Ecological, dietary, and socio-economic data from 10 smallholder farming villages in Jumla District, Nepal, 2021-2022

This is a transdisciplinary dataset from ten smallholder farming villages in Patarasi Rural Municipality, Jumla District, Nepal collected during 2021 and 2022. The human component of the dataset includes fortnightly 24-hour dietary recall surveys and monthly anthropometry surveys of 721 participants (adult males, adult females, adolescent girls and children under five) from 200 smallholder households collected over a twelve-month period. For each household, there is also data on socioeconomic status, farming practices, cooking practices and beekeeping practices. The ecological component of the dataset includes plant-pollinator interaction data and flowering phenology data from the same ten farming villages as well as the results of a pollinator exclusion field experiment in fifteen replicate sites along an altitudinal gradient in this region. Taken together, these datasets enable us to understand more about: a) people’s diets, nutritional status and socioeconomic status in rural Nepal; b) which crops provide their nutrients and how these crops are grown; c) which insects pollinate these crops, and; d) how climate change is likely to impact the system.

Statement
The datasets were collected by a team of 20 full-time field staff as part of the Micro-Poll Project (The Pollination of Nepal’s Micronutrient-rich Crops in a Changing Climate) which was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) [NE/T013621/1], National Science Foundation (NSF) and Academy of Finland (AKA); coordinated through the Belmont Forum Climate, Environment and Health Collaborative Research Action, with further funding from Bristol Centre for Agricultural Innovation. Data were collected in this field and input on smartphones using a custom-built data collection app in CommCare Version 2.48.3 (http://www.commcarehq.org/home/) and uploaded to a secure private server. Data were subsequently anonymised (where relevant) by a data manager from HERD International, Nepal to remove all person-identifiable information and then cleaned to remove errors. Where relevant, datasets were merged and summarised to aid analysis and interpretation.
