    No results found.

    The impacts of the 2025 drought in Afghanistan are threatening the survival of rural households across half the country, compounding one of the world’s largest food crises. With widespread rainfed crop failure, severe pasture loss and alarming groundwater depletion, farming and pastoralist communities are rapidly losing their ability to cope. In response, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) seeks USD 34.5 million to support 1.04 million people with time-critical agricultural assistance to protect livestock, restore food production and sustain livelihoods. This document outlines the impact of the crisis on agricultural and pastoral systems, FAO’s planned response and urgent funding needs.

    This third edition of the State of Mediterranean and Black Sea Fisheries provides a comprehensive overview of the status of fisheries in the region, looking at their main features and trends, in order to better inform their management and better examine current and future challenges that they will face in the near future. The aim of this report is to produce a document that could provide useful analysis and direction for decision-making and future action. In this respect, this publication also represents a convenient source of information for the FAO Committee on Fisheries and offers a practical complement to the data provided in the State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture published by the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department. This volume includes seven chapters divided into two sections: a first part on the status and trends of different aspects of Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries, including fleet, catches, socio-economic variables and bycatch, and a second part that focuses on the management of Mediterranean and Black Sea fisheries, including an overview on small-scale fisheries. This report is based to a large extent on the most up-to-date data available submitted by GFCM contracting and cooperating non-contracting parties, including information on stock status, national catches, fleet and socio-economic information up to 2018. It is also complemented with information from other sources.
