Strengthening Capacity in Agriculture, Livelihoods and Environment (SCALE) works to strengthen the impact, sustainability, and scalability of FFP-funded agriculture, natural resource management, and off-farm livelihood activities in both emergency and development contexts to ensure that communities and families are fully benefiting from the initiatives.

Defining Alternative Livelihoods
• Why are definitions important?
• Where do the lines get blurry?
• Does it really matter?
![Page 11: WHAT’S IN A NAME? · 2019. 12. 19. · WHAT’S IN A NAME? March 7, 2019 Facilitator: • Andrea Mottram, SCALE Director, Mercy Corps Presenters: • Adam Reinhart, USAID Office](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051902/5ff11b7a1556f421da30d136/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Agricultural Market Systems
Agricultural Market System: The dynamic interaction between people, relationships, functions, and rules that
determine how agricultural goods are produced, accessed, exchanged, and consumed.
On-Farm: Farming and agricultural production, including casual and seasonal labor. From the value chain lens, on-farm work occurs at the “beginning” of the value chain.
Off-Farm: Agriculture-related income beyond the farm, including the the “middle” and “end” of the value chain as agricultural goods leave the farm to ultimately reach the consumer.
![Page 12: WHAT’S IN A NAME? · 2019. 12. 19. · WHAT’S IN A NAME? March 7, 2019 Facilitator: • Andrea Mottram, SCALE Director, Mercy Corps Presenters: • Adam Reinhart, USAID Office](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051902/5ff11b7a1556f421da30d136/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Alternative Livelihoods
Alternative Livelihoods:1) Pursuing multiple, diversified income streams; 2) Moving from
cultivating illicit or harmful crops to legal sources of income; 3) Replacing agriculture-based income with other sources.
Off-Farm: Agriculture-related income beyond the farm, including the “middle” and “end” of the value chain as agricultural goods leave the farm to ultimately reach the consumer.
Non-Farm: Non-farm income exists outside of agricultural market systems. Some refer to non-farm as non climate-dependent income.

But Always Remember
While eliminating ambiguity around
alternative livelihoods terms is
useful, the absolute categorization
of these activities is not wholly
critical, as long as the interventions,
strategies, principles, and outcomes
are sound.

Differences in Programming
• Individual targeting/HH level layering
• Value chain analysis for ancillary services and labor market assessments
• Soft and hard skills (counselling, mentoring)
• Highly diversified options –(business planning, market assessments, access to finance)
• Urban – rural linkages (location of analysis/placement)

Examples from Save the Children - work in progress
Indonesia – Youth in Cocoa supply chain
• Foundational skills for youth
• Integrating agriculture curriculum into vocational school system
• Training youth for opportunities within Cacao Supply Chain (nurseries, pruning)
Nepal – Youth, women, ultra poor HH’s
• Financial literacy, life skills entrepreneurship skills
• Off-farm options (VAHW’s, value addition, agro-dealers)
• Certified skills (construction, electricians TBD)
• Safe/productive migration and productive investment of remittances
