Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureAssessing and managing climate-change impacts on plant health 2024
Also available in:
No results found.The International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) sets forth in its Strategic Framework 2020-2030, eight development agenda items to achieve its objectives. One of these agenda items is assessing and managing the impacts of climate change on plant pests. Climate change has had an increasing impact on the health of plants and agricultural crops while rising temperatures have enabled plant pests to establish in previously uninhabitable areas. IPPC is working to raise awareness of these issues, as well as enhancing the evaluation and management of risks of climate change to plant health. IPPC is also working to enhance the recognition of phytosanitary matters in the international climate change debate. This brochure serves as a resource mobilization tool to sustain these initiatives and achieve the objectives of these development agenda items.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.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.
