BookletBusiness profiling and nutrition assessment of agrifood small and medium-sized enterprises and enterprise support organizations
Report
2024Also available in:
No results found.This report presents the findings of an analysis of the business profiling information and capacity gaps of agrifood small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and enterprise support organizations (ESOs) across Ethiopia, Haiti, Malawi, Mali, Niger, Papua New Guinea and South Sudan. This activity was carried out as part of a project under the Flexible Multi-Partner Mechanism (FMM), currently known as Flexible Voluntary Contribution (FVC).The data collected and the analysis provide valuable insights to policy makers and practitioners into the capacity and learning gaps to be addressed and of the challenges that SMEs and ESOs face in the targeted countries. The results showed that most of these enterprises are micro-enterprises, almost half are managed by women, and they develop a diversified portfolio of activities including production, processing, and retailing mostly in grains value chains. Most agrifood SMEs mentioned the following as their primary business challenges: limited access tofinance, input costs and infrastructure development. -

Book (stand-alone)Volume/Biomass special study: georeferenced forest volume data for Latin America 2000
Also available in:
No results found.The assessment of environmental functions of forests is essential for FAO Forest Resources Assessment 2000 (FRA 2000). It directly relates to role of forests in the carbon cycling and maintenance of biological diversity. The present report deals with forest biomass estimate and specifically describes the progress made so far towards the establishment of a geographic information system and an electronic information system, containing integrated cartographic and tabular information for data analys is, modeling and the implementation of special studies on selected thematic elements. A global database on forest biomass is needed to support the information requirements of FRA 2000, including estimates for tree volume/biomass by broad type categories and political units. Information on forest volume and biomass is important for developing global perspectives on wood supply and for computations of carbon cycling for climate change analyses.
