BookletCorporate general interestAgrifood solutions to climate change
FAO's work to tackle the climate crisis
2023Amid a worsening climate crisis and slow progress in cutting greenhouse gases, sustainable agrifood systems practices can help countries and communities to adapt, build resilience and mitigate emissions, ensuring food security and nutrition for a growing global population. FAO is working with countries and partners from government to community level to simultaneously address the challenges of food security, climate change and biodiversity loss.But none of this will ultimately succeed unless the world commits to a significant increase in the quality and quantity of climate finance. -
Book (stand-alone)Manual / guidePathways to climate-resilient net zero supply chains
A guide for global agrifood businesses
2025Also available in:
No results found.This guide presents a framework designed to help agrifood companies make their supply chains more resilient to climate risks while reducing emissions, in alignment with the nationally determined contributions and national adaptation plans of the countries where they source, produce, buy, and sell products. At its core, this framework helps businesses move beyond high-level climate commitments and translate net zero and resilience goals into concrete actions that align with national priorities. The framework comprises four key steps: 1. Build management commitment for climate action in supply chains; 2. Implement climate adaptation strategies in supply chains; 3. Reduce supply chain greenhouse gas emissions through targeted mitigation actions; and 4. Track, evaluate, and disclose progress to ensure continuous improvement.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
2025While some progress and recovery have been made in recent years, the world is still above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and far from eradicating hunger and food insecurity by 2030 (SDG Target 2.1). Similarly, despite some progress in the global nutrition targets, the world is not on track to achieve SDG Target 2.2. Among other factors, persistent food price inflation has slowed this momentum.The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025 highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. Vulnerable groups, including low-income households, women, and rural communities, can be particularly affected by food price inflation, risking setbacks in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forwards. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Additionally, it calls for better data systems and sustained investment in resilient agrifood systems to build long-term food security and nutrition. These coordinated actions are vital to reignite progress towards ending hunger and malnutrition by 2030. -
