摘要

城市和农村地区在满足双方食品需求方面相互关联。然而,前所未有和可预见的灾害都在扰乱着粮食服务。为了解决这一问题,本文讨论了城乡协调的必要性和意义,它促进了当地资源的利用,解决了与粮食有关的直接和间接问题。一个具有足够储存能力、运输能力和食品质量的顺畅的食品系统链不仅在平时是必不可少的,在整个灾难时期也是如此。因此,本研究旨在确定破坏尼泊尔半山区粮食系统链的因素。它探讨了城市和农村地区在维持食物系统链方面的相互联系,并从抗灾角度研究了改善食物系统链的方法。本研究选取了尼泊尔加德满都和梅拉姆齐的城市和农村地区。在完成对灾民的访谈后,与农民、市政府官员、灾害专家和当地居民进行了焦点小组讨论。此外,还从抗灾角度与主要参与粮食系统链的贸易商进行了进一步讨论。谷物、牛奶和蔬菜主要从农村地区流向加德满都,而制成品则主要从城市地区供应。每到雨季,食品供应链服务一般都会因洪水而中断,在 2021 年梅拉姆奇地区的洪灾中,食品供应链服务受到了严重影响。研究结果根据城市地区的粮食系统周期分为五类。

Challenges in urban-rural food supply chains for disaster resilience in Nepal

Urban and rural areas are interconnected in fulfilling the food demands of both sides. However, both unprecedented and predictable disasters are disrupting the food service. To address this issue, this paper discusses the need and significance of urban-rural coordination, which promotes use of local resources, solving direct and indirect problems related to food. A smooth food system chain with adequate storage capacity, transportation, and food quality is essential not only during normal days but also throughout times of disaster. Therefore, this research aims to identify the factors disrupting the food system chain in the mid-hill area of Nepal. It explores the interconnection between urban and rural areas in maintaining the food system chain and investigates ways to improve it from a disaster resilience perspective. Kathmandu and Melamchi, urban and rural areas in Nepal are taken for the study. After completing interviews with disaster victims, focus group discussion was conducted with farmers, municipality government officers, disaster experts, and local people. Additionally, further discussion held with traders who are mainly involved in the food system chain from the disaster resilience perspective. Grains, milk, and vegetables primarily flow from rural areas to Kathmandu, while manufactured goods are predominantly supplied from urban areas. The food supply chain services are generally disrupted every monsoon season due to floods and were severely affected during the 2021 flood in the Melamchi area. The results of the study are clustered into five categories, depending on the city region's food system cycle.

期刊介绍: Regional Science Policy & Practice (RSPP) is the official policy and practitioner orientated journal of the Regional Science Association International. It is an international journal that publishes high quality papers in applied regional science that explore policy and practice issues in regional and local development. It welcomes papers from a range of academic disciplines and practitioners including planning, public policy, geography, economics and environmental science and related fields. Papers should address the interface between academic debates and policy development and application. RSPP provides an opportunity for academics and policy makers to develop a dialogue to identify and explore many of the challenges facing local and regional economies.
