Illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing is a global treat to sustainable fisheries and to the management and conservation of fisheries resources and marine biodiversity. Port state controls are now recognized as an effective tool to combat IUU fishing. This has been reinforced with the development of the 2009 FAO Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing. This publication is a three-volume set of training materials to b uild the institutional capacity of fisheries, maritime, customs and port staff in undertaking port state inspections. Successful trainees are expected to gain confidence and skills in participating as part of a team in port inspections, both independently and in concert with other competent port control authorities.

Book (stand-alone)Manual / guidePort State Measures – Species identification guide for fisheries inspectors / Mesures du ressort de l’État du port – Guide d’identification des espèces pour les inspecteurs des pêches 2022
Also available in:
No results found.This species identification guide has been developed by the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC) to improve the implementation of the IOTC Resolution on port State measures designed to prevent, deter and eliminate illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. The guide is designed to assist inspectors of IOTC fisheries accurately identify tuna and tuna like species, billfishes, sharks and other fish species commonly encountered when monitoring transhipments at sea or landings in ports, in the IOTC Area of Competence. It will also improve the accuracy of the information recorded and reported for species commonly caught in the IOTC tuna fisheries; and this in turn will improve the quality of information which the Commission will have to make management decisions. Ce guide d’identification des espèces a été élaboré par la Commission des thons de l’océan Indien pour améliorer la mise en oeuvre de la Résolution de la CTOI sur les mesures du ressort de l’État du port pour prévenir, dissuader et éliminer la pêche illégale, non déclarée et non réglementée. Le guide est conçu pour assister les inspecteurs des pêches de la CTOI à identifier les espèces de thonidés et espèces apparentées, les poissons à rostre, les requins et autres espèces de poissons couramment rencontrés lors du suivi des débarquements ou des transbordements des navires en mer ou dans les ports situés dans la zone de compétence de la CTOI. Ce guide vise à les assister à enregistrer et à rapporter les données précises sur les espèces couramment capturés dans les pêcheries thonières de la CTOI; cela améliorera la qualité de l’information dont la Commission bénéficiera pouvant être utilisées à des fins de gestion.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms. -
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. -
