Book (series)Technical studyNational gender profile of agriculture and rural livelihoods
Republic of Tajikistan
2025Also available in:
No results found.The Country Gender Assessment (CGA) for Tajikistan offers a comprehensive analysis of gender equality in agriculture and rural development. It identifies key gender disparities, examines their root causes and impacts, and proposes actionable recommendations for gender-responsive policies. Despite being the main agricultural workforce and playing a critical role in food security, women’s contributions remain undervalued, under-recognized, and largely unpaid. With increasing male outmigration from rural areas, women’s roles on farms are expanding, underscoring the urgent need to invest in their empowerment to boost agricultural productivity, enhance food security, and drive sustainable rural development. -

ProjectFactsheetPromoting Livelihoods Recovery and Resilience through Youth and Women-Led Resilient Value Chain Development and Entrepreneurship in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines - TCP/STV/3803 2024
Also available in:
No results found.On 9 April 2021, the La Soufrière volcano in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines erupted with several explosions over a period of several weeks, affecting most of the island's population. Farmers and local communities in the critical areas (red and orange zones) were severely affected by the heavy ash fall and pyroclastic flows, particularly in the areas closest to the volcano in the northern part of the island. In addition to major losses of tools and productive assets, reports showed extensive environmental damage and losses in critical areas, where forests and farms were wiped out, along with the destruction of large areas of staple crops such as vegetables, bananas and plantains. In addition, the eruptions were followed by heavy rains that caused flooding and lahar flows in various parts of the country. As a result, the livelihoods of vulnerable populations dependent on agriculture, livestock, fisheries and forestry were affected. The heavy deposits of volcanic ash throughout the country highlighted the need for soil and ash analysis to determine changes in nutrient composition, organic matter content, macro and micro fauna and pathogen profile, and to assess agro-edaphic and climatic suitability for existing and alternative crops. In response to the recovery and rehabilitation needs, the government prepared a priority list of immediate, medium and long-term responses. Within the priority list, two areas were identified: i) soil analysis, to determine soil rehabilitation, management requirements and value chain suitability determination by agroecological zone; ii) building a cadre of new entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector, including youth and women, and developing resilient value chains. In this context, this TCP aimed to facilitate the recovery of livelihoods and increase the resilience of food systems through the involvement of youth and women in the development of resilient value chains and entrepreneurship, by strengthening the capacity of the Ministry of Agriculture to conduct soil analysis and developing a programme to support new agricultural entrepreneurs.

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. -

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.
