No results found.FAO establishes and publishes specifications for technical material and related formulations of agricultural pesticides, with the objective that these specifications may be used to provide an international point of reference against which products can be judged either for regulatory purposes or in commercial dealings. From 1999 onward, the development of FAO specifications follows the New Procedure, described first in the fifth edition of the "Manual on the development and use of FAO specifications for plant protection products" and later in the first edition of the “Manual on Development and Use of FAO and WHO Specifications for Pesticides” (2002) – currently available as "Manual on the development and use of FAO and WHO specifications for chemical pesticides” second edition (2022) – which is available only on the internet through the FAO and WHO web sites. This New Procedure follows a formal and transparent evaluation process. It describes the minimum data package, the procedure and evaluation applied by FAO and the experts of the FAO/WHO Joint Meeting on Pesticide Specifications (JMPS). -

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. -
MeetingMeeting documentEvaluation of Field Trials Data on the Efficacy and Selectivity of Insecticides on Locusts and Grasshoppers
Report to FAO by the Locust Pesticide Referee Group Eleventh Meeting (virtual) November 2021
2021The Locust Pesticide Referee Group (LPRG) is an independent body of experts that advises FAO on the efficacy and environmental impact of different pesticides for locust control. This advice is based on a critical review of reports submitted by industry, research institutes, plant protection departments, of other available literature, and on the experience of its members and of FAO experts. The resulting advice systematically lists pesticides suitable for locust control from the scientific point of view. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms.
