    European Price Report - Issue 07/2023 July 2023 2023
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    In this issue of the European Fish Price Report, the general tendency of lower prices continued. Only 19 percent of the covered prices increased, while 35 percent went down, while the remainder stayed stable. Lower prices were generally experienced for smaller specimens, while larger sizes were sold at the same price as last month or at higher prices. Larger fish and shellfish are mainly going to the restaurant trade, which is experiencing a boom this year, with all COVID-19 restrictions abolished and tourism picking up all over the European continent.

    El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) effects on fisheries and aquaculture 2020
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    This FAO Technical Paper synthesizes current knowledge on the impact of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events on fisheries and aquaculture in the context of a changing climate. It describes the diversity of ENSO events (Chapter 2), ENSO forecasting (Chapter 3) and ENSO in the context of climate change (Chapter 4). It includes a global overview and regional assessment of ENSO impact (Chapters 5 and 6) and a focus on coral bleaching and damage to reefs and related fisheries (Chapter 7). Finally, it synthesizes the lessons learned and the perspectives for ENSO and preparedness in a warmer ocean (Chapter 10).

    Estimating global and country-level employment in agrifood systems 2023
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    Global and national policy discourse and agendas are moving beyond traditional silos of agriculture, nutrition, health, and climate change to address the challenges facing agrifood systems (AFS). In this paper, we use international labour force statistics to provide the first systematic and documented global estimate quantifying the total number of people employed in AFS. We estimate that 1.23 billion people are employed in AFS and that 3.83 billion people worldwide live in households linked to AFS-based livelihoods. However, international labour force statistics focus on the main labour activity in the last seven days and are likely to undercount the total number of people who are engaged in AFS. Using household survey data from the harmonized multi-country Rural Livelihoods Information System (RuLIS) database, we find that the number of people engaged in AFS is on average 24 percent higher than employment defined only by the main labour activity. This analysis shows the relevance of counting secondary jobs and household farming activities to identify all individuals whose livelihoods depend to some degree on AFS.
