No results found.Durant la 2ème décade de janvier 2015, une zone dépressionnaire tropicale, accompagnée de rafales de vent plus ou moins tourbillonnantes, de 40 km/h en moyenne, s’est formée dans le canal de Mozambique. Elle s’est transformée en une tempête tropicale dénommée Chedza, avec des vents moyens de 75 km/h, avant d’entrer sur la côte ouest de Madagascar vers le 15 janvier. Cette tempête tropicale a traversé le pays, de Morondava à Mananjary, sur une bande de 250 km de large, et engendré des pluies impo rtantes ainsi que des vents violents si bien que les traitements ont été interrompus du 15 au 17 janvier 2015 (3 jours). Les vents ont entraîné une redistribution des populations imaginales. Corrélativement, l’abondance des pluies a provoqué un engorgement des sols et les oeufs ont été asphyxiés dans de nombreux biotopes des zones concernées. -

No results found.Durant la deuxième décade de janvier 2014, les estimations de FEWS indiquaient que la pluviométrie était supérieure à 65 mm dans l’Aire d’invasion et dans l’Aire grégarigène transitoire. Elle variait de 40 à 65 mm dans le reste de la Grande-Île. Une zone dépressionnaire s’est formée dans le canal du Mozambique, près des côtes ouest de Madagascar. Elle s’est dirigée vers le Sud/Sud-Est et a engendré des pluies excédentaires à hyper-excédentaires, notamment dans les compartiments Centre de l’Aire transitoire de multiplication et l’Aire de densation (annexe 1). Quant à la végétation, le taux de verdissement des strates herbeuses était de l’ordre de 100 % dans l’Aire d’invasion et variait de 80 à 100 % dans l’Aire grégarigène, selon les stations. La hauteur moyenne de la végétation variait de 10 à 35 cm selon les espèces et les localisations. -

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. -

No results found.The present report gives the complete description of the preparation of a land use map and also the preparation of a national map of livestock intensity, needed as LUS input. The present method allows the preparation of a multi-country land use map in two weeks with the work of 13 experts, and is comparable to the continuous of 130 working days. Further to that, the LUS has been validated with the support of GIS consultants. The report details the work realised during the workshop describing the LUS preparation for the United Republic of Tanzania. -
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.
