ProjectFactsheetAppui à la modernisation de l’agriculture irriguée au Maroc - UTF/MOR/038/MOR 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Le Maroc a signé en 2010 un accord de prêt avec la Banque internationale pour la reconstruction et le développement pour mettre en oeuvre le Projet de modernisation de l'agriculture irriguée dans le bassin de l'Oum Er Rbia(PROMER), afin d’améliorer l’efficience et la durabilité de l’irrigation et lutter ainsi contre la raréfaction de l’eau. Le projet ciblait 20 000 ha situés dans les périmètres de Tadla, Doukkala et Haouz, et les principales interventions envisagées portaient sur l’amélioration du service de l’eau (réseaux sous pression, distribution à la demande); l’appui aux agriculteurs (accès aux technologies, financement, formation); le renforcement des agences d’exécution (suivi, gestion, télédétection). Dans ce cadre, la convention FAO-UTF/MOR/038/MOR a été conclue entre la FAO et le Ministère de l’agriculture, de la pêche maritime, du développement rural et des eaux et forêts dans l’objectif d’assurer une assistance technique à l’Unité centrale de gestion du projet (UCGP) du PROMER par la mobilisation de l’expertise requise et l’organisation des formations identifiées pour le renforcement des capacités du personnel de la Direction de l’irrigation et de l’aménagement de l'espace agricole (DIAEA) et des offices régionaux de mise en valeur agricole (ORMVA). -
Book (stand-alone)FlagshipL’État des ressources en terres et en eau pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture dans la région du Proche-Orient et de l’Afrique du Nord
Rapport de synthèse
2023L'État des ressources en terre et en eau (SOLAW) dans la région du Proche-Orient et de l'Afrique du Nord (NENA) fait partie d'une série emblématique que la FAO a lancée en 2011. Étant l’une des régions les plus pauvres en terres et en eau au monde, la préservation de ces ressources est d'une importance capitale pour assurer la sécurité alimentaire et répondre à la demande croissante de nourriture. Cette publication vise à fournir aux décideurs politiques, aux institutions et aux autres parties prenantes une vue d'ensemble de la situation actuelle des terres et de l'eau et de l'impact du changement climatique et de l'urbanisation sur la production alimentaire afin de faciliter une prise de décision éclairée. Le rapport présente les dernières statistiques sur les ressources en terres et en eau de la région et souligne les défis importants auxquels la région NENA est confrontée à l'horizon 2030 et au-delà. Il présente également des initiatives positives de la région et une série d'alternatives disponibles pour aider les autorités à répondre aux problématiques des ressources en terres et en eau. -

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. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
2023This report provides an update on global progress towards the targets of ending hunger (SDG Target 2.1) and all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2) and estimates on the number of people who are unable to afford a healthy diet. Since its 2017 edition, this report has repeatedly highlighted that the intensification and interaction of conflict, climate extremes and economic slowdowns and downturns, combined with highly unaffordable nutritious foods and growing inequality, are pushing us off track to meet the SDG 2 targets. However, other important megatrends must also be factored into the analysis to fully understand the challenges and opportunities for meeting the SDG 2 targets. One such megatrend, and the focus of this year’s report, is urbanization. New evidence shows that food purchases in some countries are no longer high only among urban households but also among rural households. Consumption of highly processed foods is also increasing in peri-urban and rural areas of some countries. These changes are affecting people’s food security and nutrition in ways that differ depending on where they live across the rural–urban continuum. This timely and relevant theme is aligned with the United Nations General Assembly-endorsed New Urban Agenda, and the report provides recommendations on the policies, investments and actions needed to address the challenges of agrifood systems transformation under urbanization and to enable opportunities for ensuring access to affordable healthy diets for everyone. -
Book (series)Technical studyThe 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
2020Also available in:
No results found.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.
