Book (stand-alone)Technical bookAméliorer les programmes de nutrition - Manuel d’évaluation proactive 2004Le présent manuel d’évaluation est une étape importante dans la contribution permanente et l’expérience de la FAO afin d’aider les Pays membres à élaborer des programmes d’alimentation et de nutrition à base communautaire. C’est un besoin reconnu qu’il est nécessaire d’impliquer les communautés dans la planification et la mise en oeuvre des programmes de nutrition. La FAO, considérant que l’état nutritionnel est l’indicateur de résultat le plus important pour mesurer les progrès accomp lis dans la lutte contre la pauvreté et la sous-alimentation, est convaincue qu’il est primordial de renforcer ces programmes.

Book (stand-alone)Corporate general interestRenforcer les politiques sectorielles pour améliorer la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition
Élevage
2018Le secteur de l'élevage est un secteur complexe qui porte non seulement sur la production animale et l'agriculture, mais aussi sur l'environnement, la santé et le droit d'utilisation des terres. Aborder tous ces sujets dans le cadre d'une politique est une tâche délicate, surtout lorsqu’ il est question de tant d'objectifs concurrents : croissance économique, emploi, égalité, sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle, conservation de l'environnement et adaptation au changement climatique. Face à la nécessite de devoir répondre à une demande accrue de produits animaux comestibles par le biais industriel, les politiques devraient mieux protéger les besoins et les moyens de subsistance des petits exploitants. Les politiques peuvent également contribuer à l'examen minutieux de ce secteur et de ses effets sur l'environnement et analyser les impacts que peut avoir une consommation excessive de ces produits sur la santé humaine sans oublier le risque accru de maladies zoonotiques et alimentaires, le bien-être animal et les scandales liés à une fraude alimentaire. Cette note d'orientation sur l'élevage propose aussi bien aux experts qu’aux non-experts une série de questions importantes à poser et de mesures à prendre lorsqu’ il s’agit d’intégrer des paramètres liés à la sécurité alimentaire et à la nutrition au sein des politiques d'élevage

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms. -

After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021. -
BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.
