Table 3.6 Underlying processes related to each access to food impact mechanism
Mechanisms and underlying processes
Studies
B1. Infrastructure
Positive
Industrial crop companies develop infrastructure that improves water access and/or provides
irrigation
Negash and Swinnen (2013); Romijn et al.
(2014); Timko et al. (2014)
Industrial crop companies construct roads that
improve access to food
Romijn et al. (2014)
B2. Market
Positive
Higher overall development in areas of industrial crop production results in the development
of new food markets
Garba et al. (2015)
B3. Food price
Positive
Industrial crops smallholders associations also
get involved in food crop production as a secondary activity, reducing local food prices
Terry (2007)
Negative
Increased local demand for food coupled with
reduced food production increases food prices
Arndt et al. (2011); Bosch and Zeller (2013);
Timko et al. (2014); van Eijck et al. (2012);
Kaminski et al. (2011); Laris and Foltz (2014)
Anderman et al. (2014)
Expansion of industrial crop production causes
the manipulation of market food prices
Kgathi et al. (2012)
B4. Income from industrial crops
Positive
Engagement in industrial crop production provides income incl. For women that is used to
buy food, thus increasing access to food in these
studies industrial crop income is the main
household income stream
Onoji et al. (2016); Matenga (2016); Terry
(2007); Terry (2012); Arndt et al. (2011); Dyer
et al. (2012); Favretto et al. (2014); German
et al. (2011); Grimsby et al. (2012); Kalinda
et al. (2015); Romijn et al. (2014); Romijn
et al. (2014); Timko et al. (2014); van Eijck
et al. (2014); Adams et al. (2016); Annan
(2013); Bello-Bravo et al. (2015); Hatskevich
et al. (2011); Naughton et al. (2017); Ismael
et al. (2002); Laris et al. (2015); Sodjinou et al.
(2015)
Engagement in industrial crop production
increases the total household income, thus
increasing access to food in these studies it is
not specified if the added income is the household main or it is additional
Greenpeace International (2012); World
Growth (2010); FEWS Net Liberia (2016);
Dam Lam et al. (2017); Kennedy (1989);
Matenga (2016); Banye (2014); Ferris et al.
(2001); Suleman et al. (2014); Bassett (2010);
Fortucci (2002); Govereha and Jayne (2003);
Kaminski et al. (2011); Theriault and Tschirley
(2014); Oluyole et al. (2009)
Labour wages increase, providing additional
income, thus increasing access to food
Borman et al. (2013); van Eijck et al. (2012)
