The potential for backyard production

 Backyard production is a cultural heritage and a socio-economic backbone for rural families with low incomes.
● They are a source of production, and as they are a large number of holdings (2.2 million),
● They have a substantial political relevance.

● We estimate that backyard farming is likely to stay in the medium term (few decades).
 Identification and registration, and implementation and enforcement of regulation of holdings is limited
 The extent to which the commercial market is affected by the backyard production is unclear.
