The IEMO CISRI International Anti Famine Strategy IAFS is an innovative campaign deemed to mitigate the next devastating famines and droughts at regional and sub-regional areas especially in Africa, Latin America and Asia.
According to FAO and UNICEF data we are facing the biggest incoming food crisis of this century since we are losing a great amount of agricultural produce every year, due to:
-
Exponential growth of energy costs, also for agricultural traction and processing
-
Unexpected increased growth of fertilizer and pesticide costs at global level
-
Decrease of rainfall in Least Developed Countries, due to climate change
The current Horn of Africa famine, affecting especially Somalia and the next incumbent Sub-Saharan droughts a d dryness are leading to higher exposure to further food crisis and malnutrition, in first instance due to lack of local produce, secondly to the reduction of imported crops at an affordable price.
It will cause, according to IEMO projections the premature death of 200 millions people in the next four years, as victims of this massive agricultural retrocession.
This imminent and inhuman scenario can be stopped or at least strongly mitigated through the yield of hyper productive crops, in addition to conventional agricultural produce, which is the basic concept of the IEMO-CISRI International Ante Famine Strategy (IAFS)
The Strategy is based in fact on the use of the following hyper-productive crops:
-
Moringa Vitals (150 tons /per hectare/ per year)
-
Spirulina Platensis (50 tons /per hectare/per year)
-
Psophocarpus Tetragonobolus) (40 t/hectare/year)
-
various hyper productive crops as Chlorella, Lupins, Oversize Pumpkins
-
innovative water saving and purification techniques.
