Book (stand-alone)Tool for Agroecology Performance Evaluation (TAPE) - Test version
Process of development and guidelines for application
2019Also available in:
With the help of multiple partners, FAO has developed a global analytical framework for the multidimensional assessment of the performance of agroecology: the Tool for Agroecology Performance Evaluation (TAPE), which aims to: · Inform policy makers, development institutions, and other stakeholders by creating references to the multidimensional performance of agroecology and its potential to contribute to multiple SDGs; · Build knowledge and empower producers through the collective process of producing and sharing data and evidence based on their own practices; · Support agroecological transition processes at different scales, in different locations and different timeframes by proposing a diagnostic of performances over time and by identifying areas of strengths/weaknesses and enabling/disabling environments. This document provides guidance on how to assess agroecology by carrying out a diagnostic of production systems with regard to various dimensions (environmental, social, economic) and in a variety of contexts (production systems, communities, territories, agro-ecological zones, etc.). It explains how the analytical framework proposed by FAO was developed, what its underlying principles are and what its methodological components are. This document can be used to develop projects aiming to build evidence and collect data about sustainable agriculture and the particular role of agroecological approaches. It can also be used to analyze how existing efforts to measure agroecology can contribute to building globally relevant and harmonized evidence. -
BookletEstimating the environmental impact of the Regeneration of Landscapes and Livelihoods (ROLL) project in Lesotho 2023
Also available in:
No results found.This assessment was undertaken as part of the project “Low carbon and resilient livestock development strategies for climate informed investments” (https://www.fao.org/climate-change/programmes-and-projects/detail/en/c/1401898/ ) jointly implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). The project aims to support IFAD-funded projects in Kyrgyzstan, Lesotho, Rwanda and Tajikistan to develop and implement strategies that will improve livestock production while reducing the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improving the resilience of farmers as part of the Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Program (ASAP2). This report presents the impact of the Regeneration of Landscapes and Livelihoods (ROLL) project on greenhouse gas emissions and food security associated with sheep produced mainly for wool, goats produced mainly for mohair, dairy goats, meat goats, layer chicken and hatcheries covered in the ROLL project. It also provides recommendations for livestock investments to improve production efficiency while reducing absolute emissions and/or emissions intensity. -
