No results found.The main objective of the marketing strategy for canned seafood products to be produced by the Integrated Fisheries Project (IFP) of the Government of India is to popularize such products to a wider consume.r group in the Indian domestic market than is possible by the private sector at the present time, so that a large canning industry can be based on, and optimum use made of, the pelagic fish resources of India. A secondary aim is to provide samples for prospective exports but the limited produ ction capacity cannot expect to fill export orders. -
Book (stand-alone)NewsletterGLOBEFISH Highlights - A quarterly update on world seafood markets
1st issue 2021, with January–September 2020 Statistics
2021Also available in:
No results found.Since 1984, the FAO GLOBEFISH project (through a project unit established within the Fishery and Aquaculture Department of FAO www.fao.org/in-action/globefish) has been providing Governments, national and international stakeholders with relevant data, information and knowledge on fish trade in order to assist them in designing and implementing efficient and inclusive market and trade strategies. These strategies contribute to the sustainable development of the fish trade sector (including the economic, social and environmental aspects) and, at the same time, contribute to improving food and nutrition security and strengthening livelihood opportunities and are directly linked to SO4. The publication contains a detailed quarterly update on market trends for a variety of major commodities. Combining the price information collected for the European Price Report with other market survey data collected by FAO GLOBEFISH, the report provides a detailed update on market trends for a variety of major commodities. Key market data is presented in a time series tabular or graphical form with a written analysis of trends and key events and news affecting commodities such as tuna, groundfish, small pelagics, shrimp, salmon, fishmeal and fish oil, cephalopods, bivalves and crustacea.

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. -
ArticleJournal articleImpacts of the national forest rehabilitation plan and human-induced environmental changes on the carbon and nitrogen balances of the South Korean forests
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.The carbon (C) balance is a key to the climate regulation role of forests, and the nitrogen (N) balance affects forest productivity, ground and surface water quality, and the emission of N2O. Humans have impacted the C and N balances, but quantification of the responses of forests to human activities is limited. This study aimed to quantify the impacts of the long-term national forest rehabilitation plan and the contribution of the increase in air temperature, CO2 concentration, and N deposition on the C and N balance of the South Korean forests during 1973–2020 by using a biogeochemical model. The C and N balance increased from 0.20 to 4.30 Mg C ha–1 year–1 and from 0.20 to 17.4 kg N ha-1 year-1, respectively. This led to the whole South Korean forests to newly store 825 Tg C and 3.04 Tg N after the national forest rehabilitation plan. The increase in air temperature, CO2 concentration, and N deposition contributed –11.5, 17.4, and 177 Tg C for the newly stored C stock, respectively, and –25.4, 8.90, and 1,807 Mg N for the newly stored N stock, respectively. This study would provide references on the benefits of forest rehabilitation for the C and N balance and for future forest rehabilitation efforts. Moreover, our findings improve the understanding of the impacts of human activities on the C and N balance.
