Book (stand-alone)Flagship农 产 品 市 场 状 况 2006 2007本《2006年农产品市场状况》是粮农组织该系列出版物的第二期。它集中阐述了发展中国家有关发展和粮食安全需求的问题,如何充分反映在其设计和执行新的有关进一步放开国际农产品市场的协仪,还包括了目前正在讨论的实现此项目标的机制。在世界贸易组织(WTO)多哈发展回合中,就如何保障发展中国家的利益问题,特别对低收入国家,如何既高度重视,但同时又顾虑忡忡,因为一些问题和辩论是复杂且有时是很具争议性的。2006年7月搁浅的多哈回合,对重新考虑今后就如何进一步削减农产品进口关税将影响不同的发展中国家方面又提供了一次机遇。是否对进一步的放开将会产生不利影响,如果产生的话,这些不利影响又是如何在制定新的贸易规则时得到解决。

Book (stand-alone)Technical book粮食展望―2004年12月第4期 2004粮农组织估计2004 年世界谷物产量为创记录的20.42 亿吨,较9 月 的预测大幅增加,比2003 年增产8.4%。预测2004/05 年度谷物产量高于利用量,可能使库存量出现五年以 来的首次增加。预测2004/05 年度世界谷物利用量比上一季节增加2.4%。预测到2004/05 年度季末世界谷物库存量将增加至4.41 亿吨。增加 量的大部分为主要出口国的玉米和小麦储备。相反,预计稻米库存量将 再次减少。国际小麦和粗粮价格普遍低于一年前,但稻米价格仍大大高于2003 年的水平。预测2004/05 年度全球谷物贸易量将下降,主要是由于欧盟需求减 少抵消了发展中国家,特别是中国,的预计进口增幅还有余。2004 年年底全球肉类价格略有趋稳,原因是对原疫区的进口解禁和 因此造成的出口供应量的增加。2005 年肉类生产量和贸易量应将继续增 长。 2004 年全年国际奶制品价格趋升,到11 月,粮农组织奶制品价格 指数达1990 年以来的最高水平。价格上涨的压力主要是国际需求增长的 结果,特别是发展中国家对全脂奶粉的需求。在上一销售季节油籽价格达创纪录的水平,但自4 月以来大幅下 跌,主要是由于 美国取得丰收。国际市场食糖价格普遍坚挺,原因是世界食糖消费量相对于产量持 续大幅增加。

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020
Transforming food systems for affordable healthy diets
2020Updates for many countries have made it possible to estimate hunger in the world with greater accuracy this year. In particular, newly accessible data enabled the revision of the entire series of undernourishment estimates for China back to 2000, resulting in a substantial downward shift of the series of the number of undernourished in the world. Nevertheless, the revision confirms the trend reported in past editions: the number of people affected by hunger globally has been slowly on the rise since 2014. The report also shows that the burden of malnutrition in all its forms continues to be a challenge. There has been some progress for child stunting, low birthweight and exclusive breastfeeding, but at a pace that is still too slow. Childhood overweight is not improving and adult obesity is on the rise in all regions.The report complements the usual assessment of food security and nutrition with projections of what the world may look like in 2030, if trends of the last decade continue. Projections show that the world is not on track to achieve Zero Hunger by 2030 and, despite some progress, most indicators are also not on track to meet global nutrition targets. The food security and nutritional status of the most vulnerable population groups is likely to deteriorate further due to the health and socio economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.The report puts a spotlight on diet quality as a critical link between food security and nutrition. Meeting SDG 2 targets will only be possible if people have enough food to eat and if what they are eating is nutritious and affordable. The report also introduces new analysis of the cost and affordability of healthy diets around the world, by region and in different development contexts. It presents valuations of the health and climate-change costs associated with current food consumption patterns, as well as the potential cost savings if food consumption patterns were to shift towards healthy diets that include sustainability considerations. The report then concludes with a discussion of the policies and strategies to transform food systems to ensure affordable healthy diets, as part of the required efforts to end both hunger and all forms of malnutrition. -

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food and Agriculture 2019
Moving forward on food loss and waste reduction
2019The need to reduce food loss and waste is firmly embedded in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Food loss and waste reduction is considered important for improving food security and nutrition, promoting environmental sustainability and lowering production costs. However, efforts to reduce food loss and waste will only be effective if informed by a solid understanding of the problem. This report provides new estimates of the percentage of the world’s food lost from production up to the retail level. The report also finds a vast diversity in existing estimates of losses, even for the same commodities and for the same stages in the supply chain. Clearly identifying and understanding critical loss points in specific supply chains – where considerable potential exists for reducing food losses – is crucial to deciding on appropriate measures. The report provides some guiding principles for interventions based on the objectives being pursued through food loss and waste reductions, be they in improved economic efficiency, food security and nutrition, or environmental sustainability.
