Du champ au marché
2007Le secteur de la production de fruits et légumes de l'Amérique latine, des Caraïbes, de l'Asie et de l'Europe de l'Est, fait face à une nouvelle situation où, d'une part, les chaînes de supermarchés représentent un pourcentage croissant du marché de détail national et où, dʼautre part, les producteurs de fruits et légumes non traditionnels et hors saison sont en concurrence sur le marché m o ndia l , d e plus en plus e x i g eant. Les producteurs qui ont les fonds nécessaires, les capacités de gestion et les qualifications technologiques adéquates relèvent dʼores et déjà les nouveaux défis, tandis que les petits fermiers se retrouvent de plus en plus marginalisés. Ces derniers se heurteront à des conditions de marché inégales, à moins quʼils ne changent leurs pratiques et satisfassent aux besoins d'un réseau de commercialisation alimentaire moderne. Indépendamment du système de production, le défi technologique vise à augmenter les revenus grâce à l'utilisation raisonnable d es ressources disponibles, en réduisant les coûts de production et les pertes après récolte, en augmentant la compétitivité et la valeur ajoutée du produit fini. Cʼest sur la base de ces principes que ce manuel analyse les techniques capables de réduire les pertes après récolte et dʼassurer la qualité et la sécurité du produit, de la moisson à la consommation. Le nouveau concept de la qualité implique de fournir à la fois un produit compétitif et un produit qui réponde aux attentes des rev endeurs et des consommateurs.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023
Urbanization, agrifood systems transformation and healthy diets across the rural–urban continuum
2023This report provides an update on global progress towards the targets of ending hunger (SDG Target 2.1) and all forms of malnutrition (SDG Target 2.2) and estimates on the number of people who are unable to afford a healthy diet. Since its 2017 edition, this report has repeatedly highlighted that the intensification and interaction of conflict, climate extremes and economic slowdowns and downturns, combined with highly unaffordable nutritious foods and growing inequality, are pushing us off track to meet the SDG 2 targets. However, other important megatrends must also be factored into the analysis to fully understand the challenges and opportunities for meeting the SDG 2 targets. One such megatrend, and the focus of this year’s report, is urbanization. New evidence shows that food purchases in some countries are no longer high only among urban households but also among rural households. Consumption of highly processed foods is also increasing in peri-urban and rural areas of some countries. These changes are affecting people’s food security and nutrition in ways that differ depending on where they live across the rural–urban continuum. This timely and relevant theme is aligned with the United Nations General Assembly-endorsed New Urban Agenda, and the report provides recommendations on the policies, investments and actions needed to address the challenges of agrifood systems transformation under urbanization and to enable opportunities for ensuring access to affordable healthy diets for everyone. -
Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022
Repurposing food and agricultural policies to make healthy diets more affordable
2022This year’s report should dispel any lingering doubts that the world is moving backwards in its efforts to end hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition in all its forms. We are now only eight years away from 2030, but the distance to reach many of the SDG 2 targets is growing wider each year. There are indeed efforts to make progress towards SDG 2, yet they are proving insufficient in the face of a more challenging and uncertain context. The intensification of the major drivers behind recent food insecurity and malnutrition trends (i.e. conflict, climate extremes and economic shocks) combined with the high cost of nutritious foods and growing inequalities will continue to challenge food security and nutrition. This will be the case until agrifood systems are transformed, become more resilient and are delivering lower cost nutritious foods and affordable healthy diets for all, sustainably and inclusively. -
DocumentOther documentReducing inequalities for food security and nutrition
A report by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition
2023The report “Reducing inequalities for food security and nutrition” has been developed by the High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE-FSN) following the request by the United Nations Committee on World Food Security (CFS) as included in its Programme of Work (MYPoW 2020-2023). In particular, the CFS requested the HLPE-FSN to develop a report to: (i) analyse evidence relating to how inequalities in access to assets (particularly land, other natural resources and finance) and in incomes within food systems impede opportunities for many actors to overcome food insecurity and malnutrition; (ii) analyse the drivers of inequalities and provide recommendations on entry points to address these; and (iii) identify areas requiring further research and data collection. This report will inform the ensuing CFS thematic workstream on inequalities, aiming at addressing the root causes of food insecurity with a focus on those “most affected by hunger and malnutrition”.
