation Climate change and its consequences are now recognized amongst the major environmental
challenges for this century. Land based activities, mainly agriculture and forestry, can be both sources and sinks of greenhouse gases (GHG).
To develop improved agriculture strategies and policies, and to analyze current situations, it is necessary to be able to quantify the GHG emissions of different scenarios, illustrating the possible evolution of agricultural practices, at the farm and regional level.
Ex-ante estimations of the impact of homegardens on GHG emissions and Carbon sequestration will be calculated by using the Ex-Ante Carbon Balance Tool (EX-ACT) program developed by FAO. EX-ACT is a land-based accounting system, measuring C stock changes per unit of land, expressed in tCO2-eq/ha and year. The ex-ante C-balance is useful to select project activities with higher benefits in economic and climate change mitigation terms. Tree crown attributes or diameter at breast height can be related directly to above ground biomass through specialized allometric equations. Lanscape carbon in small agricultural systems can be mapped by integrating remote sensing and basic tree inventory methods in the field.
Dasometric data will be taken from some homegardens in order to calculate the productivity and carbon fixation. Remote sensing analysis of available satellite imagery will be used to calculate, together with hectares of land cover change, tree canopy cover, Tier 1 carbon stocks and fire ocurrence landscape carbon benefits.
Soil samples will be taken to determine organic matter OM) and carbon (C). Samples of litter production in homegardens will be taken to estimate amount of biomass that usually is burned in this agroecosystem and producers will be trained for a better management of OM.
The coordinator of this objective will be Dr. Juan José Jiménez Osornio, all work related to soils will be done by Dr. Héctor Estrada and water sampling and analysis by Dr. Angel Polanco. The responsible of GIS and databases will be M.Sc. Andres Maldonado. There will be four undergraduate students working with them.
Systematization of homegarden program (2010-2012)
Systematization aims to encourage reflection on the experience of operational processes of both institutions as well as participating communities in the homegarden program executed by SGP (2002-2012). This objective will contribute to know what were the conclusions of the groups that participated, learn from experiences and suggest changes needed for strengthening and redesign the homegarden program. It will be developed in three stages: the first consists of the recovery, sorting, classification, weighting and analysis of the information contained in documents and reports available of 10 years of implementation of solar projects. In a second moment, interviews will be held with some key community actors and participating institutions, that will allow us to deepen the information contained in the documents. The third stage is the development of focus groups in three regions of the State, will be the participatory analysis of the results from the two previous stages.
All activities undertaken in the project will consider capacity building as well as gender.
Homegardens are usually managed by women and they will be considered in any decision making process to improve the governmental program. The participants will be working in transdisciplinary teams and meetings will be held every month to follow up the project.
7
Responsible of this activity will be M.A. Margarita Zarco who works in the Department of Extension form UADY, she also will work with researchers from Social Sciences and two graduate and three undergraduate students will be collaborating with her.
The first month all the instrument that will be used will be ready as well as the sample size and communities where the project will be conducted.
Training workshops will be conducted for the promoters of SEDESOL to tune up the methodologies before starting data collection.

1.6 Plan to Ensure Community Participation
The approach of Participatory Action Research will be followed. It is possible to collaborate to make meaning using both “scientific” and “local” knowledge. In the process of the project there will be training and capacity building to develop skills, opportunities, visibility, and other kinds of power of the people of the communities. Community committees will be established since the beginning for decision making processes required during the execution of the project.
There will be workshops related to local empowerment through organization, communication and conflict resolution. The Program established by SEDESOL requires participation of local people.
Networking through the process will be important and at the end of the project the network will be formalized and it will be represented by people from different communities. It is expected that this network will interact with other that are successful such as the Milpa seed network of Yucatan, this has been also supported by SGP.
It will be encouraged the participation of the participants in radio programs to share their experiences.
1.7 Knowledge Management Different materials will be printed and make it available to producers and/or promoters. Radio programs will be used to disseminate the results of the project. Materials design by student from Social Communication Batchelor will also be utilized. Databases will be share between participants and promote their use. 1.8 Gender Mainstreaming
Homegardens in the Yucatan are mainly managed by women it is expected that most of the participants will be women but society should value what is the role of women in food security and climate change mitigation and adaptation. The same opportunities will be offer to all participants and encourage women to participate as leaders in their community committees.
1.9 Communication of Results and Replication
The Program will be working the following five years, therefore more than replication of the results it is expected to improve it through time after each evaluation. It is planned to do evaluations everything months and re-design the program with the results of the evaluation.
Different kind of publications are expected from articles in local news papers to scientific journals since students will be involved doing thesis as researchers also will follow up the program during the five years.
SECTION B: PROJECT RISKS, MONITORING & EVALUATION 2.0 Risks to Successful Implementation
There are different risks for the success of this Project: 1. Low participation of families of the communities, and 2. Participants see the program only as a subsidy and not as an opportunitty. 3. Continuation of the Program by the government it is expected it will have the support for five years but this will depend on priorities, there might be a huracane and funds need to be re-directed to help damaged populations.
