ASIE : Pourquoi certains pays d'Asie du Sud-Est pourraient voir leur taux d’obésité exploser   | ASIES | Scoop.it

Si beaucoup de pays d'Asie du Sud-Est échappaient jusqu'à présent à l'épidémie d'obésité qui touche presque tous les pays du monde, il semble que cela pourrait changer. Une étude montre que près de 50 % des produits alimentaires commercialisés pour les nourrissons et les jeunes enfants dans sept capitales de cette région du monde sont des aliments ultra-transformés. En plus d’être riches en sel, en sucre, 30 % de ces produits contiennent des additifs, dont certains sont même non autorisés.

CHINA : It continues to lead the world in wind and solar

CHINA : It continues to lead the world in wind and solar | ASIES | Scoop.it

China is cementing its position as the global leader in renewables development with 180 GW of utility-scale solar and 159 GW of wind power already under construction. The total of the two is nearly twice as much as the rest of the world combined, and
enough to power all of South Korea, according to new data from Global Energy Monitor (GEM). The 339 GW of utility-scale solar and wind that have reached the construction stage accounts for one-third of all proposed wind and solar capacity in China, far
surpassing the global construction rate of just 7%, according to GEM’s latest Global Solar Power Tracker and Global Wind Power Tracker updates. The stark contrast in construction rates illustrates the active nature of China’s commitment to building
renewables projects.

INDIA: The world’s next food superpower

INDIA: The world’s next food superpower | ASIES | Scoop.it

For years the Araku Valley, deep in the mountains on India’s east coast, was mired in poverty and rocked by Maoist violence. The government classifies most of its inhabitants as “particularly vulnerable tribal groups”; for generations they relied on slash-and-burn farming to scrape by. But now locals grow high-grade coffee that is sold at high prices to posh Europeans. Araku Coffee, the company that processes and markets their berries, runs cafés in fancy bits of Bangalore, Mumbai and Paris. The valley’s transformation is an agricultural success story. It is also a glimpse of what—with the right policies—the rest of rural Indiamight achieve.

CHINA: The role of agriculture in modern China

CHINA: The role of agriculture in modern China | ASIES | Scoop.it

China is often viewed through the lenses of commerce, geopolitics, and political economy. At the fringes of these lies Chinese agriculture—and its domestic and global impact. This brief analyses the evolution of Chinese agriculture, from the revolutionary Maoist period to the present. It describes the Chinese government’s strategy to ensure food self-sufficiency for an increasingly voracious consumer base. In particular, it examines the production of two Chinese staples—soy and pork—to understand future trends in the country’s agricultural economy and its impact on international markets. It finds that in China, policymaking in agriculture, like in most other domains, is synonymous with experimentation. While not all experiments succeed, they provide valuable lessons.
