Integrated Food Energy Systems (IFES)
Presentation of the tool
Anne Bogdanski/Olivier Dubois
GBEP Workshop
“Achieving sustainable bioenergy development and food
security”
Rome, 11 December 2013
Type 2:
Biomass use optimisation through
recycling of all by-products
Integrated Food Energy Systems – Two types
Type 1:
Optimising land use efficiency of
food and energy production on the
same land Pig-biogas system - Vietnam
Agroforestry system in the Maldives
The challenge is to scale up good ones
Where do we stand on IFES?
What we have:
� Anecdotal evidence of innovative cases
� Many pilot projects –
� Few islands of success
What we need:What we need:
Proof that these innovations are indeed successful and can make a
difference :
• Sustainable
• Replicable
What FAO has done
With The Netherland’s support, in 2012-2013
FAO has developed an analytical framework/
guidance approach to assess the sustainability
and replicability of existing IFES and replicability of existing IFES
Components of the IFES analytical framework
• Analyzing the socio-cultural context: Understanding
the farmers’ perspective through Rapid Rural
Appraisal methodologies
• Assessing sustainability: Strengthening the evidence
base through an indicator-based frameworkbase through an indicator-based framework
• Assessing replicability: Analyzing the enabling
environment through a comprehensive checklist
Step 3. Select Criteria and Indicators
Replicability assessment through lead questions
• What are the enabling or constraining project features
that simplify or complicate the replication of IFES?
• What is the role of stakeholders and institutions in
the replication of IFES?
• How does the policy environment enable or disable
the replication of IFES?
• How does human and technical capacity shape the
replication of IFES?
Next steps
• Pre-testing/Tool sharpening in one or two pilot sites
• First testing foreseen in 2014 within an FAO/UNDP
project in Viet Nam (Biogas)
• Discussions to also do it in Brazil (ITAIPU/Biogas & • Discussions to also do it in Brazil (ITAIPU/Biogas &
biodiesel cases)
• It would be good to also do it in Africa
