MeetingMeeting documentReport and documentation of the Indian Ocean Tuna Fisheries of Indonesia Albacore Catch Estimation Workshop: Review of Issues and Considerations 2013
Also available in:
No results found.The Indian Ocean Tu Fisheries of Indonesia Albacore Catch Estimation Workshop was held in Bogor and Jakarta from 21 to 25 June 2013. The workshop was held in response to a request from the DGCF of Indonesia for the IOTC Secretariat to assist the DGCF with a review of catches of albacore in the Indian Ocean, following recommendations by the IOTC Scientific Committee and the Commission to assess the quality of the catches of albacore, in particular those reported by Indonesia. The main objective o f the workshop was to review the catches of albacore derived from data collected from the tu fisheries of Indonesia, and other altertive sources and, where required, produce a new catch series for albacore. During the workshop, invited experts discussed the data collection and data magement systems currently in place in Indonesia, the catches derived from the data collected, and agreed to recommend further actions to improve the estimates of albacore, and other species, in the future. Their disc ussions were informed and stimulated by one document and four presentations that covered a wide range of topics (Page 2). These included: DGCF’s sampling design, implementation, and official estimates of catches of albacore for the period 2002-12; status of implementation of Indonesia’s Vessel Monitoring System and summary of results (2012); status of implementation of Indonesia’s Logbook System and summary of results (2012- 13); exports of tu and tu-like species recorded by the Dis Perikan Prov incial Office in Bali (2002-12); catches of albacore by the fisheries of Indonesia in the IOTC Area (2002-12); catches of albacore by the fisheries of Indonesia in the WCPFC Area (2002-12); and imports of albacore recorded by canning factories cooperating with the Intertiol Seafood Sustaibility Foundation (2009-12). The Workshop concentrated its efforts in reviewing estimates of catch of albacore by vessels flagged in Indonesia, with a view to improve estimates of total catch, and catches by gea r, focusing on the period 2002-11. The new catch series of albacore, as adopted by the Workshop, is presented in Table 5 (Page 9). The Workshop identified various issues concerning the estimation of catches of albacore (page 12), in particular: incomplete reports from the fishing sector; insufficient monitoring of albacore in port, in particular frozen albacore; insufficient logbook coverage and poor quality of data reported on logbooks; insufficient monitoring of activities of Indonesia’s forei gn based fleet; poor species identification and insufficient training and supervision of enumerators; insufficient data magement and validation, in particular due to the fact that data from the districts are processed by hand, not using Indonesia’s centralized database system; and inordite changes in the catches of albacore, and other species, and breakdown by gear, between consecutive years. The Workshop noted that the above issues compromise the quality of estimates of catch of albacore, and o ther species, for the fisheries of Indonesia, and limit Indonesia’s capacity to comply with intertiol data requirements, in particular those agreed by the IOTC. In this regard, the Workshop proposed implementation of a range of actions (page 13) to address the issues identified and recommended that the DGCF make every possible effort to implement those actions, as required. The Workshop noted that the DGCF may require assistance in the implementation of some of the recommendations, and encourage d the continuation of coordited advice and support from the IOTC, the OFCF, WCPFC, SPC, and other governmental and non-governmental organizations, in the strengthening of data collection and processing activities in Indonesia. -
MeetingMeeting documentTropical tuna fisheries in the Indian Ocean of Indonesia 2013
Also available in:
No results found.Indonesia lays between two large continents i.e. Asia and Australia as well as two main oceans i.e. the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean with a wide coverage of marine waters within its jurisdiction. This strategic location provides various advantages for Indonesia, among those particularly in the tu fishery is the abundances of tropical tus surrounding its marine waters. The species of tropical tu that are commonly found in the area are yellowfin tu (YFT), bigeye tu (BET) and skipjack tu (SKJ). T hese species are targeted by various fishing gears such as tu longline (LL), purse seine (PS), pole and line (PL), hand line (HL), and gill net (GN). Among those, long line and purse seine are gears type that mainly contribute a significant catch from the total catch of tu. In the recent years, hand line also contributes significant catch following the former gears as consequences FADs use in hand line fishery. There are three types of longline operated by Indonesia fishers i.e. surface longline , middle long line and deep long line. Different depth of hooks from these three types of longline showed different catch composition and proportion. Size structure and distributions of YFT and BET caught by longline are also provided in this paper. -

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.

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. -
Book (stand-alone)Technical bookFood loss analysis: causes and solutions – The Republic of Uganda. Beans, maize, and sunflower studies 2019
Also available in:
No results found.This report illustrates the food loss assessment studies undertaken along the maize, sunflower and beans supply chains in Uganda in 2015-16 and 2016-17. They aimed to identify the critical loss points in the selected supply chains, the key stages at which food losses occur, why they occur, the extent and impact of food losses and the economic, social and environmental implications of the food losses. Furthermore, these studies also evaluated the feasibility of potential interventions to reduce food losses and waste.
