    The Stakeholder Meeting to Present and Discuss the FAO Study Report on Cross-Border Trade in Artisanal Smoked Fish in West Africa was jointly organized by the Value Chain Development Team (NFIMV) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the FAO Representation in Togo (FAOTG). The Meeting aimed to share, discuss and validate the results of this study report, and to gather further recommendations from the various stakeholders. It also paved the way for the development of a strategic plan to guide the way forward in improving cross-border trade in smoked fish and strengthening trade integration in the subregion in light of the recommendations made and the opportunities offered by regional fish trade, in particular the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The meeting included a session of ten thematic presentations, group sessions on key policy recommendations, as well as concluding remarks and next steps. It was attended by 27 representatives of fisheries ministries, fish processors and traders from the five countries concerned (Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Togo), and FAO representatives.La réunion des parties prenantes pour présenter et discuter le rapport d’étude de la FAO sur le commerce transfrontalier du poisson fumé artisanal en Afrique de l’Ouest a été organisée conjointement par l’équipe de développement de la chaîne de valeur (NFIMV) de l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture (FAO) et le bureau-pays de la FAO au Togo (FAOTG). La réunion visait à partager, discuter et valider les résultats de ce rapport d’étude, et à recueillir de plus amples recommandations de la part des différentes parties prenantes. Elle a également ouvert la voie à l’élaboration d’un plan stratégique visant à améliorer le commerce transfrontalier du poisson fumé et à renforcer l’intégration commerciale dans la sous-région à la lumière des recommandations formulées et des opportunités offertes par le commerce régional du poisson, en particulier la Zone de libre-échange continentale africaine (ZLECAf). La réunion comprenait une session de dix présentations thématiques, des sessions de groupe sur les principales recommandations politiques, ainsi que des remarques finales et les prochaines étapes. Y ont participé 27 représentants des ministères de la pêche, des transformateurs/transformatrices et des commerçant(e)s de poisson des cinq pays concernés (Bénin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana et Togo), ainsi que des représentants de la FAO.

    Also available in:
    No results found.
    There has been a marked upward trend in production and consumption of fruits and vegetables in Asia and the Pacific in recent years. Along with rising consumer demand has come greater awareness of food safety issues and increased need for convenience and quality. Selection of high quality horticultural produce for processing and implementation of good practices during processing operations are required to assure both the quality of the produce and the safety of the final product. This technical guide reviews, from a theoretical and practical perspective, the critical issues that must be addressed for fresh-cut produce to meet consumer demand for convenience, quality and safety. A case study on fresh-cut processing in Thailand is included. The guide should be of practical value to small processors, trainers and extension workers who provide support to individuals engaged in production of fresh-cut tropical produce for sale.

    The impact of climate variability and extremes on agriculture and food security - An analysis of the evidence and case studies
    Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2018
    2020
    Also available in:

    Global climate studies show that not only temperatures are increasing and precipitation levels are becoming more varied, all projections indicate these trends will continue. It is therefore imperative that we understand changes in climate over agricultural areas and their impacts on agriculture production and food security. This study presents new analysis on the impact of changing climate on agriculture and food security, by examining the evidence on recent climate variability and extremes over agricultural areas and the impact of these on agriculture and food security. It shows that more countries are exposed to increasing climate variability and extremes and the frequency (the number of years exposed in a five-year period) and intensity (the number of types of climate extremes in a five-year period) of exposure over agricultural areas have increased. The findings of this study are compelling and bring urgency to the fact that climate variability and extremes are proliferating and intensifying and are contributing to a rise in global hunger. The world’s 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, herders, fishers, and forest-dependent people, who derive their food and income from renewable natural resources, are most at risk and affected. Actions to strengthen the resilience of livelihoods and food systems to climate variability and extremes urgently need to be scaled up and accelerated.
