Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureSyrian Arab Republic: Humanitarian Response Plan 2023 2023
Also available in:
No results found.With the conflict now in its thirteenth year, the Syrian Arab Republic continues to face insecurity, economic crisis, drought-like conditions and severe agroclimatic fluctuations. An estimated 12.1 million people are food insecure, of which 49 percent live in rural areas. Without urgent support, an additional 2.9 million people are at risk of becoming food insecure. Humanitarian response to support farming and livestock‑keeping families with restoring their production is critical. Every USD 1 invested to help a farmer grow wheat yields more than 4.5 times its value in staple food produced, for that family, their local community and markets. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileYemen: Humanitarian Response Plan 2024 2024
Also available in:
No results found.One in two Yemenis are acutely food insecure, and every other child under 5 years of age is stunted. Yemen imports 85 percent of its food, making the country highly vulnerable to price hikes and supply disruptions expected this year. Two out of three Yemenis have agricultural livelihoods, yet less than USD 2 out of USD 100 goes towards helping them to produce food. These families are most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change – for which Yemen ranks the third most vulnerable country. An effective humanitarian response in 2024 requires greater attention to agriculture, and those depending on it for food and income. This document provides a summary of the planned response and funding requirements of the Food and Agriculture Orgnization of the United Nations within the framework of the 2024 Humanitarian Response Plan for Yemen. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetEmergency responseYemen: Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan 2025 2025
Also available in:
No results found.Conflict, economic crisis and recurrent climate shocks continue to erode rural livelihoods in Yemen. Dependent on imports for almost all of its wheat and rice, Yemen is highly vulnerable to supply disruptions. Three in four people rely on agriculture, yet less than 1 percent of humanitarian funding to food sectors has supported food production over the past decade. As a result, one in two Yemenis faces acute food insecurity, and over half of children under 5 years of age suffer from acute malnutrition. An effective humanitarian response in 2025 must prioritize agricultural assistance to help families break free from reliance on food aid. This document provides a summary of the planned response and funding requirements of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations within the framework of the 2025 Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan for Yemen.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookRussian Federation: Meat sector review
Country highlights prepared under the FAO/EBRD Cooperation
2014Also available in:
World food demand has seen massive changes, including a shift from staple foods to animal proteins and vegetable oils. In the short to medium term, this trend in global food demand will continue. There will be an increased demand for vegetable oils, meat, sugar, dairy products and livestock feed made from coarse grains and oilseed meals. There are numerous mid-term forecasts for the Russian Federation’s meat sector. Most of them agree on the following trends: (i) the consumption of poultry and p ork meat will increase; (ii) the consumption of beef will decrease or stabilize; and (iii) the Russian Federation will remain a net importer of meat on the world market. According to OECD and FAO projections, meat imports from the Russian Federation will decrease from 3 to 1.3 million tonnes, owing to an anticipated growth in domestic chicken meat and pork production. The country’s share in global meat imports is anticipated to decrease from 12 percent in 2006–2010, to 4 percent in 2021. While t he Russian Federation will continue to play an important role in the international meat market, it will fall from its position as the largest meat importing country in 2006–2010 to the fourth largest global meat importer by 2021, behind Japan, sub-Saharan African countries, and Saudi Arabia. -

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.
