    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.

    What will be needed to realize the vision of a world free from hunger and malnutrition? After shedding light on the nature of the challenges that agriculture and food systems are facing now and throughout the 21st century, the study provides insights into what is at stake and what needs to be done. “Business as usual” is not an option. Major transformations in agricultural systems, rural economies, and natural resources management are necessary. The present study was undertaken for the quadrennial review of FAO’s strategic framework and for the preparation of the Organization Medium-Term plan 2018-2021.

    The present study describes the main programmes and strategies to concentrate agribusiness development in MENA countries. The study of the examples of agribusiness competitiveness initiatives undertaken in the region places an emphasis on the new elements introduced in the revised agro-industrial policy, the common and distinctive features of the territorial agro-industrial programmes across the region, and the different level of maturity or sophistication achieved by the different initiatives. MENA’s recent agro-industrial plans based on the food pole concept represents a new generation of policy models that introduces six major changes. First, there has been a transition from top-down to bottom-up agro-industrial policies. Second, innovation and FDI attraction have been pinpointed as a key driver for agro-industrial development in MENA countries.
