DocumentOther documentUtilización de los resultados de la evaluación de riesgos microbiológicos para elaborar estrategias prácticas de gestión de riesgos: Parámetros para mejorar la inocuidad de los alimentos
Informe
2006En 2004 la FAO y la OMS convinieron en que era necesario seguir trabajando en este ámbito, lo que fue refrendado por el Comité del Codex sobre Higiene de los Alimentos. La FAO y la OMS pusieron en marcha entonces un programa de actividades destinadas a este fin, con el objetivo final de suministrar directrices sobre la aplicación de la ERM para establecer objetivos cuantitativos específicos o normas en esta materia. Dichas actividades han incluido la formación de varios grupos de trabajo para co nsiderar estos asuntos y los resultados de la evaluación de riesgos microbiológicos a fin de elaborar medidas de control de los alimentos, haciendo hincapié en el establecimiento de objetivos o parámetros y su aplicación. Los resultados de estos grupos de trabajo y otros documentos pertinentes se analizaron y debatieron en una reunión de expertos convocada en Kiel, Alemania, del 3 al 7 de abril de 2006. El presente informe tiene como finalidad resumir los recientes debates internacionales y sus resultados y presentar una visión general de la situación actual en lo que respecta a la aplicación de la ERM en la gestión de la inocuidad de los alimentos. Aunque se han realizado progresos significativos en los últimos años, todavía subsisten muchos problemas

Book (stand-alone)High-profileStatus of the World's Soil Resources: Main Report 2015
Also available in:
No results found.The SWSR is a reference document on the status of global soil resources that provides regional assessments of soil change. The information is based on peer-reviewed scientific literature, complemented with expert knowledge and project outputs. It provides a description and a ranking of ten major soil threats that endanger ecosystem functions, goods and services globally and in each region separately. Additionally, it describes direct and indirect pressures on soils and ways and means to combat s oil degradation. The report contains a Synthesis report for policy makers that summarizes its findings, conclusions and recommendations.The full report has been divided into sections and individual chapters for ease of downloading:

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of the World's Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture (SOLAW)
Managing systems at risk
2011This edition of The State of the World’s Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture presents objective and comprehensive information and analyses on the current state, trends and challenges facing two of the most important agricultural production factors: land and water. Land and water resources are central to agriculture and rural development, and are intrinsically linked to global challenges of food insecurity and poverty, climate change adaptation and mitigation, as well as d egradation and depletion of natural resources that affect the livelihoods of millions of rural people across the world. Current projections indicate that world population will increase from 6.9 billion people today to 9.1 billion in 2050. In addition, economic progress, notably in the emerging countries, translates into increased demand for food and diversified diets. World food demand will surge as a result, and it is projected that food production will increase by 70 percent in t he world and by 100 percent in the developing countries. Yet both land and water resources, the basis of our food production, are finite and already under heavy stress, and future agricultural production will need to be more productive and more sustainable at the same time. -
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.
