CICI - 2003, 3 - 7 février 2003, Guatemala City, Guatemala
2003Le Comité organisateur de la Conférence internationale sur la contribution des critères et indicateurs de la gestion forestière durable: Perspectives futures (CICI - 2003) regroupant l'Instituto Nacional de Bosques (Guatemala), la FAO, l'OIBT, le Département d'Etat des Etats-Unis, les Services forestiers des Etats-Unis et le Ministère finlandais de l'agriculture et des forêts, souhaite exprimer sa reconnaissance au gouvernement du Guatemala, dont son Ministère de l'agriculture et sa Direction de l'immigration nationale et des affaires étrangères, pour leur contribution active à l'organisation de la Conférence internationale ayant permis sa réussite. Sa reconnaissance va également au Président et au Vice-président de la Conférence, aux présidents et rapporteurs des Groupes de travail, à l'orateur de l'allocution liminaire et aux auteurs et présentateurs des documents de base et des études de cas. Pendant toute la période préparatoire à la CICI - 2003, ont été reçues un grand nombre de suggestions utiles et constructives de la part de membres du Comité consultatif international de la CICI - 2003 et d'autres experts de divers pays et organisations. La réussite de cette réunion n'aurait pu être assurée sans ce concours. On espère que les résultats de cette Conférence serviront à renforcer l'élaboration, la mise en oeuvre et l'utilisation par les pays de critères et indicateurs de la gestion forestière durable, en leur permettant de s'en servir comme outils dans leurs suivi et évaluation de l'état et de l'évolution des forêts, ainsi que dans la production de rapports concernant ces dernières. On espère également que les politiques et pratiques nationales et la coopération et la collaboration internationales tireront parti de ces outils dans la poursuite de la gestion forestière durable, qui n'est autre que la contribution du secteur forestier au développement durable. -

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.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food and Agriculture 2022
Leveraging agricultural automation for transforming agrifood systems
2022Automation has been shaping world agriculture since the early twentieth century. Motorized mechanization has brought significant benefits in terms of improved productivity, reduced drudgery and more efficient allocation of labour, but also some negative environmental impacts. More recently, a new generation of digital agricultural automation technologies has appeared, with the potential to further enhance productivity, as well as resilience, while also addressing the environmental sustainability challenges driven by past mechanization.The State of Food and Agriculture 2022 looks into the drivers of agricultural automation, including the more recent digital technologies. Based on 27 case studies, the report analyses the business case for adoption of digital automation technologies in different agricultural production systems across the world. It identifies several barriers preventing inclusive adoption of these technologies, particularly by small-scale producers. Key barriers are low digital literacy and lack of an enabling infrastructure, such as connectivity and access to electricity, in addition to financial constraints. Based on the analysis, the publication suggests policies to ensure that disadvantaged groups in developing regions can benefit from agricultural automation and that automation contributes to sustainable and resilient agrifood systems.
